Big No/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

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

* ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'':

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

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

* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''

** 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)'' }}

** And parodied yet again in an episode where Grandpa is a [[Bland-Name Product|Sprawl-Mart]] greeter, and gets knocked onto an out-of-control shopping buggy.

** 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!!''' }}

* Many in ''[[Futurama]]''. In particular, being a parody of melodramatic acting, Calculon the robotic soap-opera star is prone to do this sort of thing a lot.

** "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.

* Done straight on a fairly regular basis in ''[[Re Boot]]''. {{spoiler|Bob, being shot into the Web at the end of season two, Enzo, after learning about Bob's fate, Dot in "Game Over" when it appeared that Enzo had been nullified (that scene, coupled with Megabyte's calm laughter, still gives this editor chills), and said ''twice'' by Megabyte in two episodes toward the end}}. [http://rebootplotpoints.ytmnd.com/ This YTMND] does a rather good job of pointing out just how often this trope is played.

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

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

* The ''[[X-Men (animation)|X-Men]]'' animated series:

* 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.

* In ''[[Street Fighter (animation)|Street Fighter]]'', Guile gives one when Cammy defected to Shadaloo and gives Bison a '''big kiss'''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_5LnKVfS5M Note] the [[Soundtrack Dissonance]].

* In ''[[Freakazoid]]'' episode "House of Freakazoid", Freakazoid is pressured to pursue a villainess through a sewer, but repeatedly refuses because he hates the smell of poo gas.

* Parodied in ''[[The Fairly Odd Parents]]'' "Wishology: The Exciting Middle Part", which ends with a big "Dagnabit!"

** 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.

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

* The ''[[Donkey Kong Country (animation)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' episode "Buried Treasure" contains this exchange when Klump's video conference interrupts K. Rool's computer game:

'''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! }}

** "Something You Can Do With Your Finger" parodies the ''[[Star Trek: First Contact|Star Trek First Contact]]'' example above, when Randy prevents Stan from being in his boy band. Incidentally, they actually use the sound clip of Picard's breakdown from the movie for that scene.

'''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]]''.

* 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.
