Show Summary

The people of Lawndale just don't get Daria Morgendorffer. She's cool with that. See, Daria was born alienated, and now she's just trying to make it through high school with as little human contact as possible. Popularity, friends, activities... whatever. Daria lacks enthusiasm, but she makes up for it with sarcasm. Daria is the spin-off of MTV's most sucessful cartoon, Beavis and Butt-Head. Theme Song: La la la la la This is my stop Got to get off I may go *pop* Excuse me (repeat once) I've got to be direct La la la If I'm wrong please correct La la la You're standing on my neck La la la You're standing on my neck (short guitar cord) La la la la la (repeat) Rating: Usually all Daria episodes are rated TVPG-L.moreless

  • A spin-off as good as the show it was spunned-off.

    I didn't grow up with Beavis and Butt-head, but I did grow up with this show. Believe it or not, I was about 5 the first time I watched this show. My sister showed us it on MTV at like 3 AM in the morning while my (little) sister wanted to watch stuff like Dora...?! I remember us calling her "Diarrhea" but we really liked the show and I still do. It was a really funny and good show. And certainly better animated than B&B. I think the reason my sister watched this when she was in High School was because she could relate to her. Sort of. She certainly acted like her. Now, she's not fat anymore, she's healthy and living in another state. This show will bring me memories of her and my childhood. Even though I was REALLY young.moreless
  • Daria, looking back from thicker glasses

    9.5
    Daria was one of those shows that made the 90's what it was !

    I was in high school when daria was on Beavis and Butthead and was going through the college years when Her spin off aired so i could still very much relate.

    The one problem i have with daria now being MUCH older, when i watched it all again when i got the series on dvd is that she comes off as sort of snide ungreatful bitch( i stil love her)!!

    it just kind of ticks me off that while Kevin and brittney and chuck ect where morons they where stil nice kids who DID like Daria they where more or less annoyances(sp) that she never had much respect for or tried to have a respect for....although she could kind of open herself up to jodie.

    HHmmmmmm as i write this i think back at how i did the same thing let my sardonic attitude get the better of me but now CAN appreciate those "stereotypes" i call my peers......Lesson learned Daria !! Well Played.moreless
  • A show that's good for taking your time.

    9.5
    You want show that will take your time, in the exchange of good entertainment? Then this show is for you.



    Plot: Daria Morgendorffer, a smart girl in high school who likes to have fun as soon as possible, getting friends and being recognized, always takes things up to a quirky way. Episodes are great, and really unique plots each episode. There are some forgotten thinsg in some of those episodes, but not much.



    Characters: They're nice and have their own good traits, there are some characters with issues, but they display it in a funny way. Voice acting and dialogue is nice.



    Humor: Sarcastic, quirky, ironic humor. They can do it like a pro.



    Art: Detailed correctly, in a simple drawing. Fantastic. Animation is great.



    Overall: 9.5. There's some tiny bit of flaw in here, but it shouldn't do a thing.moreless
  • Smart and sarcastic!

    Daria is a nerd you'll want to follow. Great visuals and well played character Daria!
  • As a teenager back in the 90's this show was exactly what I needed.

    Daria and the whole town of Lawndale has entertained me greatly throughout the years, but none more so than when I was a teen in the 1990's. Picture this is you can... most people my age at the time were either into Beavis and Butthead, or Gangster Rap, so you can see where having niche for nerdy/smart girls would do wonders for M.T.V., and for said girls themselves.

    Daria is a typical brain with a healthy amount of cynicism. her best friend Jane is a gifted artist with a really hot brother (he was probably my first, last, and only cartoon heart throb). Quinn Daria's sister is very popular and let's just say nowhere as bright asDaria. The Morgendorffers, Daria and Quinn's parents are typical 90's succeeding parents, a little blind to what is going on at home, but love their kids and what to do right by them none the less.

    You will also meet an array of characters from the High School. The cheer leader, the jock, the goth, and the fashion club. All them are sure to take you back to yourown High School days, and probably remind you of someone you knew, if not yourself.

    This is an exxcellant series. I enjoy watching it still today, however thank the heavens it was there for me as a teen!
