What is Flanderization?

>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.
>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 being an utter jackass.
>Note that the key to this trope is in how the process is a gradual thing, the character starts relatively normal with a few quirks, the quirks become more prominent and then gradually become the character.

Ned Flanders started off as a friendly neighbour. He turned into a gibberish-spouting fundie doormat. Means taking a characters most recognisable traits and dialling them up at the expense of everything else.
