Uncle Frank is a brilliant minor character.

He's an absolute prick played superbly.

I like Fuller as well, but he seems proud that he pisses the bed, the little freak.

Having just watched Freaks and Geeks again for the umpteenth time, I was stuck by what a brilliantly observed character Harris is. A king nerd, oracle to the lesser geeks. Knows a lot about life in comparison to them, but doesn't know how much he doesn't know. Completely at ease with himself. Fantastically played down to every intonation and expression.

W2C these glasses Harris wore in Freaks and Geeks : r/streetwear

The guy who played him is also amazing in The Royal Tenenbaums, and I believe they're the only two roles he's ever played. A great shame.

He was only in one episode of a long-running show, but how about Reg Trotter? Father of the main characters, son of a supporting character, turns up one Christmas to wreck the whole thing and is sent running by the end of the episode.

Lunchlady Doris and her deadpan cynicism. “The cafeteria staff is complaining about the mice in the kitchen. I wanna hire a new staff.” “There’s very little meat in these gym mats!” “I get two paychecks this way.” And countless other classics.

He was also in the Rock & Chips prequel episodes.
