Multiple Roles Cast[]
Some of the cast members portrayed two or more different minor characters in the show. Generally, the importance of the characters is so small and the appearances of the actor have a sufficient time distance, that the similarity of the portrayed characters is not obvious to the viewer.

|---|---|---|---|
| Brianna Brown | Ashley | 1 | 1 |
| Perky Blonde | 1 | 4 | |
| Jason Lansing | Bully #2 | 1 | 1 |

- ↑ Busy Philipps is not credited in the opening credits themselves, but immediately after them by "also starring". Only in the "Pilot", she is credited as "co-starring" in the ending credits. She is also present in all the promotional group pictures of the Freaks, and she appears in all 18 episodes, so that she, nevertheless, can be regarded as a regular cast member.
