Big No/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

* ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]'' are in love with this trope. Most come from Skipper.

'''SpongeBob:''' OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! }}

** Also used in "Bubble Buddy", in dramatic slow-motion and with added vowel screwing around with.

* Several times throughout ''[[King of the Hill]]''. Nearly always by Hank. [[Crowning Moment of Funny|One of the funniest parts of the show.]]

** In the episode "Mayored to the Mob", bodyguard-in-training Homer practices his [[Taking the Bullet|slow-motion dive]]. Making it funnier, the instructor is voiced by [[Mark Hamill]], who should know his Nooooos...

'''Instructor:''' Better. }}

** Used straight in episode "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson", when Barney discovers he holds the black pickled egg that means he's today's designated driver.

'''Homer:''' ''(coming up to him)'' [[Captain Obvious|You got the black one.]] }}

** Also used straight by Bart in "Black Widower".

** Done yet again in "Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words". Homer makes Lisa so angry that she tells him that she's going to use Marge's maiden name (Bouvier) instead of Simpson. Homer drops to his knees and screams "'''NOOOOOOOOOOO!'''" Then another girl walks buy and asks if he wants to buy some Band Candy. Homer's reply: "'''[[Big Yes|YEEEEEEEEEEEES!]]'''"

** And then there's the episode where the Flanders's get Bart, Lisa, and Maggie as foster children.

'''Homer:''' '''NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!''' ''(skin burns on contact with holy water)'' }}

** "Guess Who's Coming to Criticize Dinner?":

'''Homer:''' NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! ''(throws eclair)'' }}

** In "Homer's Barbershop Quartet", Chief Wiggum lets out one that gets twisted into a wolf-type howl at the moon.

** In the beginning of the episode where Bart made a new friend who was the daughter of Wolfcastle, Marge threw the Olympic Torch to the police and the police helicopter crashed and...

'''Policeman 2''': Yeah, im ok...(looks at extinguished Olympic Torch)"'''''NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!'''''" }}

** In the "138th Episode Spectacular", alternate clips are shown including another ending as to who shot Mr. Burns. When he fingers Smithers as the culprit, Smithers gives a big no then adds, "Wait a minute. Yes."

** [[Played for Laughs]] in the episode where Marge gets a job at the Power Plant. [[It Makes Sense in Context|Smithers is finished cleaning the unirals]] until...

'''Smithers:''' '''NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!''' }}

** "Bend Her" has two in one episode. Calculon is being interviewed on a talk show with Coilette as another guest (who is Bender who changed his robotic sex and invented his own country to win multiple fembot Olympic medals). When asked to set the audience up for the clip they are about to show from a new episode, Calculon responds "No, I think it's self-explanatory." The clip shows Calculon screaming "NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!" (while a [[Pirate]] [[Funny Background Event|inexplicably cooks burgers on a barbecue behind him]]). After the clip, Calculon nonchalantly replies, "Funny story: The script called for me to say 'yes' [[Throw It In|but I gave it a little twist]]." Afterwards, "Coilette" ends up engaged to Calculon but has to call the wedding off before the sex change becomes permanent. After... she fakes her death of at what would have been her wedding to Calculon...

'''Calculon:''' No! NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO! N! O! O! O! }}

** Done ''again'' by Calculon in "That's Lobstertainment!", when Harold Zoid (Zoidberg's over-the-hill celebrity uncle) is trying to make a movie that will guarantee him an Oscar.

** In "Benderama", during an episode of the [[Show Within a Show]] "The Scary Door". A scientist builds a robot that does everything for him, including shouting "NOOOO!" when the irony of the [[Karmic Twist Ending]] sinks in.

** In "The Duh-Vinci Code" when Fry accidentally destroys The Professor's Beard of Leonardo Da Vinchi only for him to find a hidden scroll in it a second later.

** Played with by Bender in "Silence of the Clamps" where, after delivering a [[Big No]] as he {{spoiler|witnesses Calculon getting clamped into a misshapen mess in front of the Robot Mafia}}, describes the scene in hilariously full detail in front of the chief of police, complete with imitation of said [[Big No]]. When required to testify before a grand jury, he {{spoiler|repeats his bit-by-bit exposition of the Robot Mafia's act, only to have the [[Big No]] reproduction interrupted by the prosecutor. He asks to let him finish, then lets out a brief "o" representing the end of the [[Big No]], then says that he is, in fact, finished.}}

* In a ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' sketch involving [[Archie]] and his friends [[Final Destination|dealing with deaths plaguing everyone]], Moose lets out a Big Duh when Ms. Grundy is crushed by a car.

** In the Star Wars Robot Chicken Special (3rd one), Vader slips on something, and falls. His hand gets stuck in the toilet, and the toilet flushes. Cue the: "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

** Shendu yells this after ending up [[Demonic Possession|possessing Valmont]], instead of Jackie, which was what he intended. Almost all of the Demon Sorcerers scream this when they are banished back to the Netherworld through their portals. When they banish the Earth Demon, Jade hangs a lantern on it: "Here comes my favourite part. "NOOO!""

** Uncle is also fond of the Chinese version "Iyaaaa!" -- usually just before smacking Jackie around the head for doing something stupid.

* Parodied throughout the ''[[Drawn Together]]'' episode "Terms of Endearment", in which Captain Hero screams "Nnnooooooo!!" at ''least'' 7 or 8 times. At one point (as the camera pulls back... and back... and then back some more, to reveal just how big a problem he's facing) Hero screams the Big No three times ''in a row'', with dramatic pauses in between.

** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in the musical recap at the end of the third season:

'''Actor Bob:''' [[Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion|Noooo!]] }}

** A wonderful Big No can be found in episode 4 of season 2, "One Man's Worth part 1". The first occurrence is when Bishop shouts it as Professor X {{spoiler|is assassinated in the '50s before he can found the X-Men}}, followed quickly by an epic Big No from Prof. X when {{spoiler|he vanishes from the present}}. The episode ends with a repeat of the opening scene -- but this time, ''it's in slow motion for the last few lines of dialogue'', including Bishop's Big No. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1s3_RH_02M Behold].

** Also there's a Big No from Apocalypse at the end of the four part "Beyond Good and Evil".

** As well as one from [[Wolverine]] in "Out of the Past: Part 2" when Yuriko was touched by the M'Kraan Spirit Drinker.

** In addition, there's one from Cyclops in "Reunion, Part 1" when Sinister and his gang kidnaps Jean.

* ''[[Transformers]]''

*** Inverted with Megatron, as he usually says "Yesssssssssssssss."

*** Last episode of Beast Machines. Megatron's final word? "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

* In ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'', the Sandman gets one of these after seeing the results of his [[Transformation Trauma]] into a living [[The Blob|sand being]].

* Littlefoot gets one of these in ''[[The Land Before Time|The Land Before Time IX]]: Journey to Big Water'', as he watches Mo lead the swimming sharptooth away.

** It really does; Iroh has a (much less dramatic) one when he sees [[Bounty Hunter|June]] get hit with her Shirshu's paralyzing tongue.

** There's also one in the desert episode, right before Aang creates a giant mushroom cloud.

** Katara has one in the Puppetmaster when {{spoiler|Hama nearly forces Sokka and Aang to kill each other using Bloodbending}}.

* ''[[Danny Phantom]]''

** When Danny's family and friends (and teacher) are about to be blown up to their doom in an [[Bad Future|alternate timeline]], Danny cries one out, complete with slow motion movement.

* ''[[Kim Possible]]''

** In "Stop Team Go", after using hundreds of mooks to destroy the gurken jar, [[Harmless Villain|Dr. Drakken]] puts the jar under a big laser beam, and he fires it. The result was a big crater on the floor, and the jar was unharmed. Cue Big No.

* ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]''

** "Daylight Savings": "PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCE?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

* Parodied in the ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]'' episode "Boo Boo Kitty", when Space Ghost's pet cat, actually a large balloon, slowly drifts towards a large safety pin. He screams NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!, runs out of breath, inhales, and starts again. After the balloon deflates, he promptly ignores the others when they suggest he could have easily saved Boo Boo Kitty from its untimely death.

* Played for laughs in ''[[Metalocalypse]]'', where Big Nos are Nathan's catchphrase, and he lets them out quite regularly. They are usually accompanied by the camera flying down Nathan's throat. One example comes when Nathan lets out a NOOOOOOOOOO! upon Nick Ibsen revealing Dethklok's parents.

'''Nick Ibsen:''' Pay for what? Journalistic integrity? }}

** The bit on flying down the throat comes from the episode "Murdering Outside the Box". When Nathan learns that someone is embezzling from the band, he suddenly goes into the Big No sequence, and from the "down the throat" bit the show goes into the opening.

* The ''[[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command]]'' episode "Plasma Monster" has Booster react this way when Plasma Boy's girlfriend tells him they can still be [[Just Friends]].

* ''[[Ace Lightning]]'': The characters in this mixed media show are based on superhero stereotypes, so this was going to show up sooner or later -- except that it's ''not'' one of the CGI characters that do it -- it's a ''human'', in the last episode, when he thinks Ace has been shot.

** Played straight in the ''Fairly Oddparents: Shadow Showdown'' video game; Timmy shouts it after his TV breaks in the introduction, and again upon seeing he's missed the ''Crash Nebula'' season finale at the end.

** And parodied in "Pixies Inc", where, after being foiled, the Pixies let out a big no--[[Dull Surprise|with no emotion]].

* In ''[[Brother Bear]]'', Kenai lets out the distant, bird-disturbing version of a Big No when he discovers he's been transformed into a bear.

* An episode of ''[[Family Guy]]'' has Peter be ''really'' upset over the loss of his pet parrot.

'''Klump:''' ''(calling on the phone)'' Chief? You there, chief? Seems we had some sort of interference. }}

* In an episode of ''[[Flap Jack]]'', The Real Adventurer has the reaction to Bubbie telling him K'Nuckles is not a pregnant woman.

** The episode "Jewbilie" does it ''four times in a row'': First Kyle when Kenny makes a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to stop Haman, then Haman when Moses escapes the conch shell, then anti-semetic Rabbi Garth screams it twice when he realizes his plans have been foiled.

** [[The Movie]]:

'''Sheila:''' NOOOOOOOOO! ''(wrestles rifle out of the general's hands and shoots Terrance and Phillip)'' }}

** "Probably": God gives Saddam Hussein [[Fate Worse Than Death|an even worse punishment than sending him to Hell: sending him to Heaven]].

'''Saddam:''' No! NOOOOOO! }}

'''Randy:''' ''(inexplicably losing it)'' ''Noooo''! ''NOOOOOOO''! ''(smashes a glass dresser with his head)'' }}

** In "The Last of the Meheecans", Randy does it again when he's confronted with what happens when Mexican immigrants performing menial labor all decide to move back to their birth country in a fit of nostalgia, using the same Darth Vader soundclip from ''[[Revenge of the Sith]]''.

** In "Marjorine" Linda Stotch lets out several blood-curling screams of "NO" when she thinks her son Butters has committed suicide by jumping off a building. She does it again at his funeral while throwing herself on his casket.

* ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'': Rocko and Heffer are on a bus tour of Paris with a bus driver who is determined to keep his passengers on the bus ''[[Ax Crazy|at all costs]]'', so much so that he chases them around the city after they escape. By the time the two board a plane home, the bus driver [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j7bGDv9hY0&feature=related delivers an epic BIG NO] as the two fly off into the sunset.

** Owen says a big no when a box of chocolates gets knocked into the water.

** Also, Alejandro in the finale of the 3rd season gives out a Big No after he is {{spoiler|put in a robot suit because he was burned by lava and trampled by most of the contestants}}. Al lets it out when he asks Chris if the prize money is safe, only to find out {{spoiler|it was burned in the volcano}}. It's hilarious because it parodies the cheesiest moments in Star Wars history (which is seen in the picture above).

** Parodied in "Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror" the radio DJ at first lets out what appears to be a big no... but he's actually screaming "Gnomes"!

* Parodied in the [[Musical Episode]] of ''[[Daria]]''. Daria gives a Big No as Kevin accidentally locks the four of them out on the roof.

* ''Dante's Inferno'': An Animated Epic - Dante lets out a pained and enraged (and kinda narmy) big no as he beats on the Gates of Hell that separate him and his wife's soul.

* Mung Daal lets one out during an episode of ''[[Chowder]]''.

** Episodes "Pretty Poison" and "Eternal Youth", each near the end, have the villainess Poison Ivy saying this trope.

** The episode "His Silicon Soul", near the end, has the cyborg Batman saying it after {{spoiler|the real Batman fell to his death before Cyborg Batman committed suicide. Then it's revealed that Robin and Alfred see a light below which is Batman himself, who survived}}.

* A few ''[[Looney Tunes]]''/''Merrie Melodies'' cartoons have this:

** The [[Chuck Jones]] Warner Brothers cartoon ''[[Duck Amuck]]'':

'''Daffy:''' Nooooo! Nooooo! }}

** The [[Friz Freleng]] cartoon ''Bucaneer Bunny'' has Yosemite Sam (a.k.a. Pirate Sam) say a couple of Big No's when Bugs attempts to throw a matchstick inside his pirate ship which is filled with gunpowder.

** Also one near the end of the McKimson short "Sleepy Time Possum" in which Paw Possum, disguised as a dog, gets catapulted by his son.

* ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'': [[The Hedonist|Beezy]] lets out one as [[Enfante Terrible|Heloise]] beats him in a staring eyes competition.

* [[Happy Tree Friends]], while not exactly a "No!", has the very drawn-out "Yarr!" in the episode ''Sea What I Found''. Given the [[Speaking Simlish|circumstances]], it's obvious that he means no.

* In ''[[The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron]]'' Jimmy gets one when he travels to the future and he discovers that his future self married Cindy. And when it comes back from commercial, we discover that he screamed for four minutes.

** Sheen lets out one in the interstitial shorts after his Ultralord action figure gets stuck in a tree. Also lets one out in Ultra Sheen when he witnesses Ultra Lord's defeat at the hands of Robo-Fiend inside the the video game

** Hugh does this in "Attack of the Twonkies" when Judy takes Flippy from him and throws him to Jimmy so he can power up his rocket and send the giant Twonkie back into space.

* This is ''[[Johnny Bravo]]'s'' reaction to finding out the Easter Bunny isn't real.

** Adamaï lets out a Big No (with [[Skyward Scream]]) at the end of episode 16, after Grougaloragran teleports the heroes away to fight Nox alone.

** Nox, as part of his [[Villainous Breakdown]] in the season 1 finale, when {{spoiler|he realizes that his attempted [[Time Travel]] only brought him back ''twenty frigging minutes'' in the past}}.

* The Death Kwon Do instructor in ''[[Regular Show]]'' gets three rather nice ones. First when he discovers Rigby stole the instructions to learn the Death Punch of Death, only to be interrupted by a student explaining the toilet was 'Death Kwon clogged', leading to another [[Big No]]. Then finally, when he discovers that Mordicai stole the Death Jump and Death Dump instructions, he lets out another [[Big No]].

* Scaredy Bat lets one out in an episode of ''[[Ruby Gloom]]''.

** Nightmare Moon does it in "Friendship is Magic, Part 2" when the Mane Six activate the Elements of Harmony and blast her with them.

** Likewise, Discord does it in "Return of Harmony, Part 2", when the Mane Six use the Elements to [[Taken for Granite|turn him back into stone]].

** In "Stare Master", Fluttershy's reaction to Applebloom suggesting the Cutie Mark Crusaders try to get coal-mining cutie marks is a very emphatic [[Shrinking Violet|(especially for her)]] "NO!"

** Scootaloo does this in "Cutie Mark Chronicles", when Fluttershy suggests singing another (cutesy) song.

** The Cutie Mark Crusaders do this at the end of "Hearts and Hooves Day" when {{spoiler|Big Macintosh and Cheerliee make the Crusaders think the two of them are still under the influence of the love poison.}}

* Johnny delivers one in ''[[Johnny Test]].'' And then [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|the ground shakes]].

* Richard in ''[[The Amazing World of Gumball]]'', when told he has to get a job.

* Utterd by Kabuto at the end of [[Pixar Shorts|''Tokyo Mater'']] as a result of him losing to [[Cars|Mater]] in a drift race and is about to have all of his modifications pulled off his body by all of the other cars in Tokyo, who then laugh at him when Kabuto is finally naked.
