You know, I thought she killed herself, man. One last thing: one of my favorite Daria-related gags is from the reboot season of Beavis and Butt-Head (S8E6: “Drones”), when they discuss what became of Daria.īeavis: I know Daria killed herself, I remember that.īutt-head: Uhh she didn’t kill herself, she just moved away.īeavis: Whoa, really? That’s kinda surprising. I’m optimistic about the spinoff I’m not expecting it to have the same feel as Daria but I hope it does the characters justice. Yeah there were a few episodes focused on her but I wanted more.

I wish more time was spent developing Jane. I didn’t mind Tom he seemed like the typical privileged boy next door. Not to say Daria’s sardonic wit ever disappeared, but it matured with her character. In the original pilot, Daria still had that edge, and I’d say it even continued in S1 with Daria and Quinn proactively antagonizing each other, before the edge mellowed out a bit in S2 and beyond. On B+B, Daria’s humor was acidic af and I feel like she kinda had to have this assertive personality to adapt to their universe (“ diarrhea, cha cha cha!”). First, I love how Daria transformed from one show to another. This week on the pod, Margaux and Emilie revisit the seminal animated series Beavis and Butt-Head and Daria. Early this year, I watched the entirety of Beavis and Butt-Head and then I watched Daria over the fall. Saturday morning cartoons were for babies when you had MTV Animation's Beavis and Butt-Head and Daria. I’ve been binging on Mike Judge’s work as of late.
