* Lemongrab, from ''[[Adventure Time]]''. Sweet mother of Glob, Lemongrab. What is his first line in the show, and the first thing he says when he enters the Candy Castle? "This Castle Is... In... Unacceptabllle Conditiiion! UNACCEPTABLLLEEE!!!" Though many, if not most, of the characters in Adventure Time are large hams, our pal LG takes the cake as the largest ham, thanks to his shrill, high-pitched, constantly shrieking voice, unnecessary charisma, and sheer, undiluted rage towards everything that even remotely disagrees with him.
Line 62:
{{quote|'''Harold Zoid:''' I [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall|got a part in a fancy DVD-movie!]] It's only one line but I'm gonna ham it up like you wouldn't believe!}}
** Number 9 Guy does this Into the Wild Green Yonder, with coaching from Fry:
{{quote|'''Nine:''' So dig this, Fry. Our commune has been monitoring the universe's life energy for, like, a really long time, and we're [[Stranger in Aa Strange Land|grok]][[Shout-Out|king]] some super weird junk.<br />
'''Fry:''' Um, I don't mean to be rude, but it's kind of hard to take you seriously when you say junk like "grok" and "junk."<br />
'''Nine:''' What about "commune"?<br />
'''Fry:''' Especially "commune." Come on, it's the fate of the universe, puff it up a little. Like you could say your ancient order is sensing deep upheaval in the cosmic life energy field.<br />
[Everybody murmurs.]<br />
'''Nine:''' Okay. I'll try. So, like, a really, really long time ago... [Fry motions "longer" with his hands.] Eons ago? [Fry nods, approvingly] ''EONS'' ago! }}
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROPEICInVPY Bender, just...just Bender.]
Line 83:
** His first line (asides from the opening sequence) is both hammy and awesome, despite it being said in a rather quiet voice: [[Oh Crap|"Once again I am free to smite the world as I did in days long past."]]
** The Spanish dub out-hams it, as Aku has... well, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnVk8nGg39w this voice].
** "'''ENOUGH!''' This next story is true to its utmost detail! Once, there was an all-powerful, all-mighty wizard, and a pathetic little samurai. And the wizard '' '''DESTROYED HIM!!!'' THE END!'''"
** "Once upon a time, there was a cute little girl '''[[Self-Insert Fic|WITH GREAT FLAAAMING EYEBROWS!]]'''"
** "Samurai, samurai...[[Why Won't You Die?|WHY WON'T YOU]] '''[[Why Won't You Die?|DIEEEE!!]]'''"
Line 120:
** The Shadow Hog. The name alone is hammy.
{{quote|'''I AM THE SHADOW HOG!''' WHAT IS IT YOU WANT FROM ME, CHILD WHO CONJURED ME, AND CHILD WHO WAS '''BLESSED''' WITH '''PIG''' SENSES?}}
** Just about ''[[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|any]]'' character played by [[Richard Steven Horvitz]] is going to be a ham in some fashion or another. See: The hammily demented Daggett Beaver of ''The [[Angry Beavers]],'' the hammily moronic Billy of ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy]]'', and the hammily... well, I don't know what to call him—Rodney in ''[[Squirrel Boy]].''
*** [[Psychonauts|Raz]] wasn't a ham. Sadly.
**** That's only if you compare him to the veritable [[World of Ham]] that Psychonauts takes place in. I refer you to the [[Brick Joke|purpose of the goggles.]]
Line 148:
''"I have [[A God Am I|all the power IN THE WORLD]]!"'' }}
** Like in everything else, [[Magnificent Bastard|Azula]] follows closely in her father's footsteps. Unlike lots of other Large Hams, she doesn't have to resort to shouting every single one of her lines. Instead she has the overwhelming charisma and just the right amount of insanity to make almost everyone cower before her instinctively. Then, once they are shaking with fear, THE HAM IS UNLEASHED!
{{quote|'''''Yes''! ''[[Unsportsmanlike Gloating|We have defeated you for all time!]] ''[[Serious Business|YOU WILL NEVER RISE FROM THE ASHES OF YOUR SHAME AND HUMILIATION!]]''... [[Wasn't That Fun?|Well, that was fun.]]<br />
'''Azula''' ''"Together, you and I will be the strongest couple in the entire world. '''[[We Can Rule Together|WE WILL DOMINATE THE EARTH!]]''''' (columns of blue fire burst from her hands)<br />
'''Chan:''' ''"*[[Idiot Crows]]* Uh... [[No Guy Wants an Amazon|I gotta go]]."'' }}
** Azula appears just right after Season One villain Zhao was defeated (even the same episode). When it came to hamminess, her predecessor was just like her.
Line 213:
* [[Christopher Lloyd]]'s role as "Hacker" on ''[[Cyberchase]]'' involves reading each line in a maniacal howl.
* Mr Blik from ''[[Catscratch]]'' and any other character voiced by Wayne Knight.
* In ''[[ReBoot]]'', Hexadecimal can go from subdued to large ham on a whim. Usually with a suitable change of face to go with it. And her [[Heel Face Turn]] didn't change this one bit.
{{quote|I don't know if I should talk to you, '''OR KILL YOU!!!'''}}
* Greetings and bienvenue, Tropers! [[You Might Remember Me From|You may remember]] [[The Secret Saturdays|V. V. Argost]] from his [[Show Within a Show|delightful telelvision progam,]] ''[[Show Within a Show|V. V. Argost's Weird World]]''... Or perhaps from the [[Evil Plan]] that's slowly but surely leading him to [[Take Over the World|world domination]]. Did I mention you have a [[MacGuffin]] he'd very much like back?
Line 382:
* Stork from ''[[Storm Hawks]]'', if you're searching for neurotic, [[Twitchy Eye]] flavored ham.
