- Most of them, really.
- Brian Regan.

- Dane Cook can be one. Frankly, he'd probably be boring if he didn't tell even the most mundane of jokes by running in circles and screaming.
- Robin Williams
- Lewis Black
- Patton Oswalt

- Lucifer is played this way in many of his incarnations... It's so common that presenting him as low key or mellow is a subversion of his normal character.
- A good example of deviled ham would Viggo Mortenson as Lucifer in The Prophecy. He almost manages to out-ham Christopher Walken.
- Possibly an even better one is Al Pacino in The Devil's Advocate, but then it is Al Pacino: "GOD! is an ABSENTEE LANDLORD!!"
- The Screwtape Letters is a deliberate aversion. The author felt that Milton had accidentally made Satan too attractive and reasoned that the real devil must exist at a level far below even the worst human tyrants, and thus while they might put on ham as a disguise, listening to them talking would be rather dreary. So he made hell as exciting as an office building.
- A good example of deviled ham would Viggo Mortenson as Lucifer in The Prophecy. He almost manages to out-ham Christopher Walken.
- Anyone listening to the audiobook of Neverwhere can tell that Neil Gaiman had a blast reading the part of Mr. Croup.
- Elvis Presley is caricatured as this sometimes.
- SIR I BELIEVE YOU TO BE MISTAKEN. He is simply not a LARGE, HAM... but has eaten way, way, way, waaaaaaay too many LARGE HAMS. And thus, become one.
- Jacob P. Galvatron of My Way Entertainment's Transformers parody.
- Some many parodists on Hamiright.com can be extremely hammy including Hogrimorfee (Agrimorfee), Red Ham (Red Ant) and Hammy G (Chucky G).
- State-run TV news anchors can be very hammy in their support for their autocrats. Take this AK-47 toting Libyan news anchor for example.
- Peter Travers for the Rolling Stone makes hammy video reviews. See for yourself...
- Vince Offer. He practically sells himself.
- I AIN GON' WALK AGINNN....NOT EVEN ON... CRUTCHEYEZZZZZ Actually, the whole thing is a master class on Ham.
- Among furries, Dr. Samuel Conway, also known as Uncle Kage, is notorious and much-loved for his delightfully over-the-top persona in public. Just watch a few of his performances.
