In a World of Snark, every character is a Deadpan Snarker. These works usually lie far on the Cynical end of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism, and most of their humor comes from the characters' reactions to what they perceive as their unsatisfactory lives and constant snarking matches. This is not to say that this world is incapable of having genuine, tender moments. Half the cast may be jerks, but the rest may be jerks with hearts of gold. If they're all jerks without the heart of gold, then it's a World of Jerkass. Compare Speech-Centric Work. |

Belgariad isn't a comedy or very cynical, but you're lucky to go two pages in the series without two characters snarking at each other or nothing in particular. One could argue that a significant part of Garion's growing up is his education in snarkology. | |

Heroics: The number of characters who aren't snarky can be counted on one hand, and it's almost impossible to find a (named) character who doesn't make at least one sarcastic comment. Snarky Tess Cassidy is a standout, but she gets some good competition from everyone else. | |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Somewhat downplayed, but aside from the returning Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) chronic snarkers like Dr. Rick Stanton and Mark Russell, almost every other character – Alan Jonah, the Chen twins, Ford Brody, Ren Serizawa – and new characters like Steve Martin have something witty or snarky to say, even if only occasionally depending on the character. It's mostly the humans and Vivienne Graham who snark, but San starts to make a few snarks as his Character Development since attaching to Vivienne progresses and he picks up more cues from her, as do his evil elder brothers after they use the Many's human-absorbing Hive Mind. Plus, it turns out that even the other natural-born Earth Titans have at least some concept of snarking (especially Rodan), though the snarks from most of them are rare and muted. | |

Gilmore Girls: Everybody snarks in the quirky town of Stars Hollow, though some of its Cloudcuckoolander inhabitants sometimes serve as The Ditzes and dumbasses. The Proud Elite represented by Emily and Richard Gilmore and posh Chilton and Yale students are snarky a lot as well. Rory and Lorelai trade snarks with each other in most of their dialogues, and they both love arguing affectionately with Luke (an owner of the local bistro and Lorelai's Will They or Won't They? love interest) or Sookie (Lorelai's Heterosexual Life Partner). Luke and his nephew Jess have Snark-to-Snark Combat dynamics. Well, the list could go on and on. | |

Grimm has cops as a large percentage of its main cast, and they tend to snark as a coping mechanism anyway in real life. Add in assorted weird events, conspiracies, and so on, and it's not a big surprise that even the non-cop cast members can hold their own in snark-fests. | |

House. Let's see. We have a protagonist who practically cannot exhale without snarking, we have his team who eventually learn to snark back at him (enabling 2-4 player snarkball ping pong matches), we have his best friend who normally is unsnarky but at times cannot resist it, we have his boss who breathes sarcasm (possibly as a reaction to the snarking protagonist)... | |

Happens when Keith Giffen and J. M. DeMatteis write superhero comic books, usually drawn by Kevin Maguire. They played this trope in their acclaimed runs in JLI and Justice League 3000 for DC Comics, and in their run in the Defenders title for Marvel Comics, basically turning them into the Alternate Company Equivalent of the former. | |

The Carry On films had every character making a snide comment or two in order to make the puns flow easily. One of the worst offenders was any character portrayed by Kenneth Williams, who would not only snark, but make aside glances and comments, roll his eyes within character eye-shot, and even put on a Simpleton Voice to belittle the people he couldn't stand. Others included Sid James when he didn't get his own way, occasionally a Charles Hawtrey character would have their moments too whenever he suffered from Not Now, Bernard, and lustful female characters when they weren't being satisfied by their spouses. | |

In Nightmare Factory, everybody snarks at some point. It's practically a requirement for every character. Emai always has a smart remark ready, as shown in this scene, right after Phirre has Kreyul turned into a spider. Kreyul can be an even bigger snarker than Emai. And of course, the Game Master himself, Phirre is very snarky. |

Dragaera, especially the Vlad novels. Almost every character is either a Deadpan Snarker or someone whom First-Person Smartass Vlad can make snarky comments about. Given that they're presented as transcripts of narrated recordings and Vlad is a known Unreliable Narrator, it's possible he's just projecting. | |

Scott Lynch's Gentleman Bastard, where the lead character is a snarker, his trusted associate is a snarker, the rest of their team is full of snarkers, their allies, enemies and targets are snarkers. The flashbacks show that the past times also were full of snark, whether it is in Camorr or among Bondsmagi. Locke Lamora seems to be physically incapable of not snarking, even if doing so would save him a world of pain — which may be why he is the main character. | |

Pillars of Eternity. While the frequency varies, with Hirvias and Edér being the true standouts, every non-generic party member (save for Grieving Mother and possibly the Watcher themself) finds themselves at least occasionally indulging in witty quips and banter. A fair number of the non-party characters fire off their share of jests as well. | |

Harry Potter: There's Snape, McGonagall and Phineas Nigellus for starters. Much of the humour, especially in the later books, comes from the characters snarking at each other. In the core trio of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, snark is passed around like a hot potato. Fred and George, as the series's two most blatant sources of Plucky Comic Relief, deserve special mention. It's to the point where the series is the first one to have its own Deadpan Snarker page. | |

Scrubs. Janitor, Cox, Jordan, Kelso, Carla, JD... List goes on and on. Everybody is sarcastic with everybody. In one episode, it becomes a plot point that nobody dares to snark at Carla even when everyone in the hospital is stated as insulting everyone else. When Carla hears the others think she can't take a joke like the rest, she relents, after which the others proceed to make fun of her for two whole hours off-screen. |

Frequent in The Dresden Files since the main character is a massive Deadpan Snarker and almost every other character has at least a few snarky moments. Even Michael gets a moment or two, particularly when borrowing Harry's name for the Denarians. Harry claims that the Dresdenverse runs so strongly on this that badass immortals will be insulted if he doesn't snark at them, implying they're beneath his snarking. Take that with a bit of salt, because he was justifying mouthing off to two incredibly-dangerous beings to one of their lower-ranked (but still badass) coworkers.Specifically... Harry mouthed off near automatically, then claimed that not snarking at them would imply they aren't badasses. After all, he's known for mouthing off at beings more powerful than him, and if he doesn't, then how powerful are they, really? | |

Garfield. Mainly the title cat because Cats Are Snarkers, but Butt-Monkey Jon (in the strip's early months), Deadpan Snarker Dr. Liz Wilson (during the 1980s), and Silent Snarker Odie (sometimes) have got plenty of it. Special mention goes to the bathroom scale. | |

Eddings' second fantasy series, The Elenium, plays the trope a little straighter, with its generally Darker and Edgier tone. Everyone gets in on the snarking, major and minor characters alike. A few characters, such as the Thalesian knight Sir Ulath, seem incapable of saying anything that isn't snarky. | |

The world of Kid Icarus: Uprising is very much a World of Snark. This is compounded by the game's lack of a fourth wall since the characters will lampshade and snark about video game conventions.

Hayate the Combat Butler: As the characters know that they are in fact characters in a manga/anime it typically results in literally almost every character being sarcastic or witty if they have any lines at all. Nagi and Hinagiku tend towards snarking at villains and some of the more ridiculous weirdos that pop up, but the Student Council Rangers, Ayumu, Wataru, and even Maria all make remarks at the expense of the plot or craziness around them. Hayate himself probably takes the cake, especially in the manga where he is a lot more cynical than he usually appears and has had exasperated reactions to just about everything and everybody. The series is so full of snark that when Hayate and Hinagiku are inadvertently acting like a lovey-dovey couple with no other characters around it resorts to using nameless background characters, a pigeon, and even a potted plant to make sarcastic comments about them. | |

In The Big Bang Theory, the only thing more prevalent than nerdy references is deadpan snarkery. Penny, Leonard, and Sheldon have loads of glorious three-way Snark-to-Snark Combat (or two-way, depending on how many are in the room), while Raj and Howard argue Like an Old Married Couple (which Bernadette eventually gets in on), and Amy can more than hold her own with Sheldon. Stuart often gets good one-liners, usually referencing his Butt-Monkey status, and Wil Wheaton gives as good as, if not better than, he gets from Sheldon, as do Kripke and Leslie Winkle. From what we've seen of everyone's families, the snark seems to be genetic. | |

The Order of the Stick: All of the main cast snarks, including Roy and V, who usually serve as the straight man, Elan, who until the fourth book had a tenuous grasp on sarcasm (although most of his snarks seem to be accidental anyway), and Redcloack (who serves as the straight man to Xykon's Affably Evil attitude and the Monster in the Dark's childlike naïveté). It's almost guaranteed that most named characters (and some unnamed ones) will snark at one point or another. At one point, Elan even takes a class that allows his attacks to be based on puns, one-liners, and snark as opposed to his Strength score, showing that the universe itself can be bent to someone's will through snark. | |

Early episodes of Red Dwarf have Lister and Rimmer's interaction consisting solely of Snark-to-Snark Combat. The ship's computer Holly (his male form) hardly opened his mouth without being ironic or sarcastic. Cat is the group's dumbass but he had his snarky moments as well. Holly in a female form alternated between The Ditz and a solid snarker. When they got android Kryten, he was quite servile and literal-minded, but Lister managed to break his programming. In his "lie mode", he could snark gloriously. | |

Tomb Raider: All over the place, particularly from the Core Design era, where the majority of spoken dialogue consists of snarky back-and-forth. In Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, Lara's Dialogue Tree usually consists of a mean, snarky comment and a meaner snarky comment, with the recipient usually giving as good as they get. | |

Although it's more subtle than many other examples, The Chronicles of Narnia is actually an example of this. Edmund gets the most, but he's far from the only one. The majority of characters get at least one or two moments. | |

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is wall-to-wall snark. It's amazing that putting all the heroes together under the directorship of Joss Whedon in The Avengers doesn't lead to people having snark overdoses in the cinema. In the Director's Commentary for The Avengers, Joss notes that the reason Agent Coulson was made a Squeeing Captain America Fan Boy was that everyone else in the film had a dry wit. Whedon called it "a desert of wit," which makes it sound like all that wit canceled itself out and the film lacked wit. Iron Man 3 gets a snark master, Shane Black, and it shows. Avengers: Infinity War loses Whedon, but given it combines everyone from the previous movies, there are enough personality clashes for non-stop snark. Avengers: Endgame has both personality clashes and the fact everyone became sour from the previous movie's Downer Ending to ensure the snark continues at this peak. |

Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis have the entire cast snarking it up, some more deadpan than others. Even The Stoic Teal'c gets in on it now and again, and with him, less is more: it's epic when he does it. It's not just limited to the heroes either, with Ba'al and Todd the Wraith having a lot of fun engaging in Snark-to-Snark Combat against the people of Earth, often when they've been forced into an Enemy Mine situation. | |

The MCU might be famous for its (occasional over)use of snarky quips, but the fanfic Bucky Barnes Gets His Groove Back & Other International Incidents elevates it into an art form. Most of the dialogue and narration is one snarky and utterly hysterical quip after another, elevating the already ridiculous events of the plot into total absurdist comedy and turning the occasional offhand flash of angst into horrible, tear-jerking punches to the gut. | |

The main cast of the first four Star Trek series qualify, in a relatively restrained way, adding more to the "high-class" image of Starfleet and Trek humans than anything else.

Yes, Minister, an Eighties British Government Procedural satirising Whitehall. Jim Hacker, said minister, was often out-smarted by Sir Humphrey and managed to utter just a desperate snarky one-liner. His assistant Bernard was torn between being loyal to the minister and to Sir Humphrey, and he often snarked at both. Sir Humphrey was a master of elaborate sophisticated and sneering speeches. Jim Hacker's wife was a very nice lady but could be snide with her husband as well, especially about politics. | |

Hogan's Heroes. The only main characters who don't get to snark at least Once per Episode are Carter and Schultz, and even they get their chance at snark sometimes. Even Adolf verdammt Hitler gets an amusing snark in. When Hogan, as part of The Plan, pretends to want to spread German propaganda, he spreads it in a way that gives a Nazism-is-stupid impression. Hitler himself calls the studio to tell Klink that if Hogan tries to escape, to let him. | |

Tyranny, another Obsidian game, is even more filled with snark. Every party member, even Kills-In-Shadow, gets in a good quip from time to time, usually at the expense of the ever-bickering archons (who engage in Snark-to-Snark Combat themselves) or one another. The Fatebinder is given plenty of opportunities as well, and some of the memetic "Glare Silently" options serve as a Sarcasm Failure for when even snark is insufficient. | |

The Fear Mythos: A number of stories in the Mythos have this element. The main exception is characters who are openly broken or just confused, rather than Sad Clown or gleefully Axe-Crazy types. Snarky characters tend to be one of those two, given the Crapsack World nature of most Mythos settings. | |

Red vs. Blue is full of people who cope with their Crapsack World by snarking about it and each other. The full list of characters who don't snark at some point is Donut, who's too nice; Caboose, who's too stupid; and the Counselor, who's too creepy calm. | |

The Scream series. At the time, it was revolutionary for being among the firstnote There had been predecessors, including Scream director Wes Craven's own New Nightmare a couple of years prior, but Scream was the film that truly popularized it. horror movie worlds in which the main characters were aware of the existence of horror movies. Casey, one of the first victims, watches her boyfriend die because she messed up on Ghostface's trick question about horror trivia, while Final Girl Sidney voices her disdain for scary movies as being filled with bad acting, fatally stupid decisions, exploitation, and tired clichés. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: The dub gave basically everyone a few extra levels in snark, to the point where Duels are basically weapons-grade Snark-to-Snark Combat. You can tell that Cerebus Syndrome hits hard in season 3 by the way people stop snarking, and even then, Zane and Aster pick up the slack. | |

Fanfiction writers for the H.I.V.E. Series face a challenge upon entering the fandom: writing clever remarks is required for all characters, in all situations, at all times. In-universe, arguments go on for pages about who is the funniest. The snark is strongest with Otto, Shelby, and Raven. However, every one of the good guys and most of the bad guys are snarky as well. Laura will only snark in dangerous situations, and Wing will only snark if someone questions his ability to snark. Overall, in every scene, there is someone who is willing to snark in that situation. | |

Batman Returns: In a film as nihilistic as this one, this should come as no surprise. While the Penguin, Selena Kyle, and Alfred lead the pack in pure snarkiness, nearly every character from the Mayor on down has a snark moment (except Commissioner Gordon, who has maybe five short lines of dialogue in this outing). It's telling that the (ironically named) Ice Princess, the only character integral to the plot who does not behave this way, is also the only non-villainous character who gets killed. Contrast this with the 1989 predecessor film, where, while the Joker's dialogue is snark-a-minute, Vicki Vale radiates optimistic sincerity to a downright adorable degree (except toward the end), and Bruce Wayne himself is more emotional and personable than the stone-faced smartass he becomes in Returns. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! Reality's Curtain: A vast majority of the dialogue is just composed of characters being sarcastic and/or insulting. Special mention goes to Yamato for using his snark to be a troll to Kimiko, and to Matsuda who oftentimes just can't be bothered supplying a Shut Up, Hannibal! so he snarks instead, as well as using his sarcasm abilities to flat-out bully his best friend. | |

It's extremely common for characters in the Zero Escape series to snark at each other in the several Deadly Games. Virtue's Last Reward takes the prize, with the entire cast throwing bitter sarcastic replies at questions or comments that didn't ask for them on a regular basis... except Luna. | |

The Biter Bit: It is, after all, a Harry Potter fic. However, it increases the already dense concentration of snark in the Potterverse by making Luna a Deadpan Snarker when she isn't being a Cloudcuckoolander. If a character has more than a single line of dialogue in this fic and isn't called Horace Slughorn, they're going to snark. | |

The cast of Blackadder changes every season, but it tends to be divided almost evenly between the snarkers (Blackadder, Melchett, Darling, and so on) and the people who are too dim to notice when they're being snarked at (such as Baldrick, George, Baldrick, Queen Elizabeth, and Baldrick).

Doctor Who is just full of this. Watch a multi-Doctor episode. Any multi-Doctor episode. Half the dialogue is snark between the different incarnations. Actually, just watch an episode with more than one Gallifreyan in it. The race seems to have snark coded in their DNA. In The Enemy of the World, most of the topside characters are snarky. Astrid. Benik. The Doctor, naturally enough, exchanges snark with Salamander when they finally meet. Fariah, who even dies with a snark. Griffin, the pessimistic chef. "The Robots of Death" contains a lot of Paranoia Fuel between a lot of clever people who all hate each other. They communicate mostly in sarcasm, and occasionally in death threats. The Fourth Doctor (Awesome Ego), Romana (Women Are Wiser), and K-9 (Silicon Snarker) are one of the most sarcastic TARDIS teams of the Classic series, and their era's heavy focus on humour made it constant. Watch an episode of the Sixth Doctor's era. Six snarks at everyone in equal measure, and everyone else from his companions to his enemies give it back to him! The Moffat era really is where this begins to be obvious. The Eleventh Doctor and the Ponds communicate exclusively like this, as does the Twelfth Doctor with Clara and Nardole. This continues into Chibnall's era. Even though Thirteen is a bubblier Doctor, she and team TARDIS can barely last an episode snipping at each other. Hell, Thirteen even snarks at her enemies in such a way that puts other Doctors to shame. This is especially true come series 13 with the introduction of Dan Lewis, who has Snark-to-Snark Combat with Yazmin Khan, among others. |

Blake's 7, set in a Crapsack World where snark is universal, having such uses as: distraction (anyone in need of a getaway; Vila); defence (anyone being held prisoner, tortured, shot at, etc; anyone dealing with Avon), coercion (snark-to-snark combat; Blake); everything (Avon). The more idealistic characters (Gan, Cally, Dayna, Blake) entered the series with a relatively low level of snark. Their snarkiness grew on a par with their cynicism, especially with Blake. Avon was King of Snark, and every character becomes more snarky proportionally to how often they interact with him. Except Dayna, who can out-snark him from her first episode. | |

Horatio Hornblower features many a Deadpan Snarker among the characters. Let us count the ways: Captain Keene, Captain Pellew, Midshipman (later Acting Lieutenant and Lieutenant) Archie Kennedy, the Duchess AKA Kitty Cobham, Gentleman Snarker Major Edrington, Tall, Dark, and Snarky Lieutenant Bush, and some more. They do not exchange snarks with each other, but they are paired with poor Sarcasm-Blind Horatio, who is a genius at everything else, but irony, jokes, and sarcasm usually escape him. However, some of Archie's smartass comments bring about his rare smile or chuckle. And occasionally, even Hornblower shows a possession of very dry observational wit. | |

In Deadpool (2016), the only character who isn't snarky is Colossus. Everyone else does nothing but crack jokes, especially the title character, to the point that not snarking is a sign that something is wrong. | |

The Infinite Loops takes place in a multiverse of snark, mostly due to every reality being trapped in a time loop and those that are aware of it have to either accept that fact or potentially go insane. | |

South Park, to the point where sarcasm itself is made fun of. "Sarcastaball" goes a step further and has Randy Marsh accidentally invent a sport by sarcastically suggesting it. Everyone involved with it in any way only speaks of it sarcastically, to the point that Randy temporarily loses his ability to speak of anything without sarcasm. | |

Veronica Mars. It's easier to list who isn't a Deadpan Snarker, and the only main character on that list is a dog. The rest of the list is two minor recurring characters. | |

Back To Us: All four of the main characters engage in plenty of playful sniping, and so does the rest of the cast. The number of characters who don’t snark at others could be counted on one hand. | |

Madam Secretary would have it that deadpan humor is the rule in the US State Department, which is not really surprising for an organization full of very smart and frequently very frustrated politicians and bureaucrats. Everybody from Secretary Elizabeth McCord on down to her teenage children gets in a few good jabs. | |

Nearly every character has had a line or few of snark in Once Upon a Time but being a Deadpan Snarker seems to be a requirement if you are one of the villain characters of the show. | |

It's almost a pathological habit of the people of Blackburn from Mavericks. If you lived in a Crapsack World of insane mercenaries and gangbangers on every corner, you'd develop a defense mechanism too. | |

It gets extreme in Dragon Age II, where everyone is sarcastic, regardless of whatever tropes they fit into. Even Aveline, Merrill and Fenris get in on the action occasionally. However, they are all overshadowed by a Hawke with the Sarcastic Personality, who takes the prize as Kirkwall's resident goofball and Bunny-Ears Lawyer. | |

Firefly: The whole Serenity crew are Deadpan Snarkers, especially Mal (The Captain and The Hero), Zoe (his Lancer) and her husband of an Ace Pilot Wash. Jayne, a hired gun and their tough guy, is the group's Ditz. Kaylee was generally too nice to snark, but when she was angry, she could do it. (Inara: "So are there aliens among us?"— Kaylee: "Yes, and one of them is a doctor." She said it when Simon kind of insulted her, albeit not intentionally.) It's safe to say that everybody from the main cast had some smart-ass comments. | |

BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm takes place in a fantasy version of the Internet, so of course it was going to be this by default. Even the NPCs are snarky, but some of the protagonists, (mainly Til and Anonymous), take it to a whole new level. | |

Friends: Although Chandler is known as the Deadpan Snarker of the gang, the rest of the characters (apart from maybe Joey) would be extremely snarky on any other show. It's just hard to notice because 90% of his dialogue is snark, while everyone else only manages a weak 70%. | |

This is an accurate description of Men in Black: The Series. In rough descending order of deadpan-ness in MiB alone, you've got Zed, K, Elle, J, and the Worms, and that's without getting into the rest of the cast or the one-off characters. | |

YuYu Hakusho: Especially in the English dub, with the somewhat simplistic dialogue replaced with witty and sarcastic comments/insults. Especially Hiei and Yusuke, but also Kurama, Genkai, Shizuru, Kaito, Koenma, Jorge Saotome, Koto (when the idiocy around her gets too much, especially towards Chu and Jorge), Shishiwakamaru (in the final season, at least), Sniper, Atsuko, Toya (when he's not being stoic), hell even Kuwabara shows this very rarely. The snark doesn't stop with the heroes and their supporters. Some of the major villains such as Sensui and Sakyo had their moments. | |

The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye. Even characters who aren't typically snarky in other Transformers books, like Prowl or Optimus Prime, will suddenly take a level of Deadpan Snarker when they make an appearance. | |
