** Pay close attention, because the foley guys were actually quite clever; there's times when they threw in sounds that work so perfectly that even though they're glaringly out of place, you don't even notice they're there (like when the doctor gets shot in the foot; as he goes down, you can hear the sound of a tree falling). Yeah, I know it's a contradiction. Work with me here. |

** Arguably, the foley is the only reason why the Three Stooges shorts work. Otherwise it's just a bunch of guys hitting each other—at least with the sounds it becomes exaggerated and comical. |

⚫ | * ''[[Power Rangers]]'' / ''[[Super Sentai]]'', ''[[Kamen Rider]]'', and most other [[tokusatsu]] are guilty of this. Back then they would save the sound effects for when someone puches someone else, making the fights a bit closer to reality. Lately though there have been more whooshes in the fights, so not really anymore. |

* ''[[Hercules: The Legendary Journeys]]'' and ''[[Xena: Warrior Princess]]'' both made heavy use of this trope, with nearly every punch, throw, and glance accentuated with sound effects. no surprise since executive producer [[Sam Raimi]] is generally fond of this trope, which also shows up in his [[Evil Dead]] movies. |

⚫ | * Foley is parodied in ''[[The Goodies]]'' episode ''Kung Fu Kapers'', when Tim and Bill are fighting—Tim tries to hit Bill, finds it produces a honking noise, then just touches him for a while to explore the sounds that ensue, which include alarm clocks and party horns. Bill laughs and plays a few notes on himself by tapping his head and knees. Tim pushes Bill's stomach and produces a loud honk. They both laugh...and then Tim clobbers Bill over the head accompanied by a huge, rock-smashing sound effect. |

⚫ | * In classic ''[[Deadlands]]'' rules, there's an [[In-Universe]] example: martial artists can take the disadvantage "The Cup Overflows". It means that all their combat moves result in hammy sound effects and possibly even [[Final Fantasy]]-esque battle auras and flashes of light. Not only it makes stealth harder, it also makes hostile martial artists think your character is more dangerous than they are and target you with their strongest techniques; non-martial artists simply think you are a [[Burn the Witch|sorcerer]]. |
