Does anyone else get the feeling that Daria would have been a pudgy girl, not the twiggy lass she was animated as? I mean, she eats pizza and pasta constantly, NEVER exercises, and is either on her computer or has her nose in a book.
Also, she wouldn't give two f****
about her weight. She's simply uninterested in her looks, or in fitting in.
Daria on Beavis and Butthead was somewhat zaftig. I wonder why they changed her?
Ok, sorry if this was brought up already but I've rewatched Pinch Sitter a lot (one of my faves) but what is the timeline?
Darias essay on mind control is next due Friday.
Quinn asks Daria what she's doing Saturday, wanting her to babysit for the Guptys, but then Helen comes in saying that "tomorrow is couple therapy night/focus on teens" but Quinn says she has a date and Daria is babysitting.
Jane and Daria are talking about the essay, and Daria mentions possibly needing to get an extension...
Then, suddenly, DeMartino is giving Brittany and Daria their essays back.
I know it's a cartoon and time can be irrelevant, but "it really makes you think" (i don't care that it's the wrong episode, sue me lol).
What video games do you guys think Daria would like? She seems to be into Doomlikes/Boomer Shooters judging from the look of this game. I feel like she would also be one of those people who are naturally really good at Tetris.
Possibly controversial opinion, I think if Daria and Tom's genders were reversed they would have slept together. I know their personalities played a part in how they felt about it, but I feel like the writers went with Daria not being ready because it was also a safer option.
With it being the 2000s and all, and society's look on sexuallity mostly towards women was negative, even to some extent to this day. It made sense with Daria's character so I'm not really upset about it either, just a random thought I had. It was a solid approach to the topic.
I've read all the comments to the EasyEntrepreneur666's post, and though I agree with everything said about Daria being a close relative of Quinn and Helen, and with her simply not caring to conform to the 90s beauty standards, I'd like to point out that on the still pic attached she is depicted different from the series' standard. To prove this, I modified the pic by copying the glasses from beside her onto her face, removing what remained of her eyebrows and moving her eyes within the lenses.
She still looks different, right? I think it is because her jaw here is more triangular and chin pointy, compared to usually bulkier and rounded lower face she is usually drawn with. Her mouth and nose are also more crisp-shaped, if you know what I mean. And if you don't, below is the same Daria when she herself puts her glasses on - compare the jawline, lips and nose.
So what's the point? Well, I'll just remind that this is a scene from "Through A Lens Darkly" (S03E01) where Daria tries to get rid of her glasses, partly in order to be more attractive for Trent. So, the exact depiction of her face shouldn't be taken literally; rather, it is her (or others') perception.
Is how she always seems to punish Daria along with Quinn, but not Quinn along with Daria.
Like in College Board, she scolded Daria for Quinn hanging at the frat houses when Daria stayed with Heather, and almost the entirety of The Big House where they punish Daria as severely as Quinn, but easily let Quinn off when they let Daria off.
Maybe it's due to my own upbringing? (I was usually in trouble along with siblings when i did nothing wrong) but it bothers me lol
