{{creatortropes}}
* [[Acting for Two]]: Quite a lot. Overlaps with [[Talking to Himself]].
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Most of his villainous characters are like this. Those played for laughs are over the top hilarious, those played for more dramatic and serious works are downright frightening.
* [[Berserk Button]]: He became very upset that he didn't get a major role in Animaniacs, so he left Tiny Toons before the end of production. Luckily there were only 4 episodes left.
** Also it's worth noting that many of his characters display this to various degrees.
* [[Boisterous Bruiser]]: as T-Bone from ''[[
* [[The Cameo]]: His character Starscream has only 2 lines in the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie. And yet, this role brought him much fame.
* [[Chewing the Scenery]]
* [[Cross
* [[The Danza]]: played a recurring character called Mr. Adler in ''[[
* [[Evil Is Hammy]]
* [[Evil Laugh]]: He does some excellent ones as Mechanicles, Dr. Doom and the Red Guy.
* [[Evil Twin]]: He plays Buster Bunny and his evil counterpart Roderick Rat in ''Tiny Toon Adventures''.
* [[Fake Brit]]: As Vlad the Russian teacher in ''[[Shuriken School]]'' and Snively in ''[[Sonic
* [[Gratuitous Spanish]]: As Super Cow in ''[[
* [[Guttural Growler]]: As Starscream, Cobra Commander and Dr. Doom.
* [[Large Ham]]: Many of his characters tend to be over dramatic as hell.
* [[Man of a Thousand Voices]]: He's like a new Mel Blanc both because he plays a junior version of Bugs Bunny in ''Tiny Toons ''and because he plays five main characters in ''Cow and Chicken'' like Mel Blanc played all the ''Looney Tunes'' characters.
* [[No Indoor Voice]]: Most of his characters tend to do a lot of yelling.
* [[Non
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Replaced [[Thom Adcox]] as the voice of Felix in ''[[
* [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor]]: Energetic goofs (Buster, Ickis, Chicken) and [[Large Ham|overdramatic villains]] (Professor Monkey-For-A-Head, The Red Guy, Mechanicles, Mr. Big Head) mostly. He also often plays annoying idiotic characters (Irwin the penguin, Screwball Squirrel, Cow) and unexcited boring characters who sound like Droopy (Dripple, Mr Buttons, Snively).
* [[Playing Against Type]]: His role as the current voice of Cobra Commander from the ''[[
* [[Punctuated!
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: Has played roles alongside [[Tom Kenny]] and [[Tress MacNeille]] many times.
* [[Shocking Voice Identity Reveal]]: It's suprising that all the listed characters are voiced by just one man.
* [[Skyward Scream]]
* [[Soft
* [[Smug Snake]]: As Eric Raymond, the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[
* [[Star-Making Role]]: in ''[[
* [[Talking to Himself]]: In ''[[
