"It's a nice direction for Martin and, with a little
bit more time spent in the editing stage, I cannot think of any
reason
why Superfreaks won't be remembered as one of the great RACC series."
Tom Russell, Nov. 12, 2006

"I think the problem is, if I can carry Martin's television
metaphor a bit further-- it's that Superfreaks is being produced with
syndication in mind.  Series produced for syndication-- or with an
eye
towards it-- whether they be sitcoms or dramas-- often have 20+
episodes per season.  In a batch of 20-24 episodes, you'll have two
or
three really great ones, a handful of decent ones, and a lot of
clunkers." Tom Russell, May 22nd, 2007
