@JoeRamoni has a Few Words to Add to the Definition of #Deadpan: #SeeLeslieNielsen

The video explaining that addition is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

The word “Deadpan” is built on the words Dead + #Pan (slang for Face). #Deadpanned 
The word "Pan" (if not the prefix that means 'All') is built on ancient words that mean "to Spread" or -is short for Panoramic (in Panoramic Camera) or "to Protect" (root of the mythical protector of shepherds and flocks, woods and fields).
