===Voicing=== The voice actors of the show ''Freakazoid!'' included various actors from other television series and films. [[Tress MacNeille]], [[Maurice LaMarche]], [[Jeff Bennett]], and [[Frank Welker]], who all provided voices in the series ''[[Animaniacs]]'', were on ''Freakazoid!''. Actors [[Ed Asner]], [[Ricardo Montalbán]], [[Larry Cedar]], [[Jonathan Harris]], and [[Stephen Furst]] also provided voices for the series. Also, writers [[John P. McCann]] and [[Paul Rugg]] (who played Freakazoid) added voices themselves. Casting for the show had been difficult for the ''Freakazoid!'' staff, as no lead character had been found even after extensive auditions.<ref name="Rugg">{{Cite news |last=Rogers |first=Brett |year=1996 |title=Freaking Out with Paul Rugg |url=http://members.aol.com/baltohoya/rugg.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071104024703/http://members.aol.com/baltohoya/rugg.htm |archive-date=November 4, 2007 |access-date=June 29, 2007 |work=Animato! |issue=36}}</ref> Eventually, when writer Paul Rugg was brought to demonstrate the voice in a recording session, he ended up filling the role, as he said: "I went in there and did it. Then they played it for [[Steven Spielberg]] and he said 'Yep! Fine, sure, great,' and then I panicked ... and I had to do it."<ref name="Rugg" /> Rugg played the role of Freakazoid through the entire series run.
