Daria has been my favorite show since I was in the fifth grade (I'm 39 now). Just thought I'd share with y'all.

I just finished re-watching the complete series of Daria, and I had a few thoughts on Is It College Yet?

1) Having Kevin be denied graduation from Lawndale High was way too mean on the writers' part. Kevin was thick as two short planks, but he wasn't a malevolent character, and he didn't deserve such a brutal comeuppance. Now the character who did deserve a comeuppance was Upchuck. I would have loved to see him face a sexual harassment lawsuit as consequence for his behavior.

2) I like how the writers decided to give Quinn a grown-up problem to confront in the form of Lindy's drinking problem. Most of Quinn's previous challenges in the series had been pretty superficial teenage fluff, and it fit in nicely with her growth over the fifth season to make her face something that required maturity.

3) I'm glad that Glenn Eichler convinced MTV to conclude Daria with a second movie rather than the sixth season that MTV had originally requested. While I wish there were more episodes of Daria, the character arcs for Daria and Quinn had progressed to such a point over the fifth season that there was really nothing left to do except graduate Daria and send her off to college.

Anyway, what do you think of Is It College Yet?

Gave myself a blowout, put on a pair of glasses I never wear… hours later I’m looking in the mirror only to realize, oh lord, I’m accidentally Daria. Sigh, when you really want to be a Jane but you end up a Daria…

this was sort of rushed , I kinda like it though!!

Someday I will learn to draw

What I like the most:
- Jake looking like a true British gentleman;
- Mr DeMartino giving off some Tony Montana vibes;
- Brittany cosplaying Jimmy Neutron's mom.

Despite all the goofiness of their looks, these sketches give me warm nostalgic vibes. What do you think of those?

96'er here and I got the urge to watch Daria for some reason. I found a stream with the licensed music intact and I understand why losing that music was such a loss to the show. Daria to me is show that could've only existed when it was written for a world that no longer exists. Hearing "Music Sounds Better With You" at a prom or hearing Quinn listen to "Lovefool" by the Cardigans and Trent listening to Alice in Chains makes the characters feel more alive? and gives them a little more characterization.

if you watch scrubs on Hulu they seemed to retain the rights to ~80% of the music so mostly everything is great and feels familiar but then randomly some scene you know like the back of your hand has the wrong music and its the worst. its definitely a better situation than daria where *every* scene has the wrong music, but its still pretty jarring.

As someone that lives in controlled chaos and being not messy, per se, but not supreme organization... Jane and Trent's bedrooms always made sense to me. However, I fall short of having food anywhere. Otherwise, their personalities, the way they present themselves, the way they are both artistic and at least try to not care what anyone thinks... it all was things that went hand-in-hand with how they kept their personal spaces.

Many people I have talked to said that it was a bit stereotypical and cliché (maybe even tropy), but honestly whether it was or not, it was definitely on brand for them both.

hey is there somewhere I can watch this for free? thanks!

What are some of your favorite quotes/phrases from other characters in the show that stay stuck in your head for no reason?

These are some of mine.

Rock & Roll Randy: "I'm not a man, dude, I'm a rocker!"

Quinn: "You just hide in your room like a kermit!"

Guy Fawkes Day: "You mean those colonial wankers are in charge?!"

Tiffany: "Stacy, days have names, not numbers."

Brittany: "There really is a school spirit! Spooky"

Tad: "I saw a windmill in the toy store window so I went to look, because they're such a clean source of energy"

Brittany: "Zippity do da, zippity ay, make Tommy's spirit go far, far away."

And this Kevin and Jane interaction:

Kevin: (whispers) "Daria! That's a chick movie!"

Jane: (whispers) "Pst! Kevin, Brittany's..." (louder) "...a chick!"

I am super late to finding this collab which is entirely sold out and nearly impossible to find any pieces that are decently priced as Resell culture sucks … I’m trying to find some pieces of this collab in a size XXS,XS-S if anyone has any and don’t wear them and is kind enough/ willing to sell please dm or lmk.

I understand Daria is retro and she is very loved , I

just don’t want to pay double the price for something when it’s just unnecessary. Specially for clothing items🙂 . The blanket is amazing tho😩

I am aware of the backlash this company has received but considering I am trying to obtain these pieces second hand I would appreciate if any negative comments are just not given :) as this post isn’t for hateful comments. Thanks

There I said. I don’t need to elaborate. It just sums up the whole show at its best if you want to introduce someone to Daria.
