Unsound Effect: Difference between revisions
→Live Action TV
Line 167:
== Live
* The "Bicycle Repairman" sketch from ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'' has intertitle cards with effects like: "Screw!", "Bend!", "Inflate!", and "Alter Saddle!"
* The 1960s ''[[Batman (TV series)|Batman]]'' TV series had sound effects in every fight scene, and always slipped a few unsounds in as well (e.g. "Sock!" or "Ouch!").
Line 173:
** ''[[The Avengers (TV series)|The Avengers]]'' also parodies this in "The Winged Avenger". At the end of the episode, Steed fights the villain by hitting him with poster-sized mockups of comic book panels, each containing a word like "Pow!" and "Splat!" Meanwhile, "Batman"-like music is playing in the background.
* When a piece of viewer mail on ''[[Attack of the Show!]]'' asked what kind of sound effect they would want to have if they were in a comic, Kevin Pereira admitted he would want the word "SKANK!" to pop up when he slapped someone in the face.
* ''[[The Muppet Show]]'' did a sketch entirely in action and spoken sound/unsound words. It started with a creature (possibly played by Animal{{verify}}) trudging through the wilderness while muttering "trudge trudge trudge" until it got interrupted by something flying past with a loud "FLY! FLY!" which made it stop and go "ponder... ponder... ponder..." as it, well, pondered the strange event. After this had happened a couple of times the wanderer lost its patience and went "fret foam" as it picked up a heavy stick, and the next time the flyer passed it got stopped by a massive SMASH SMASH!
* On ''[[The Tonight Show]]'', Conan O'Brien visits a Foley stage and makes his own sound effects, including a shout of "Throw baby!" when a character throws a baby.
* While the well-loved "Sound Effects" game in ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway?]]'' tends to slip into [[Saying Sound Effects Out Loud]] instead, a recent session in ''[[Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza]]'' flies straight into this trope when one audience member, faced with voicing over ''flexing biceps'', actually goes "Magnificent!" and "Powerful!" for each arm. [[Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza/Funny|And flexing buttcheeks go "Beyonce!" for some reason.]]
** During one game of "Props", Wayne had to somehow mime being a lamp that was turned on. So he just simply said "ON!" loudly.
