Flanders - what is it?
A complete stranger who approaches you at a gas station in the middle of nowhere, only to ask you if you've "found Jesus yet?" The question is usually accompanied by a proselytizing business card depicting someone going to hell for their supposed sins.
Car Owner: Fuckin' gas prices are ridiculous!!
Flanders: 'Scuse me, but I couldn't help noticing you're really mad about the price of gasoline. Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your lord n' savior? He'll help you with your anger.
Car Owner: What are you, some kinda nutcase?
What does "Flanders" mean?
To attempt a conversation while unintentionally thoroughly confusing your listener. Approving and negating a topic in the same sentence. To open up a conversation on one topic and randomly change to another. The flanderer may be sober or intoxicated. Rapid successions of the words, "yea, yea, yea, no, no, no"
"Yo dude did you borrow my pen?"
"Yea yea yea, no no no"
"huh?"
"I did, but then I didn't"
"Quit fucking flandering, did you borrow it or not?"
Flanders - what does it mean?
.just like Ned Flanders on the simpsons
every thing is
its gone wet
The act of taking a single (often minor) action or trait of a character within a work and exaggerating it more and more over time until it completely consumes the character. Most always, the trait/action becomes completely outlandish and it becomes their defining characteristic. Sitcoms and Sitcom characters are particularly susceptible to this, as are peripheral characters in shows with long runs.
The trope is named for one of the examples in The Simpsons, Ned Flanders, who was originally just a considerate neighbor and attentive father, with his devout nature simply being that he willingly attended and paid attention in church, all to make him a contrast to Homer, before becoming obsessively religious to the point of stupidity.
Note that the key to this trope is in how the process is a gradual thing, the character starts relatively normal then gains a few quirks, the quirks become more prominent and then gradually become the character. If it is simply about how the character is different early on before the writers know what to do with them, that is Characterization Marches On. Flanderization doesn't have to be a bad thing - sometimes it can be used to expand on a background character's personality when they are brought to the foreground, or make an otherwise bland character stand out more.
Big bang was a good series before its flanderization mid S3
Flanders - meaning
The process by which a single trait from a character is overstated and brandished to the point that it becomes the character's only trait. Flanderization is almost always for the worst and tends to draw viewers away from the the medium that the character represents.
Nick: I don't get it. Why is it that Brian Griffin was the voice of reason in earlier seasons of Family Guy, but now he is just a liberal douche?
Mark: Ever since the flanderization of the main characters back in season 4, the show really has taken a turn for the worst.
Flanders - definition
Monson kid with phrases many people laugh to and plays hockey as a "goal tender". His voice sometimes sounds like Martin Short. Sometimes he can act very gay.
