A well-done Freak Out makes the [[WhamEpisode audience freak out as well]], and provides more CharacterDevelopment than an entire season could in the same. Sadly, this is rare -- all too often, it is used as a desperate gimmick to "revitalize" a show. Viewers should beware if a Freak Out comes due to ExecutiveMeddling, if it comes after several seasons, if it makes the character DarkerAndEdgier, or [[HotterAndSexier if it makes the character hornier]]. If all four happen at once, chances are high that the show is JumpingTheShark.

* ''Fanfic/MyHeroAcademiaUnchainedPredator'': When Ragdoll gets a lock on the Slayer, instead of getting his location, she finds out about the man's eternal war with hell. [[TheScream She screams loud enough]] to cause the heroes on her boat to jerk back and the heroes on Pixie-Bob's boat to hear it as well. They had to get Midnight to knock her out, lest she tear her own head open.
