I have to say, sushi freaks me out more than almost anything.
I’ve been going to the same dermatologist since I was on ‘Freaks and Geeks.’
One of my best memories is with a really good group of people in the Canberra Youth Theatre. We did a play about the seven deadly sins, and we had to dress up in costume and perform in Garema Place like the drama freaks we were. Great fun.
I’m a ’70s mom, and my daughter is a ’90s mom. I know a lot of women my age who are real computer freaks.
Personally, the NSA collecting data on me freaks me out. It totally freaks me out. And yet I’m from the generation that wants to put a GPS in their kids so I always know where they are.
I don’t like L.A. It’s just not fun. I don’t know why, but I just don’t get it. You have to drive to get everywhere, and when it rains everybody freaks out.
Actors are sensitive freaks, but it amazes me that it is something that I haven’t improved on over the years.
For some reason, the word ‘feminist’ freaks people out, but when you look it up, all it means is equal opportunity.
I love that my friends are all freaks.
I don’t like being in London too long, because everybody’s just looking straight forward, at nobody else. That freaks me out a little bit.
If all I ever wrote about was inner city freaks, I think it would be dishonest.
I don’t imagine myself, my work, or my life, fitting into any kind of standardized path. In fact, the idea of there even being a standard freaks me out a lot.
In my living room – it’s probably going to be moved to my office soon because it freaks too many people out – I have a huge seven foot statue of ‘Seven of Nine’ of ‘Star Trek Voyager.’
My 15-year-old threw open the door the other day to my room and screamed, ”Freaks and Geeks’ only has one season? Can they make another one?’ And I tried to explain to her that it happened a long time ago. She didn’t understand that because it felt very relevant to her.
I’m scared of the water, and I hate the sea. I’d be all right if it was clear and I could see what was underneath. But it’s the not knowing what’s there that freaks me out.
For some reason, people with comedy, any time they can detect a pattern, it kind of freaks them out. ‘Those guys are always together!’ Yeah, they’re a comedy team. Anything they can recognize as a pattern they think is a hole.
Twenty years from now, will we listen to Lady Gaga? No. She might think she is making a stand for the freaks and the weirdos. But they’re not going to have any decent music to play, are they?
To have a sort of career in music still kind of freaks me out every now and then.
I remember being unbelievable bummed when ‘Freaks and Geeks’ was canceled.
I’m not one of those freaks who can’t see anything past 1977.
We went online to surrogacy agencies. We interviewed lots of people – and I have to say, with all due respect, some of them were freaks. I was very leery of the process the whole way through.
I like ‘My So-Called Life’ and the ‘Riot Grrl Movement’ and ‘Freaks and Geeks.’
Freaks was a thing I photographed a lot. It was one of the first things I photographed, and it had a terrific kind of excitement for me. I just used to adore them. I still do adore some of them.
In a weird way, ‘Veronica Mars’ was my reaction to ‘Freaks and Geeks’ because ‘Freaks and Geeks’ was the show I wanted to write, the one I wanted to create, where there was no gimmick; you didn’t have to have a teenage private eye. It was just these beautiful small stories about real kids.
I think all dancers are control freaks a bit. We just want to be in control of ourselves and our bodies. That’s just what the ballet structure, I think, kind of puts inside of you.
What we’re most aware of in ‘Eight-Legged Freaks’ is how similar it is to other movies, a recombinant mutated species itself, the product of the crossbreeding of the suffering-from-gigantism movies of the 1950s and the 1990 B-picture classic ‘Tremors.’
