Daria

This is the only time you will see Daria smile with all of her teeth.

Where to see it: For now, it is only available on the Daria video, available in stores or online. Snippets of this episode were also shown on MTV's Behind the Scenes with Daria.

Differences: Daria sounds the same, but is drawn with longer legs and a more pronounced figure (as opposed to the regular episodes). Jane looks and sounds the same, but Helen and Jake sound slightly different, as does Quinn, who is wearing a different outfit than usual (the shirt from "The Invitation" plus shorts and knee socks). Brittany and Kevin also look and sound slightly different, with Brittany sounding more like the current Quinn. All the personalities are pretty much the same... except for Daria, who is much more saucy than in the regular episodes (or in Beavis and Butt-head, for that matter). The city of Lawndale also does not yet have a name, and Daria attends "Modern Day High School."

This short animatic episode was developed to give the executives at MTV a rough idea of what the show would be all about. Since it was basically intended as a "sampler," it has a very unfinished feel to it (simple black and white drawings, animatic-style, with voices and sound) and will probably never be aired. Karen Disher, production designer on Daria, was given the task of creating the look and feel of the characters and locations, though both would evolve a great deal by the time the show premiered with "Esteemsters" (#101).
