I've never seen this series, but I've seen clips of it on the internet. My sister used to watch this show when she was in high school. Apparently the show changed identities sometime down the road. Here is a link to what made me think this: http://www.culledculture.com/daria-and-the-crop-top-anomaly/

It says that the 'crop top episode' hinted at the show's future shift into a teen drama. I looked up the show on wikipedia and it says the show was a sitcom, teen drama, and a dark comedy. For those who have watched most of the show or all of it, did it start off as a comedy and end as a teen drama? I wanna know, but I don't have the money to buy the show on DVD.

I never really watched it religiously...but I remember early on it was pretty much exclusively a dark comedy with Daria being this cynical kid living in an upper middle class suburb surrounded by the usual teenage BS that goes on in high school.

I don't think it was ever a serious drama

Daria is one of my all time favourite shows. I love the sarcasm and cynicism, it reminds me of a lot of the same crap I went through as a teenager.
As for the comment, no the show was never really a teen drama. It did have serious moments, but for the most part it kept its deadpan comedic tone.

I know what the show is, but never really watched it. She appeared with Beavis and Butthead too I know that.

I used to love that show!

Daria appears to be extremely unlikeable and seems like a bitch.

Okay, apparently Daria was more expressive and less cynical when she first appeared in "Beavis and Butthead".

I HATED Beavis & Butthead but when Daria spun off into her own show, I loved it. I didn't watch religiously but I watched whenever I found it on and I wasn't doing anything else.

Beavis and Butthead were far more memorable than Daria. The two actually have a place in pop culture history, Daria never did.

remember Daria with Beavis And Butthead? ;D

Yes, I have seen Daria a few times on Cartoon Network late some years ago now.

It was an okay escape for half an hour but I found her lack of charisma/personality to be a dulling experience.

I really enjoyed this show and enjoy it even more as an adult. It is so well written and I think the guy who created it went on to write for Colbert Report.

Oh yeah. I haven't seen this show in ages, never knew I was for teenagers, I watched it as a toddler lol.

I loved this show!

I misread this as a bodily ailment.  ;D

She was first on Beavis & Butthead where the boys did call her that ;D

They couldn't even pronounce her name.

Nope lol

I actually wrote to Daria on her MTV page and asked her if she and Trent were an "item!" and she said "gee are you sure your name isn't 666?"? ;D

Daria was the animated embodiment of the start to the Clinton 1990s. Her sarcasm and snarling was no different from that of a teenager in 1993. All this show needed was a slacker and a history teacher would be able to show an episode of it to his class.

When did you do that?

When did you do that?


It would have to be some time in the late late 90s or very early 2000s. The show ended in 2002.

When did you do that?


The show started in 1997 and ended in 2002 I'd say it was 99/00 when I did that.  :) It was quite hilarious the way the actor who played her answered me.  It was quite sarcastic.  She obviously thought I was the devil for asking her that question. LOL! ;D

  ;D

First season is out on dvd.  Not sure about the second.  After a while the show became kind of boring.
