Othar has been "kidnapped" by Ferretina, the Weasel Queen, famous for devouring young men, grilled with cheese. One of the closing questions is "And what kind of cheese goes best with grilled ham?"
*** Pushed even further into the zone of absolute hamminess by Cheyenne Wright portraying Othar in the audio plays.
** Ferretina herself qualifies.
{{quote|"I think it's the loneliness that makes a...person begin to have...strange thoughts. Thoughts that drive her to explore the twisted, ''blasphemous'' back alleys of science. That allows - no - '''forces''' her to create '''monstrosities!''' Monstrosities fit only to unleash upon those sanctimonious villagers who reviled and '''mocked''' her because of her father's experiments!"}}
** Hamminess and [[Chewing the Scenery]] seem to be a consistent side effect of [[Science-Related Memetic Disorder|the Spark]]. Othar and Ferretina are just the ones who do it when they ''aren't'' going off on a [[Mad Scientist]] rant.
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body" rant.
** The Jagermonsters have tendencies that way as well.

** Agatha herself [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110608 knows how to set the right tone] when addressing unruly minions.
* Dr. Disaster from ''[[Gunnerkrigg Court]]''. He starts hamming it up with [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=168 his very first lines]: "'''Spacemonauts!''' The '''Earth''' is '''in peril'''!" It's unclear whether he's like this all the time, or just acting. Ironically, he has a crush on Jones, the resident [[The Stoic|Stoic.]]

** Parley [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=390 knows] how important it is to put up a good show (later, Mort joins too).
* ''[[Misfile]]:'' New [[Knight Templar]] Xaphrael makes his entrance in [http://www.misfile.com/?page=1055 this strip]. "That voice, it's a [[Our Angels Are Different|Large Angelic Ham]]!" And the Whole [[Cryptic Conversation]] that follows it.

"Man* Without''[[The AInexplicable Body"Adventures of Bob]]'' has Galatea ("CRAZY? YOU DARE?! ALL THE WORLD IS MAD AND ONLY I AM SANE!!") and Riboflavin ("I SAID BOW, YOU HALF-SENTIENT LEMUR!"). Galatea has a big crush on Riboflavin at one point.

(Initiate a conversation with Vriska as Karkat to see this).
"Man** WithoutOf Acourse, Body"[[Deuteragonist|Karkat]] is also prone to overdramatics, especially when angry. See [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004528 his first conversation with John] (from his perspective).

"Man* WithoutThe Awebcomic Body"[[Max Overacts]] is about a 8 year old boy named Max who is, essentially, the physical embodiment of this trope. ([http://occasionalcomics.com/79/latest-comic-2/ "Get Me The Louvre! We Must Vitamin-Enrich Their Permanent Collection!"])

"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""
 
== Web Original ==
"Man* Without''' AHELLO Body"MY LOYAL SUBSCRIBERS! THIS IS [[Phantom Savage|PHANTOMSAVAGE]] AND WELCOME BACK TO ''' (insert LP here)
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series]]'':
"Man Without A Body"'':
** Yami/Pharaoh certainly qualifies.
{{quote|"I can do anything I want, because I'm voiced by [[4Kids! Entertainment|DAN GREEN]]!"<br />
"Man Without A Body"!"<br />
"'''ATTENTION DUELISTS! MY HAIR HAS BECOME AN INTERNET PHENOMENON!'''" }}
** And then we have Marik.
{{quote|"Foolish fools! There are no women in Yu-Gi-Oh! There are only extremely girly men! And I am the most girly of them all!"}}
* ''[[Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog]]'':
"Man Without A Body"'':
** Nathan Fillion puts the "ham" in Captain Hammer. But he's playing a smarmy, self-absorbed superhero caricature--it would be ''impossible'' to portray the character any other way. Fillion remarked that it was the only time in his career a director had to tell him to be ''more'' of a ham.
{{quote|'''Captain Hammer''' (singing while giving Dr. Horrible the finger): "Everyone's a hero in their ''WAAAAAAAY''?!?"}}
** Doctor Horrible himself becomes Doctor ''Ham''ible in the last act, during the song "Slipping", and Act II - ''Brand New Day'' is a delicious slice of ham.
"Man* WithoutO'Malley Afrom Body"''[[Red vs. Blue]]'' may very well be the largest ham in the history of Machinima.
{{quote|"Now be careful, mustn't give away our position with maniacal laughter!"
"Even though what I want is something frightening! WHAT I WANT is something PURE EVIL, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" }}
** O'Malley's the undisputed king of this in Red vs. Blue, but fellow villain Wyoming is no slouch, and The Director shows shades of this as well at times.
{{quote|"I don't give a DAMN about you and your committee!" }}
"Man* WithoutStrong ABad Body""Manfrom Without''[[Homestar ARunner]]''. Body"In [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People|Strong Bads Cool Game for Attractive People]], when {{spoiler|Dadgeresque, AKA Senor Cardgage, "died"}}, and Dangeresque, AKA Strong Bad, sounded like his head was about to blow off his body. This was just one of his many instances of hamminess, however.
{{quote|'''Strong Bad''': "Well, I heard a techno song one time that went like, 'Doom doom doom doom', and then this other part came in and it was like, 'Dudalado! Dudalado! Dudalado! Dudalado!' And there's always this high-pitched noise, you know, like a siren that's like, 'DOO-DA-DA-DIDDLE!! DOO-DA-DA-DIDDLE!!!' And then there's the obligatory old movie quote from some sci-fi movie, it's like, 'The system is down! DOO-DA-DA-DIDDLE!!! DOO-DA-DA-DIDDLE!!!!'"
'''Strong Bad''': "WHY? WHY DO MY THIRTY-YEAR-OLD ELECTRONICS KEEP BREAKING ON ME???" }}
** '''''TROGDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!!'''''
* ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'':
"Man Without A Body"'':
** Liam Black is this mixed with [[Narm]]. Candescence, the character's handler, stated this was very intentional (though they did [[Old Shame|regret it in hindsight.]])
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body")
{{quote|"Oh and a girl with silky brown hair and a '''FUCKING LASER'''!"
"Then the person threatening James... '''IS YOU!''" }}
** This is one of the handler Ragged Druid's trademarks, along with [[Small Name, Big Ego]] and [[Don't Explain the Joke]].
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body".
** Jimmy Brennan of v4 is also particularly hammy, alongside [[Cluster F-Bomb|having a ridiculously huge potty mouth]].
"Man Without A Body".
{{quote|}}
"Man* WithoutThe A''[[Lonelygirl15]]'' Body""Manrecurring Withoutvillain ATed Body"McKinley (aka [[Fan Nickname|PharmaGuy]]), especially in his first appearance.
"Man* Without''[[The AAngry Body""ManVideo WithoutGame ANerd]]'' Body"alternates between somewhat constrained and really exaggerated [[Unstoppable Rage]] (particularly during rants, and sometimes even silent, like his Kaiju impersonation during the Godzilla video).
{{quote|"I'm the LORD of the HARVEST!"
'''BRING IT DOWN, BRING IT DOWN!"''' }}
* While on the subject of web reviewers, [[World of Ham|just about anyone on]] ''[[That Guy With The Glasses]]'' qualifies.
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body"'' qualifies.
** Of course, there is [[The Nostalgia Critic]] himself (pictured). But [[Doug Walker]]'s hamminess really shines as [[Bum Reviews|Chester A. Bum.]]
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body"
** [[The Spoony Experiment|Spoony]] can serve up the ham, especially as Dr. Insano. [[The Angry Joe Show|Angry Joe]] can be as passionate as his name suggests and [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Linkara]] has his moments too, [[Catch Phrase|for HE is A MAN!]].
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body".
"Man** WithoutOut Aof Body""Manthe Withoutwomen Aon Body"the site, [[The Nostalgia Chick]]'s [[Sidekick]] Nella is the one who revels in ham delightfully.
"Man{{quote|For WithoutSide-[[Kickassia]]! AAnd Body""Man Without A Body"[[Geek|geekery]]! [Races away bearing a sword.]}}
** Elisa, as Dr. Tease and The Makeover Fairy, can hold her own too and even the Chick has a fair amount of moments.
*** To see Elisa really bringing home the ham, [http://blip.tv/mavenoftheeventide/vampire-reviews-interview-with-the-vampire-5655395# see] her piece on the impact of ''[[Interview With a Vampire]]''.
"Man Without A Body"''.
*** "The Dark Nella Saga" shows that all of Team NChick can gleefully ham it up like crazy, though Nella and Elisa remain the champions.
"Man*** Without[http://blip.tv/nostalgia-chick/nostalgia-chick-the-little-mermaid-5360667 AThe Body"Chick's review] for ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' provides great ''silent'' hamming from Nella!
** While not a reviewer, Bhargav "Bargo" Dronamraju could very easily be the hammiest on the site.
{{quote|"A sci-fi movie so terrible it makes my nipples TINGLE with FEAR! [...] [[Big Yes|YYYES!]] ''[[Battlefield Earth (film)|BATTLEFIELD EARRRRTH!!!]]''"}}
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body"''"}}
** Nowhere are they hammier, however, than during the [[Massively Multiplayer Crossover]] that is ''[[Kickassia]]''. [[The Spoony Experiment|Spoony]] exemplifies this trope to an awesome degree. [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Linkara]] also deserves special mention for an extremely silly scene with [[Marz Gurl]].
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body".
{{quote|"Take comfort in my masculine arms!"}}
** They get it on again on ''[[Suburban Knights]]''. Especially [[Phelous]] as [[The Neverending Story (film)|the Rockbiter]] and [[Paw Dugan|Paw]] as [[Dungeons and Dragons (film)|Profion]] (a character well discussed in the [[Large Ham/Film|Film page]]).
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body").
"Man** Without A Body"[[Phelous]] in general, especially when he starts growling his words.
"Man** Without[[Diamanda A Body"Hagan]] could easily give Nella a run for her money. Ham-off away!
** Linkara's dad as Whatley in the Silent Hill: The Grinning Man review, in a wig that wouldn't look out of place in Spinal Tap, and it is glorious.
* Mille Chanteau of ''[[Ilivais X]]'' is the ''queen'' of ham. If she's in battle, it's all but guaranteed anything she says is an epic speech of some kind, and it's not limited to then either. Of course, there's also Seyne (that comes with being a [[Super Robot Wars|Sanger Zonvolt]] [[Expy]] though), most of the [[Elemental Powers|GEKICOM]] and [[Combining Mecha|STRUQ]] members, hell, even [[Broken Bird|Iri]][[Rei Clone|ana]] has her moments.
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body" has her moments.
* Bottom of ''[[Wormtooth Nation]]'' hams it up in every scene. This is understandable since he is based on the character of the same name from ''[[A Midsummer Night's Dream]]''.
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body"''.
"Man* Without''[[There AWill Body""ManBe WithoutBrawl]]'' Ais Body""Mana Withoutseries Athat Body""Manplays Without[[Melodrama]] Aso Body"straight that it's almost a parody, so this kind of acting is a requirement.

* [http://baumanletters.ytmnd.com/ "THIS is TRUE LUNACY!"]
"Man Without* ''[[A Body"Very Potter Musical]]'' has a larger than normal quotient of these.
** Snape, Draco, and Voldemort all qualify, with Snape being the most [[Egregious]] example by far. Dumbledore is up there as well, especially when he starts lapsing into a Yiddish accent. Really, half of the play is the actors all [[Ham-to-Ham Combat|trying to out-ham each other]]... which doesn't detract from it at all.
"Man Without A Body""Man Without A Body"... which doesn't detract from it at all.
