""You dumb bots wouldn't know success if it bit you on the bumper! But I... the baron of badness... the knight of nastiosity... am on the brink of my greatest success!""

- Dr. Ivo Robotnik, from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog

Animated frames of pure cholesterol.

"Ice King: I'm TOYING with you! PSYCOLOGICALLY!"
 * Lemongrab, from Adventure Time. Sweet mother of Glob, Lemongrab. What is his first line in the show, and the first thing he says when he enters the Candy Castle? "This Castle Is... In... Unacceptabllle Conditiiion! UNACCEPTABLLLEEE!!!" Though many, if not most, of the characters in Adventure Time are large hams, our pal LG takes the cake as the largest ham, thanks to his shrill, high-pitched, constantly shrieking voice, unnecessary charisma, and sheer, undiluted rage towards everything that even remotely disagrees with him.
 * How could we not mention the Ice King? The man is total ham.

"Randy: STAAAAAAN?!? STAAAAAAAN!"
 * In Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Long John Baldry did a fantastic portrayal of Dr. Robotnik this way. Here are a few choice lines.
 * "Sonic is trapped in there! And the rest of Mobius is out here! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha! And it's mine! IT'S MINE! All mine! ALL MINE!!!"
 * "Did I say that already?"
 * "How dare anyone on Mobius laugh at the great Dr. Robotnik!? No one makes fun of me! No one! Whoever is responsible for this outrage will be my first prisoner! (jumps into the air) BRING ME THE VILE CREATURE WHO DREW THIS CARTOON!!!"
 * "Sonic fell for it! Tails is ours! I'll have to give myself a Prrrromotion!"
 * "SnooPING AS usual, I seeeeee..."
 * The monologue at the beginning of "Blackbot the Pirate" is a veritable banquet of ham.
 * It's not one of his most known quotes, but easily the quote of Robotnik's that best describes him is "300 pounds of ham!"
 * Coach McGuirk from Home Movies, especially in the Episode where he's deprived of sleep.
 * DVD PLAYER!
 * Eric Cartman and several other characters in South Park.
 * Starting in the eighth season, Randy Marsh makes sure to make every little thing overly dramatic.

"Ruber: Now this chicken... CAN KILL!!! TA-DA!"
 * Watch the epic hamminess of Baron Ruber's Villain Song, and you will see why he takes this trope Up to Eleven.

"Blackarachnia: Why do you always talk to yourself?
 * Megatron from Transformers: Beast Wars. He's over-the-top because he's an egotistical megalomaniac with a flair for drama, but a credible threat nonetheless; suave, intelligent, and ruthless. At one point, he mugs for the camera while stepping on someone he'd just shot to prevent them from getting up. His megalomania is rather charming in its way, yeeeessss....

Megatron: I simply have a penchant for, intelligent conversation."

"Harold Zoid: I got a part in a fancy DVD-movie! It's only one line but I'm gonna ham it up like you wouldn't believe!"
 * And he's not the only Megatron/Galvatron to have a taste for pork. Note that the Unicron Trilogy version is also voiced by David Kaye. While he's not supposed to actually be the Beast Wars version, the ham will sometimes emerge. Especially in Armada, in which he is obsessed with his Evil Laugh. (Basically, take his laugh from this clip and multiply it by basically every episode. At times, he'll even start laughing, wind down... then spontaneously start up again.)
 * Megatron is a Large Ham in pretty much every version. (he's even in the Film section) The Original Series Megatron loved his Evil Laugh and his speeches, and even the Animated version gets his moments of ham.
 * Frank Welker did say, about his role as G1 Megatron, that "my goal in this business was always to see if I could make [Peter Cullen] laugh water through his nose".
 * The Animated version of Starscream is a strong contender for biggest ham of the series, and still quite dangerous. When Bumblebee blasts him with electricity while he was talking to Megatron, his reply is to grab Bumblebee, pull him to within an inch of his face, and shout, "You interrupted MY SPEEEEEEEEEEECH!"
 * In Cybertron, after growing to giant size BY TRANSFORMER STANDARDS, that series' Starscream becomes an incredibly large ham. And Megatron's hamminess only increases after he becomes Galvatron.
 * The Original Series Starscream was hamtastic at times too. And speaking of...
 * Cobra Commander, "RETREAT, RETREAT!". But he was out-hammed by Serpentor. "THIS, I COMMAND!"
 * "I am Wreck-Gar! I dare to be stupid!" See also "Music".
 * Rampage from Beast Wars, especially in his first appearance. "Yes, feel it! FEEL THE FEAR!"
 * In the same series, Terrorsaur seems to get significantly hammier in "Power Surge" after being supercharged.
 * Caliburst, a Nebulan Targetmaster, was such a ham actor it's said that his work isn't appreciated so much as endured. He does, however, put up a convincing front of bravery in and out of battle, encouraging his partner Slugslinger in the process.
 * Who could forget the literally planet-sized ham that is Unicron? Especially when he's voiced by Orson Welles himself.
 * While Unicron's good counterpart, Primus, isn't nearly as talkative, when he does speak up, it is with an appropriate tone of Biblical proportions.
 * Optimuses tend to be rather hammy by default. They don't say anything particularly hammy; they don't even raise their voice all that much. It's just that, especially when voiced by Peter Cullen, they simply exude enough gravitas to choke a yak, which is more than enough to compensate. You can feel the weight of their words.
 * Which is made all the better in War for Cybertron, where if you play on the Autobot team in multiplayer, Optimus Prime becomes your announcer. "Punch of Kill Everything equipped!", anyone?
 * Lugnut. Especially when it came to his grand and GLORIOUS leader.
 * Mentok the Mindtaker on Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law, who constantly plays up his own powers when he's not being a Deadpan Snarker. Say it with me now... Ooooweeee ooweeeeeeee!
 * Yosemite Sam from Looney Tunes. Among other things, he's the self-proclaimed "Fastest gun north, south, east AAAAAAAND west of the Pecos!" and rarely speaks in anything below a full-bodied shout.
 * Also Foghorn Leghorn, the boisterous--I say, boisterous, motor-mouthed rooster.
 * In the cartoons where he has a voice, Wile E Coyote and The Road Runner.... SUUUUUPERRRRR GEEEEEEENIUSSSSSSSS!
 * Zapp Brannigan in Futurama. In fact, the character was originally pitched as "What if William Shatner were the captain of the Enterprise instead of Kirk?"
 * Also from Futurama, Calculon, with his literally "unholy.. acting.. TALENT!!"
 * Your ham fills me with [Beat] sorrowww, [beat] ANGER!, [beat] feeear, every emotion an actor can display.
 * And all of the Omicron Persei VIII aliens, especially Lrrr and his wife Ndnd. (Would you like to buy a vowel?)
 * This concept of ham CONFUSES and INFURIATES US!!
 * MORBO!!
 * HAM DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!!! GOODNIGHT!!!
 * MORBO MOCKS YOUR FOOLISH HAM!!! IT WILL BE DESTROYED IN THE UPCOMING INVASION!!! Now for sports.
 * HELLO TINY HAM, I WILL DESTROY YOU!!!!!!!
 * "Welcome, to the WORLD of TOMORROW!"
 * "Shut up, Terry."
 * Hilariously lampshaded in the movie Beast With A Billion Backs:

"Nine: So dig this, Fry. Our commune has been monitoring the universe's life energy for, like, a really long time, and we're grokking some super weird junk.
 * Number 9 Guy does this Into the Wild Green Yonder, with coaching from Fry:

Fry: Um, I don't mean to be rude, but it's kind of hard to take you seriously when you say junk like "grok" and "junk."

Nine: What about "commune"?

Fry: Especially "commune." Come on, it's the fate of the universe, puff it up a little. Like you could say your ancient order is sensing deep upheaval in the cosmic life energy field.

[Everybody murmurs.]

Nine: Okay. I'll try. So, like, a really, really long time ago... [Fry motions "longer" with his hands.] Eons ago? [Fry nods, approvingly] EONS ago!"

""THIS BOX CONTAINS OUR OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWN UNIVERSE!""
 * Bender, just...just Bender.
 * Professor Farnsworth:

""MAGIC RUNES, laddie!""
 * Hedonism-Bot! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
 * Storm felt the need to shout loud proclamations and poetic verses while using her powers in X-Men. One of Rogue's very first lines in the series is a comment that she should ease up a little.
 * Hell, Storm even said normal things dramatically, like once when she and Cyclops had to split up, Storm's parting words were "I SHALL MEET YOU AT THE MONORAIL!"
 * This troper is particularly fond of the line "It is an AMBULANCE!"
 * Big Bad Apocalypse is also pretty hammy.
 * Pretty hammy? He is as much hammier than mutants as they are above you. He is the ham ETERNAL! And he's voiced by no less than John Colicos - aka Kor, the first Klingon in Star Trek. Who of course returned in DS9 even hammier than he was in TOS.
 * After seven years of wonderful, nuanced work on Star Trek the Next Generation, Patrick Stewart now does the voice of Bullock, Stan's CIA boss on American Dad, and he is a huge ham.
 * Stan is as well. And then there's Roger...
 * Speaking of Patrick Stewart and overly-sized pork products, he parodied Sean Connery's porky cameo as King Richard in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves by delivering a high-fat-and-cholesterol-filled performance of same in Robin Hood: Men In Tights. Because, as everyone knows... "It's good to be the king."
 * "Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shapeshifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an  unspeakable ham! But, a foolish samurai warrior, wielding a magic sword, stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow was struck, I TWORE open a portal in time, and flung him into the future, where my evil is LAW! Now the fool seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is AKU!!!"
 * His first line (asides from the opening sequence) is both hammy and awesome, despite it being said in a rather quiet voice: "Once again I am free to smite the world as I did in days long past."
 * The Spanish dub out-hams it, as Aku has... well, this voice.
 * "ENOUGH! This next story is true to its utmost detail! Once, there was an all-powerful, all-mighty wizard, and a pathetic little samurai. And the wizard  DESTROYED HIM!!! THE END!"
 * "Once upon a time, there was a cute little girl WITH GREAT FLAAAMING EYEBROWS!"
 * "Samurai, samurai...WHY WON'T YOU DIEEEE!!"
 * The series has another large haggis- er, ham, in the Scotsman. Big, bold, brash, and very strong, his voice just doesn't seem to have a volume control . In his first appearance, there's a point where Jack is surprised that an attack of his did not break the Scotsman's sword. The Scotsman's response?

"Scarecrow: I am the master of fear! The lord of despair! Cower before me and witness terror!
 * Limburger from the original Biker Mice From Mars series was a bit like this on most occasions and also a Small Name, Big Ego. From the new series there's Ronaldo Rump and also Hairball.
 * The Batman version of The Joker. The DCAU version to a lesser extent.
 * The DCAU Joker was particularly hammy in an early episode "The Last Laugh", with lines such as "You're going to MELT just like a griiilled cheeeeese sandwiiich!" and, lest we forget, "You killed Captain Clown. YOU KILLED CAPTAIN CLOWN!!!"
 * It's probably telling that the Joker had the most frequent Do Not Adjust Your Set plots, so he could broadcast his villainous (and hammy) acts to the world. Hell, let's just say if you're playing the Joker, you're gonna ham it up.
 * DCAU Joker was played by Mark HAMill, who would practice his evil laughs when driving along LA highways, trying to be as hammy as possible.
 * The Scarecrow in Batman the Animated Series. Especially when he's getting hauled back to Arkham:

Harley Quinn: Hi, Professor Crane.

Scarecrow: Good evening, child... Worship me, fools! Worship me! Scream hosannas of anguish to Scarecrow, the all-terrible God of Fear!"

"Penguin (telling his story to the other crooks): Greetings, Batman! You have taken the bait, as I knew you would. Now, prepare to meet your end, within my Aviary of Doom!
 * Harley Quinn ain't no slouch either, puddin'. Ditzy attitude + Joisey accent you could cut with a chainsaw + total batshit crazy infatuation with Mistah J = Masterclass in Minion Ham.
 * The Penguin has his moments as well. Lampshaded in the episode Almost Got 'im:

Poison Ivy (interrupting): Aviary of WHAT?

Joker: Yeesh, Pengers! How corny can you get?

Penguin: Fah! Just because you mundane miscreants have no drama in your souls! Anyway, there he was in my av... uh, big birdhouse..."

"Black Mask: And when he shows up to shut us down, I want a party waiting for him! And by party, I really mean A WHOLE BUNCH OF GUYS WHO ARE GONNA KILL HIM!"
 * Black Mask chews the scenery in pretty much all of his scenes in Batman Under the Red Hood.

"Zim: Help?! You?!
 * Invader Zim: "WHO??? WHO DID THIS??? WHO DARES TO SOIL MY NORMAL BOY HEAD WITH THIS... PORK COW?"
 * Zim is the king of this trope. Pretty much every single line he says has him screaming something.
 * Don't forget GIR. "I WAS THE TURKEY ALL ALOOOONG!!"
 * "DUMB LIKE A MOOSE!"
 * Richard actually pointed this out several times, saying that Zim is the hardest role he's ever done, because even his NORMAL speaking voice is shouting.
 * Interestingly enough, when Dib breaks into his house during the Halloween special, he doesn't start yelling until after Dib ignores pretty much everything he says.

Dib: You're the only one with the technology--

Zim: HELP?!?! YOU?!?! Come to me? Your greatest, most amazing enemy? Your future slave-master and you ask for HELP?!?"

""Mortal enemies, teaming up for THE GREATER GOOD!""
 * Ham seems to be a class feature of Irkens, whether it's the Almighty Tallest ("Soon, all the races of the universe will serve... the IRKEN EMPIRE!"), Tak ("I should have been an Invader! I should have been part of the Great Assigning! I shouldn't have to be stealing this planet from you!"), or even little Skoodge ("So that no Irken boot has to come into contact with any unsavoury alien filth! HOO-AH!")

""There ARE no curses, son! *contorts* MUHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!""
 * "THE HIDEOUS FORTESS OF SCREAMING PAIN!!"

"I AM THE SHADOW HOG! WHAT IS IT YOU WANT FROM ME, CHILD WHO CONJURED ME, AND CHILD WHO WAS BLESSED WITH PIG SENSES?"
 * The Shadow Hog. The name alone is hammy.

"Do not be too hasty to enter. For I had... TACO BELL FOR LUNCH.
 * Just about any character played by Richard Steven Horvitz is going to be a ham in some fashion or another. See: The hammily demented Daggett Beaver of The Angry Beavers, the hammily moronic Billy of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, and the hammily... well, I don't know what to call him--Rodney in Squirrel Boy.
 * Raz wasn't a ham. Sadly.
 * That's only if you compare him to the veritable World of Ham that Psychonauts takes place in. I refer you to the purpose of the goggles.
 * Since Daggett was mentioned, Norbert Beaver also qualifies as a Ham.
 * With his trusty HELMUUUUUUTTTTT!!!!!!
 * Powerpuff Girls. "You cannot defeat me, for I am undefeatable, I am Moooooojoooo Jojo! That is my name, Mojo Jojo. The name I am telling you, for it is mine."
 * While we're on the subject, Him fits this too.
 * The Venture Brothers' Doctor Orpheus:

Fetch me my BLUE WINDBREAKER!"

"With every fiber of my being, I stab at thee! As long as blood flows through this heart, I will hunt you down! I will be the stuff of your children's nightmares! *muffled* ...AND THEN, when nothing can be heard but your cries of agony, I will PULL THE CHAIN and let the beast devour you! Mark my words...I will have my revenge... DOCTOR VENTURE!!"
 * And the Monarch can ham it up with the best of them when he's in his full-on villain mode.

""I'm going to spend my vacation AT THE LIBRARY!!!"
 * IGNORE ME!!!
 * "...Yes, Dr. Venture, WIRED! Like a bomb strapped to a killer whale, set to go off the moment you try to free yourself!!"
 * Captain Sunshine: "WONDERBOOOOOY!!! WONDERBOOOOOOOY!!!"
 * Mr. Impossible has some of it as well, in early episodes. Being played by Stephen Colbert didn't hurt. He tends to be hammy in the Mad Scientist sense.
 * Avatar: The Last Airbender is a series just bursting with Large Hams. Not only villains and main characters, but lots of secondary and even one-time characters as well.
 * Over reacting to almost everything, Sokka hams it up a couple of times every spisode.

"APPA ATE MOMO!!""

""What would a boy know of destiny? If a fish lives its whole life in this river, does he know the river's destiny? NO! Only that it runs on and on out of his control! He may follow where it flows, but he cannot see the end. He cannot imagine the ocean!"
 * Jeong Jeong. Every line that Jeong Jeong said was super serious and dramatic, especially when he angsted about how much of a BURDEN firebending is. Add to that that his voice itself is quite hammy, no matter what he is saying. Hey, his pupil Zhao had to get it from somewhere.

"I've always wished I were blessed like you . Free of this BURNING CURSE."

"Water brings healing and life. Fire brings only DESTRUCTION and PAIN.""

""You're weak! Just like the rest of your people! They did not deserve to exist in this world, in my world! Prepare to join them! Prepare to DIIIIIIE!"
 * And let's not forget Ozai (HAMill again) in the finale

"I have all the power IN THE WORLD!""

"'Yes! We have defeated you for all time! YOU WILL NEVER RISE FROM THE ASHES OF YOUR SHAME AND HUMILIATION!''... Well, that was fun.
 * Like in everything else, Azula follows closely in her father's footsteps. Unlike lots of other Large Hams, she doesn't have to resort to shouting every single one of her lines. Instead she has the overwhelming charisma and just the right amount of insanity to make almost everyone cower before her instinctively. Then, once they are shaking with fear, THE HAM IS UNLEASHED!

Azula "Together, you and I will be the strongest couple in the entire world. WE WILL DOMINATE THE EARTH! (columns of blue fire burst from her hands)

Chan: "*Idiot Crows* Uh... I gotta go.""

"Zhao: "I am... a legend now. The Fire Nation will for generations tell stories about the great Zhao, who darkened the moon! They will call me Zhao the Conqueror! Zhao the Moon Slayer! Zhao, the INVINCIBLE!!!""
 * Azula appears just right after Season One villain Zhao was defeated (even the same episode). When it came to hamminess, her predecessor was just like her.

""I AM MELLON-LORD!!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!"
 * While usually more of the Deadpan Snarker type, Toph also enjoys some really good hamming from time to time. Usually while beating the crap out of large numbers of much larger men by throwing around boulders. Among other things, giving the (intentionally) most hammy performence of the entire series:

"WHOOOO!!! Toph, you rule!"

"What's your fighting name? The Fancy Dancer?!"

"Please, do people really want to see two little girls fighting?""

""I'm so filled with hope that I'm TEARBENDING!"
 * Before any of that, we were given the "Professional Earthbenders", especially "The Boulder." Let's see...he's a pastiche of Dwayne Johnson, both in looks (sort of) and personality (Johnson's legendary character The Rock), and is voiced by another professional wrestler, Mick Foley, who is a friend of The Rock's and can be -- and has been -- as over-the-top and cheesy as other wrestlers. One listen to The Boulder's lines tells you that Mick was having a grand old time voicing The Boulder.
 * Being one of the greatest Self Parodies in recent years, The Ember Island Players are overacting the entire time, trying to out ham each other.

"HONOOOOOOOOOOR!""

"I'd like to hear from Sideshow Mel."
 * The prison warden who imprisons Haru. It helps that he's voiced by George Takei.
 * Frank Welker did it again with Inspector Gadget's Dr. Claw, which is impressive given the raspy deep voice he had. "GAAAAAAAAAAAADGET!"
 * "I'll GET YOU GADGET! I'LL GET YOUUUUUUUUU!"
 * The Simpsons: "Duffman! Oooooh Yeah!"
 * DUFFMAN CAN'T BREATHE! OOOOH NO!
 * Three words: "Agggh, Sideshow Bob!"
 * Krusty The Clown.

""They'll clog the instruments!", "Oh my God, the ants are shorting out our navigation systems!", etc."
 * SIDESHOW MEL takes this to RRRIDICULOUS new HEEEIGHTS!!
 * Deep Space Homer, Race Banyon (played by Hank Azaria)

"Troy: "WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?"
 * Also, Troy McClure (shows the most during the musical version of Planet of the Apes he stars in.)

Dr. Zaius: "I think you're crazy."

Troy: "I WANT A SECOND OPINION!"

Dr. Zaius: "You're also lazy.""

""DAMN IT! I haven't been to the Olive Garden in like FOREVER!"
 * The Tick. His conversational style is the verbal equivalent of Mundane Made Awesome, even when he isn't monologuing about Good and Evil.
 * Not to mention that in the live-action version, he was played by scene connoisseur Patrick Warburton.
 * Most of the villains would qualify too, particularly the Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight.
 * Let's not forget El Seed. "No one could survive that much corn!"
 * Scooby Doo: Scooby and possibly Shaggy.
 * "Oh, what a ham."
 * The Narrator of Dave the Barbarian, whose thrill-packed Purple Prose is often hilariously at odds with the mundane activities shown onscreen.
 * Even a small ham can be a Large Ham, as evidenced by The Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy And he is MADE of ham.
 * Freakazoid. Know what? Considering both Freakazoid and the previously-mentioned Chuckles the Silly Piggy, can we just say that any character voiced by Paul Rugg falls under this?
 * I guess so. Mr. Director from Animaniacs and Nostradamus from Histeria! also fall under this, as does Rugg's live-action character of Manny the Uncanny from Disney's One Saturday Morning.
 * Mr. Guitierrez definitely counts. If you need proof, just remember that "HE IS NOT A WHEENIE! YOOOOOOU ARE THE WHEENIE!!!"
 * "CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!"
 * "He asked me to SET FIRE TO THE SUN!"
 * He is later upstaged by THE REGURGITATOR! *Dramatic Thunder*
 * "You can start by making me a FRESH POT OF COFFEE!" *Dramatic Thunder*
 * The Histeria! episode with the Wright Brothers has Froggo asking them for a bag of marshmallows and a crate of leeches, and then later for a tambourine and a vat of spam; both times they tell him no. His responses: "NO?! NO?! OH NOO! NO, IT CAN'T BE!! AAAHHHHH!!!!" and "NO! NO! NOOOOO!! THIS IS A DISASTER!!!"
 * Most cartoon knocks off of Elvis Presley in cartoons such as Johnny Bravo.
 * Prof. Cinnamon J. Scudwerth.

"STAMOS!""

""Don't interrupt! I'm on a roll!""
 * The Pusher. Nuff said.
 * Oberon in Gargoyles. He pulls it off, too.
 * Also to a lesser extent, Matt Frewer as Jackal. Come to think of it, Matt Frewer is a ham overall. So... says... the LEADER!
 * And, of course, Puck.

""I've been denied everything...even my REVENGE!""
 * Let's not forget Dr. Sevarius, played by the always-hammy Tim Curry.
 * And Thailog, who actively cultivates an Evil Laugh and genuinely revels in his villainy, though he can be dangerously understated when he really wants to be scary.
 * The Archmage is also a pretty melodramatic guy.
 * Don't forget Xanatos's occasional forays into Large Ham territory, though he always manages to Lampshade them. Which makes the moments hammier, since he's obviously playing it up for the sheer joy of it.
 * Goliath has his hammy moments as well.

"The Sun? THE SUN. to feel the sun (Beat) again, to feel the wind, To be... IN THE DAY WORLD, to be... FREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!"
 * Skull Master from Mighty Max. I think Tim Curry's favorite food is ham, such as when he returns to the surface.

"I don't know if I should talk to you, OR KILL YOU!!!"
 * Christopher Lloyd's role as "Hacker" on Cyberchase involves reading each line in a maniacal howl.
 * Mr Blik from Catscratch and any other character voiced by Wayne Knight.
 * In Re Boot, Hexadecimal can go from subdued to large ham on a whim. Usually with a suitable change of face to go with it.

"I don't offer you just anything - I OFFER YOU EVVVVVVVERYTHING!
 * Greetings and bienvenue, Tropers! You may remember V. V. Argost from his delightful telelvision progam, V. V. Argost's Weird World... Or perhaps from the Evil Plan that's slowly but surely leading him to world domination. Did I mention you have a MacGuffin he'd very much like back?
 * Mok from Rock and Rule:

I'm the biggest thing since World War III!

She can sing or SHE CAN SCREAM! (calmly) But she still pissed me off.

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! I... AM... MOK!"

"Darkwing: I caught that hateful, underhanded ham Tuskerninni robbing a bank!
 * The title character from Darkwing Duck, particularly when he's monologing. Over on the villain side, we have Negaduck (whose hammy nature is befitting, as he's DW's Evil Twin), and Tuskerninni, an ex-actor/director turned criminal:

Tuskernini: Objection! I am not a ham!"

"Mine, mine, mine, mine!
 * Speaking of ducks, the orginal Large Ham duck Daffy Duck.

Aha! I'm going to be the hero of this picture!

Wait! I haven't tried toadying, kowtowing and butt-kissing yet! I'm still begging here!

Your duck? Bah! I belong to the world.

Hey, come here! Come here! Give me a close-up. A close-up!

All right. Enough is enough. This is the final, the - the very, very last straw! Who's responsible for this? This... I demand that you show yourself! Who are you? Huh?"

"(Coming out of Porky's refrigerator dressed in winter gear) "What a trip! What a trip! Blizzards all the way! Snow 20 feet deep! But we had to get that serum through! It was mush, mush, mush all night! (Grabbing the dog and pushing him like a sled dog) Come on, mush, mush, mush, mush, mush! Suddenly, the glacier cracks! There's a roar! Tons of ice! No escape! AAAAAAAHHHHHHH! How things been with you?""
 * And his hammiest line of all.

"Bugs Bunny: I speak softly, but I carry a BIIIIG stick.
 * Heck, most Looney Tunes characters have their moments of ham. Even Yosemite Sam:

Sam: Oh yeah? Well I SPEAK LOOOOOOOOUD, and I carry A BIIIIIIIGER STICK! And I USE IT TOO!"

""NOOOOOOO! STOP STAAAAAARING AT MEEEEEEEE!"
 * Mrs. Claus introduces Snow Miser in The Year Without a Santa Claus by saying "Here he comes, the big ham."
 * His brother, the Heat Miser, might actually be an even bigger ham.
 * That's a mystery but they're hammy in their own special as well.
 * Both Jabba The Hutt and his evil uncle Ziro in Star Wars the Clone Wars. Ziro in particular seeing as his voice is based on Truman Capote. One day Ah'll rule tha hutts!.
 * Most characters on My Gym Partners a Monkey act like this. Jake Spidermonkey being the most obvious example.
 * The Spectacular Spider Man has Mysterrrrrio, who, true-to-form, embodies and revels in this trope.
 * Doc Ock hams it up quite a bit. "TREACHERYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"
 * "ARACHNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID!!!"
 * Also Green Goblin, though.
 * And he's voiced by Steve Blum.
 * Spider Man the Animated Series from the early nineties, which has pretty much every character fall into hamminess at one point, especially the villains.
 * Special mention goes to Neil Ross as Norman Osborn / the Green Goblin, who has not a single line that isn't pure 100% pork.

"Ohhh... Peter Parker's here! Now the party can really begin!""

""I told you NOT TO CALL ME NAMES!""
 * Also, the Scorpion.

"Yeeeeeeesss...YEEEEEESSSS! We RECALL replicating...
 * No love for Venom?

Say...ALOHA!!!"

""Great singers don't need a chorus!" *jazz hands*"
 * For that matter, where's the love for Peter? Particularly in his black suit. "SHOCKEEEEEEER! YOU CAN'T ESCAPE ME! I'LL CHASE YOU TO THE ENDS OF THE EAAAAAAAAAARTH!"
 * Codename: Kids Next Door gives us Moosk, who is both an exceptionally large ham and an affectionate parody of Minsc, also voiced by Jim Cummings. "Spray starch?! SPRAY STARCH!!!"
 * How can we forget Father?
 * Batman the Brave And The Bold gives us Aquaman, Boisterous Bruiser par excellence and King of the Seas!!
 * OUTRAGEOUS!
 * It also gave us MUSICAL HAM in the form of THE MUSIC MEISTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!
 * Does Brak count as a Large Ham?
 * Major Glory from Dexters Laboratory.
 * "DEE DEE! GET OUT OF MY LA-BOR-A-TOR-Y!!
 * You are styoopid! You are styoopid! And you know what else? YOU ARE STYOOPID!! (and this wasn't even the regular voice actress!)
 * "AT LAST! MY GRRRREATEST CREATION IS COM-PLEEEE-TED!"  *holds up a plate of cookies*
 * Dr Weird from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. There's his Catch Phrase "Gentlemen...BEHOLD!" and then there is his tendency to announce even the most mundane of actions in a loud booming voice. "Observe, as I...ADJUST THE HEAT! MWA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAA!!"
 * "Gentlemen... BEHOLD! I have made LOVE to this MACHINE! And now, upon retrospect, I ASK WHY!"
 * "Gentlemen... I BRING YOU...  MORE CORN!!!" 
 * Master Shake as well.
 * On the villain side, Doctor Wongburger and balloon Hitler.
 * Mother Brain of Captain N the Game Master, who was voiced by the lead singer of The Four Tops. Always dramatic, always flamboyant, always fantastic.
 * The eponymous Big Guy of Big Guy and Rusty The Boy Robot is prone to making pronouncements like this one: "No not of this Earth surgical probe wielding invaders are going to deprive this planet's children, and their growing bones, of even one glass of wholesome milk!" The contrast between the understated, somewhat cynical Lieutenant Hunter and the overblown, jingoistic personality he takes on while piloting the Big Guy mech goes a long way to explain why almost no one ever catches on that they are one and the same.
 * Lydia from Barbie and The Diamond Castle definitely comes off as one of these, especially considering her villainous motivation.

"(while combing his hair) "There, how could Candy possibly resist me now? (looks at his comb) What's this?! Hair?! My hair?!? AAAAHHHH!!! My hair's falling out! Don't panic, don't panic. I've got just the tonic. 'For beautiful manageable hair'. 'For full-bodied hair'. 'For silky hair'. WHAT ABOUT FALLING OUT HAIR!? Keep calm, I'll... I'll combine them all together!"
 * Technus from Danny Phantom defines this. "I...AM TECHNUS! GHOST MASTER OF SCIENCE AND ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY!"
 * Sam actually uses this against him the first time they fight by asking him to shout out his name and motive. He happily complies, giving Sam and Tucker time to upload a virus.
 * Let's not forget Super Danny from Identity Crisis. "I'm not alright, I'm DANNY FENTON!"
 * And brilliantly, Technus fights Super Danny in Identity Crisis, so. ..
 * "I am the BOX GHOST! BEWARE!"
 * Urban Jungle: "I AM EVERYWHERE!!!"
 * While we're on the topic of Butch Hartman, why is Denzel Q Crocker such a huge ham? There's only one logical explanation...FAIRY GOD PARENTS!
 * Mark Chang.
 * MANURE! THAT'S LIKE, THE RAREST OF ALL DELICACIES ON MY PLANET! WHY ARE YOU WASTING SUCH A DELICIOUS TREAT ON SUCH HIDEOUS PETUNIAS?!?!?!?!
 * AAAHH!! THE CUTENESS!!! IT BURNS!!!
 * I will suck out your brains...through these bendy straws!
 * Dr. Rip Studwell, as voiced by Mr Hartman himself.
 * Johnny from Tales Of Worm Paranoia from What a Cartoon Show. "YOU FILTHY CHILDREN!"
 * Alvin from Sabrina the Animated Series. "Don't EVER laugh at me!"
 * Brother Blood from Teen Titans has a flair for the dramatic and a tendency to go quite over the top when his plans are working (or when they're not and he's angry at someone because of it, for that matter). Word of God says this was done deliberately to make a contrast with the previous two seasons' Big Bad, Slade.
 * NOTHING CAN DEFEAT THE BRILLIANCE OF DR. LIGHT!
 * The singer for the Dutch Duck Tales opening hams up the singing to a new cholesterol level. Hear it for yourself.
 * Although she usually behaves like the very opposite of a ham, Misery from Ruby Gloom sometimes gets into this role with remarkable ease:
 * "I'm also the Queen of Disasters, by the way. And the Princess. And the Baroness. And the Countess!! And the Viscountess!! THE EMPRESS!!!"
 * "BEWARE!!!...of the cupboard!"
 * "As my great-great-great-aunt used to say whenever she got BLASTED out of a volcano...well, she mostly just screamed. But the point is: Try, try and try again!"
 * Misery seems to be some kind of inflatable ham, who can slip in and out of hammy acting at the drop of a hat. Many of her lines are half ham, half deadpan.
 * Scaredy Bat also has his moments of ham as well.
 * Green Arrow in Justice League. Particularly in the episode where he attacked a submarine while singing his own theme music.
 * The Pincushion Man
 * Johnny Test is a buffet of ham, especially Johnny, Dukey (when he's not being a Deadpan Snarker) and pretty much all the villains in the show.
 * Bluto from Popeye. Olive Oyl even sang about it in a Romeo and Juliet based musical in one of the cartoons.
 * "Get out scram/Clumsy ham!/You're a monkey/With a beard."
 * COLONEL H. MOTHERFUCKIN' STINKMEANER! HOLLA ATCHA BOY! I GETS MONEY! BITCH-ASS NYUKKA!
 * Dan Backslide from The Dover Boys Chuck Jones short. "A runabout! I'LL STEAL IT! NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!"
 * The entire cast of Chowder, but the title character in particular, with Mung Daal a close second.
 * It's taken this long to include the original old-timey, tie-a-babe-to-the-railroad-tracks, foreclose-on-a-sobbing-widow, top-hatted, cackling bad guy, Snidely Whiplash? Shame on you, tropers.
 * Bluster Kong needs to be listed simply for this one scene from the episode "Hunka Hunka Burnin' Bluster":

(Later...)

"Ugh, what a smell. I can't use this. So what if I've lost a bit of hair? (looks at his comb again) AAAHH!! More hair! I'm shedding!!""

"Tzekel-Kan: I KNOW what you are. and I KNOW what you are NOT. And you are NOT. GODS!!!"
 * The Big Bad King K. Rool. I dare anybody to find a line of his that isn't hammy to some extent.
 * LEMME TELL YA SOMETHIN', TV TROPES!! NO ALIEN IS AS HAMMY AS RATH IS! WANNA FIGHT ABOUT IT?! COME ON, LET'S FIGHT!!!
 * Albedo demands "BRING ME CHILLI FRIES!"
 * Filmations Ghostbusters is, in many people's opinion, a fairly tedious animated series. However, it does have the magnificently malevolent Prime Evil as portrayed by Alan Oppenheimer. Prime Evil alone makes it well worth the price of admission.
 * Nigel Thornberry of The Wild Thornberrys, voiced by Tim Curry, is pure ham.
 * "Helloooooo, I'm Nigel Thornberry."
 * Tzekel-Kan of The Road to El Dorado is also a rather large ham.

"Skipper: The Clock. Is. Ticking.
 * "Now EVERYONE will know the truth... of your... DIVINITY!"
 * Can Richard Newman, as the voice of M. Bison in the animated Street Fighter series, really compete with Raul Julia's live action portrayal of the character for sheer hamminess? Yes! Yes! See the context of this deliciousness here.
 * Lucius from Jimmy Two-Shoes.
 * Ed Bighead from Rocko's Modern Life.
 * Just his voice and the way he talks is extremely hammy.
 * In fact, I think most characters voiced by Charlie Adler fall under this, since Ickis, The Red Guy and Mr. Whiskers are quite large hams themselves.
 * And let's not forget Mumm-Ra, THE EVER-LIVING!!!
 * Omi, Raimundo, and most of the villains from Xiaolin Showdown for that matter.
 * Skipper from The Penguins of Madagascar. Especially evident in the episode "In the Line of Doody."

Kowalski: Sooo... were those dramatic pauses really necessary then?

Skipper: (Dramatic pause) Yes."

"Hot plate. Very hot plate."
 * Michael Bell's Lex Luthor in the Ruby-Spears Superman cartoon. Probably because aside from his occupation as a Corrupt Corporate Executive, most of the inspiration for the character came from Gene Hackman's portrayal in the films.
 * Stanley Chan in The Amazing Chan and The Chan Clan, especially when he's in one of his many disguises.
 * Do you know what Metalocalypse's Doctor Rockzo the Rock n Roll Clown does?
 * No mention of Candace Flynn from Phineas and Ferb? She's always dramatically overreacting to everything.
 * "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY PARADISE?!!"
 * Possibly Khaka Pëu Pëu, featured in the episode "The Beak".
 * The Regurgitator. THE WORLD IS HIS NEMESIS!! (dramatic clap of thunder)
 * How did we manage to forget Doofenshmirtz??? "CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUS!"
 * HEY, YOU GUYS!!!
 * Troper community: Hi Dill.
 * Is this troper the only one who forever associates that phrase with The Goonies?
 * "HOLY MACKERELLLLL!"
 * Stacey also had her hammy moments. "REAL MATURE, BRADLEEEEEY!"
 * Slagar the Cruel from the Redwall cartoon. Once again, voiced by Tim Curry.
 * Hell, just him introducing himself is hammy. "I...am Slagar...the cruel!"
 * Plus, who can forget the reveal? "I AM
 * Asmodeus from the first series was also a ham of epic proportions despite about 90% of his dialouge consisting of his own name.
 * And the other 10%? "I...shall show you...ETERNITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"
 * Verminious Snaptrap, The Chameleon, Bird Brain, pretty much EVERY villain on Tuff Puppy. The lead character Dudley also falls under this.
 * Dr. Klaw under the effects of Vibranium takes Mark Hamill's inherit hamminess and multiplies it exponentially. EXPONENTIALLY!!
 * Thor and Graviton, too.
 * While the world of the Super Hero Squad is World of Ham, Dr. Doom stands out. Charles Adler must BATHE in Ham to do it. Thor, Wolverine, and Captain America are hammy but to a much lesser extent. Loki is another hammy villain.


 * Judy and Roger from Doug.
 * Ren from Ren and Stimpy.
 * Next time you sit down and watch My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, remember to bring a plate because chances are Tabitha St Germain is gonna fill it with liberal amounts of ham. She could easily out-ham Brian Blessed at times.
 * When Rarity turns on the histrionics, she turns on the ham as well. You will believe a pony can ham.
 * The best part about Rarity's hamming is that if someone out-hams her, she goes out of her way to out-ham them.
 * Next you have Photo Finish, Fountain of Memes extraordinaire, who hams up every scene she's in with... DA MAGICKS.
 * And then you've got Princess Luna. Apparently being a massive ham was required out of royalty 1000 years ago, which she's retained after all this time (complete with Flowery Elizabethan English).
 * THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL ROYAL CANTERLOT WAY OF HAMMING IT UP!
 * The Great and Powerful Trixie (surprisingly not voiced by St. Germain, but by Kathleen Barr) is pretty much made of pork, appropriate for her role as a Stage Magician and Fake Ultimate Hero.
 * Discord, the villain of the Season 2 opener, is deliciously, maliciously mean. Being voiced by John DeLancie (Q from Star Trek the Next Generation) doesn't hurt, either.
 * And now we have Iron Will from Putting Your Hoof Down. He's essentially Hercule, Hulk Hogan, and Mr. T rolled into the body of a minotaur.
 * No mention of Flim and Flam? They aren't too hammy when they just talk, but their introduction is pure ham
 * From the season finale we have Queen Chrysalis (voiced by Kathleen Barr, like Trixie), who likes her love with a side of scenery.
 * The Hub, where puppies and kittens play together, where friends drop by for a visit, and where rainbows PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY!!!
 * From much, much earlier, Nightmare Moon...which should seem natural for her, being Princess Luna's Super-Powered Evil Side.
 * Also at the very beginning of the series, we meet Steven Magnet, the sea serpent with the (half) BEEYOOOTIFUL MOUSTAAACHE.
 * The REGIS Mark V mocks your pitiful attempt at ham. It will destroy all.
 * The Warden from Superjail is essentially a sociopathic, reality warping Willy Wonka taken Up to Eleven.
 * Superboy from Young Justice can get surprisingly hammy when he yells. Especially in episode 2.
 * Scaredy from Scaredy Squirrel hams it up a few times.
 * The Whammer from Word Girl. Yeah, wham!
 * Bloo from Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. Due to having absolutely no volume control most of the time, he has his hammy moments.
 * Kung Fu Panda Legends of Awesomeness: Po Ping is very much this. Also, the show's starting to fill up with villain hams. Heck, even the names of places tend to be a little hammy.
 * Swanson has his moments of hamminess.
 * The (Dark) Princess from Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer.
 * Who could forget Luigi in Super Mario World? THAT'S MAMA LUIGI TO YOU, MARIO! *wheeep*
 * Stork from Storm Hawks, if you're searching for neurotic, Twitchy Eye flavored ham.
