This is what I do - I changed it this year because I missed calls as Klooking did. I wait for the pitch to come in and hear the smack, stand up, signal and make call. I had to slow it way down this year. I caught myself last year making a few calls before the ball crossed the plate. Whoops
As for showy, I punch out the kids that look at the third strike. I give a little one-two punch to the side. I have done this with all ages and never had a single complaint.
