When a character expresses a moment of joy in the most deadpan manner possible. Often by saying the word "yay" or "woo hoo" in a flat monotone or other tone of voice that does not exhibit joy. Can frequently be used sarcastically, when the "joy" is invoked by something very much not joyful. In this circumstance, it is inevitably said by the Deadpan Snarker. Just as often, however, the character in question may actually be truly joyful, and simply isn't an emotional or expressive person, or is incapable of being loud. Deadpan or Flat is the character's normal tone of voice, even when expressing happiness. This trope also works for characters who are so overjoyed that they are absolutely floored and stunned and not able to express their happiness properly. Just pure flat awe. Compare with And There Was Much Rejoicing. See also Flat "What" and Sarcasm Mode. Not to be confused with Petite Pride. Also see Dull Surprise and That Makes Me Feel Angry. |

Wizardry 8 takes this to its logical extreme with one of its male "Loner" voice sets. Every single line is read as though the character is perpetually bored or depressed (although balanced with some vicious Deadpan Snarking). Just imagine flat lines like: "Woo-hoo," on killing a high-level monster; "How exciting," on a level up; "I'm... very excited," on entering the Very Definitely Final Dungeon; and "I'm... filled with glee," on winning the game. | |

The intro to Might and Magic IV has random peasants saying "yaaaay" in the manner of this trope, in a very obvious shout-out to the Trope Namer for And There Was Much Rejoicing (the line prompting the Flat Joy was "and there was much rejoicing"). | |

Crash Team Racing has an unintentional example with Penta Penguin, who was created so late into the game's development that he may sometimes say "Penguin yay one/two" in a deadpan placeholder voice. This is Downplayed in the Nitro-Fueled remake, where Penta still says the line but in a more jovial tone. | |

The Simpsons: A memorable mocking of then Vice President Al Gore played this up. In "Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment", we have Hardboiled Detective Rex Banner, whose seriousness creates this trope even when he is happy. He reacts exactly the same way to seeing a message that his services are needed to enforce prohibition in Springfield and another message that the family dog had puppies: a slight narrowing of the eyes. Then there's his attempt to laugh off the idea that the Beer Baron was real — or, rather, his attempt to laugh — which sounds like he has dry heaves. In "Bart on the Road", Lisa is spending her days goofing off with Homer while he is on the job at the power plant, but after Bart calls her and swears her to secrecy as he admits that he, Milhouse, Nelson, and Martin are stranded in Knoxville after he forged a driving licence and used it to hire a car that has since been demolished, she is left grappling with an ethical dilemma. A few days later, Homer sits Lisa on his chair and spins it around and around, and when it finally comes to a stop, Lisa's reaction is a monotone "Whee". This is enough to clue Homer into something being wrong. |

In an episode from the 1975 Hanna-Barbera The Tom and Jerry Show, Robin Hood (here called Robin Ho Ho) tries to get his Merry Men to laugh, and they all respond with a mirthless "ha ha ha...ho ho ho...hee hee hee". This kind of laugh becomes the Running Gag of the whole episode right up to the end, when the Merry Men break out of this habit and have a truly joyous laugh at Robin Hood's expense. | |

In the anime version of Azumanga Daioh, Yukari-sensei sets up a dodgeball game with her, Tomo, and Yomi on one team, and Osaka, Chiyo and Kaorin on the other. Yukari enthusiastically introduces her team as "Team Yukari", prompting an insincere "Yay" from Tomo and Yomi. Osaka, meanwhile, introduces her team with equal enthusiasm as "Team Sea Slug", over the protests of her team-mates, who also end up pulling off this trope. | |

In BanG Dream!, this often happens with Tae, who is a perfectly sweet girl but quite a bit of a Cloudcuckoolander who very rarely expresses emotion beyond neutral pleasantness. In the game, one of her post-live reactions has her saying in a monotone "Yay, woo. Ummm...I'm super happy! Am I doing this right?", and Kasumi responding "You're still a bit stiff. You have to smile when you're happy, O-Tae!" And in another, after Arisa pulls a characteristic Tsundere move, Tae notes sympathetically that they both have trouble showing it when they're happy. | |

Droopy could be considered the Trope Codifier, he did so often. It never seemed like he was being sarcastic; rather, this was as expressive as he was physically able to get. Occasionally, he might break character for the sake of humor, erupting in joy and doing over-the-top Wild Takes and back flips, only to very suddenly stop and look at the camera, and give his usual flat joy line "You know what? I'm happy". This tended to happen when at the end of the episode he received a large sum of money, or a kiss from a beautiful woman. | |

The animated version of The Ricky Gervais Show employs this in the cartoon for Karl Pilkington's diary entry about learning the word "wewe",note a reference to Wewe Gombel, a female ghost with drooping breasts who kidnaps children according to Javanese and Sundanese mythology which Stephen Merchant pronounces "woo". When Steve reads Karl's comment that he could not imagine a situation where he would ever need the word "wewe", Karl is shown sitting at a table in a pub with a pint, looking around the room, then mouthing "wewe" (in time with Stephen's voice) with an expression of flat joy. | |

Kiniro Mosaic: In episode nine of the second season of the anime adaptation, we learn that the Inokuma twins are going to the pool, running around the room with arms up chanting "Pool. Pool. The School Pool". in a synchronized deadpan. Though it's worth noting that they are genuinely keen, it's just that the pair like to speak in a cute monotone fairly often. | |

In the beginning of the two-parter of Sailor Moon S on Usagi's birthday, she's all joy and smiles but the other girls seem distinctly flat and indifferent to the whole occasion. Turns out to be the girls trolling her both for a laugh and to keep her from figuring out the surprise birthday party at Rei's. | |

Odd Squad: Subverted in "Oscar and the Oscarbots", where a happy Otto gives a small "yay" in response to Olive giving him permission to grab a donut from the Donut Room. Otis is forced to endure a birthday party for one of Hopkins' coworkers in "A Job Well Undone". He definitely isn't happy about it, to the extent that he doesn't even try and participate in the conga line with Hopkins and his other coworkers. Olympia has this response to her sandwich allergies acting up in "Agent Oksana's Kitchen Nightmares". After she sneezes on eighty sandwiches that she made for all the agents of Precinct 13579, her cheerful facade drops for a second. |

Any crowd of people on Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons, or any other Jay Ward production, always gave very unenthusiastic, half-hearted, deadpan "yay"s and equally unenthusiastic "boo"s. This was most notable in Tom Slick, where at least one yay and boo was expected per episode (cued by the narrator's mention of Tom Slick and Baron Otto Matic, respectively). | |

If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device: The Emperor tends to express joy as flat, unemotional "Yey"s, partly because he doesn't have that much to be happy about, and partly because that's about as emotional as his Text-to-Speech Device can get. It may run in the family as well, as Rogal Dorn is about as expressive when actually happy (though then again, he expresses every emotion with about the same intensity). Every time Vulkan comes back to life, his soldiers scream "Vulkan lives!". But by the fourth time, the novelty has pretty obviously worn off. |

In the Puyo Puyo series, Sig has such a stoic demeanor that he will typically express joy in a deadpan manner. The official audio plays and novels give him a very flat, fake-sounding laugh that Amitie recognizes is genuine due to having been around him for so long. In Chapter 4 of Puyo Puyo Tetris, Sig cheers in his typical deadpan manner when he introduces a Puyo match between Amitie and Raffina, with the Unsound Effect saying "*Crowd-gone-wild cheer*". | |

A common occurrence in Stargate Universe. Whenever Dr. Rush, and sometimes, Eli Wallace, come up with a "solution" to a problem that ends up highlighting difficulties ahead, Dr. Volker will respond to the news with a very deadpan "Yaaaaaaay". Since Dr. Brody is no fan of Dr. Rush, he'll often join in with a bit more sarcasm. In one of the last episodes, when they are forced by aggressive automated drones to refuel using a class-O supergiant star instead of the usual red dwarf, and are facing a future of being dogged by said drones, Dr. Rush points out that at least they have a full tank of gas. Volker, Brody, AND Colonel Young all responded with a rather joyless "Yay". |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Subverted in the episode "Sonic Rainboom": Fluttershy is sincere when she practices cheering for Rainbow Dash, but it comes out as this because she's so meek and soft-spoken: "Yay...".When Rainbow Dash pulls off the eponymous move and saves Rarity and the Wonderbolts' lives, Fluttershy breaks into cheering so ecstatic that her voice cracks. Played straight in the episode "Look Before You Sleep". Rarity and Applejack, both of whom are not in good terms with one another at the time, express this when Twilight Sparkle announces their slumber party. In the episode "Maud Pie", the titular character is pretty much this in stark contrast to her sister, Genki Girl Pinkie Pie. |

Their behaviour contrasts sharply with the Greeks, especially the Spartans, whose reaction to seeing their athletes sweep the top three is as follows: A defining trait of the Corsicans in Asterix in Corsica, in line with the French stereotype. |

Frasier: After Frasier and Roz lose at the SeaBee Awards, Roz calls her grandmother and lies that they won again. She holds up the phone and gestures to the others to get them to sell it. Niles and Bulldog reply by saying "Yay" in obviously bored tones. | |

YuYu Hakusho: At the start of Yusuke's first case involving Genkai, he and Kuwabara end up outside her shrine for separate reasons. After seeing the Old Master for the first time, Yusuke is less than enthused about the case. Meanwhile, Kuwabara wasn't interested in special training, just some advice on how to keep his own power under control. So when she has everyone present draw lots to see who gets to move on to the basic tests,note She designed them as spiritual litmus paper; only those with sufficient spirit energy would change the paper to a passing color. Yusuke thinks to himself praying for a blank losing slip. What happens? | |
