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.

ned flanders

An extremely God-fearing man, with creepy little kids named Rodd and Todd. Used to have a wife named Maude, but she was hit by a barrage of t-shirts shot from bazookas at a NASCAR race, causing her to fall off the bleachers. Has an extremely ripped chest, and had a relationship with Sar Sloane, the biggest hoe in Hollywood (in the Simpsons anyway). Also a huge Beatles fan.

Homer: I didn't know you were such a Beatles fan.

Flanders: Of course I am, the Beatles were bigger than Jesus! But your boy went Yoko and broke up my collection...
