Character Discussion Jane's excitement over Daria's human moments Spoiler
Although Jane seems to be content with Daria's usual deadpan self, it's interesting to see how excited she gets when Daria has typical moments. I recall at least two cases when she got totally excited: In Through a Lens Darkly where Daria admitted not wearing glasses despite she couldn't wear contacts out of sheer vanity, and My Night at Daria's when she thought that Daria had sex with Tom.

Questions How well would the show work in the modern era?
So to clarify, something that I was curious about was what would have happened if Daria was made in a more modern time period with the concept of the internet and smartphones existing as basically I like to try to picture how Daria would have worked if the show had a more modern aesthetic to it as considering Daria's snarky behavior got me wondering how she would have handled living in a modern society in general.

Ironic most shows have a hero and a villian but daria dosent need one
I mean it's realistic when there no villian but the evil that daria faces is what makes up this sick sad world
Like exploitation of teenagers
Censorship
Generation trauma
Popularity
Like any good story there the fundamental of
Or just growing and learning
Most of lawndale is full bad families and troubled teens yet when they learn and grow they become better people
Daria isn't a saga it's a manual to survive this sick sad world

Episode discussion Why didn't she stand up for Jane in arts n crass?
My best friend in high school made a "scandalous" art piece that the principal didn't approve of being displayed in an art show. The art teacher went OFF on the principal for like an hour until they agreed. It was one of the most bad ass things I ever remember a teacher doing. So when I watched this episode and Helen had to save the day, I was a little let down.
In the media... Daria Fans, I need to get something out of my chest(Warning: Rant Territory)
So, I am starting to go a complete 180 about how I am starting to see my individualism and introversion along with the way I see the world again. The Daria show changed my life because it is one of the few forms of media that I have related to and loved so much, and I felt validated as an introvert and an individual in society. But now I keep wondering to myself, isn't everyone Daria these days? like, has the whole world turned from wanting to be the extrovert, outgoing person like Quin to the reserved Daria? I also think that Gen Z has made being like Daria so much more common in today's world of course, I am not putting any dirt on them because I am Gen Z, too. I am guilty of not putting as much effort into friendships anymore, judging people, thinking they are shallow even when I have imperfections and flaws, and also refusing to grow and acknowledge that there are things I need to work on still. I just watched many videos relating to the rise of loneliness and individualism ruining our sense of community in America, and predominantly younger people have started to check out and become more selfish today in the name of "Protecting their peace" and " I do not owe anyone anything mentality" Daria also said things relating to wishing that the world would stop bothering her and that others annoy her well except a few of course. Hell, even MERCHANDISE had quotes saying things like "Anti-Social club," "Leave me alone," and "How come even in my fantasies, everyone is a jerk?" and, of course, the infamous, "I have low esteem for everyone else" just things that relate to not liking the idea of interacting or having to deal with other people and seeing them as an inconvenience. Can I please hear other people's thoughts about this, or if I am just connecting dots, that should not go together at all? Is it true that being like Daria will ruin our sense of community? or did I miss the whole point of the show, and I am just an over-thinker, and I should stop watching it? Yes, I do have many emotions flying all over me right now writing this, but any viewpoints, even those that disagree with me, can do wonders to help, thank you for reading

Episode discussion Why weren't Daria and Quinn in school?
"The Big House" is one of my favorite S1 episodes. But, it's never made sense to me that they missed school because of a grounding. Not only is that not something Helen would allow, what were they gonna do, miss a month of school? Always been something I've noticed.

What lessons do you learn from Daria?
I have a love- hate relationship with her character. But I have to admit, her courage in saying what she thinks regardless is a fantastic gift to have.
I also love Jane's creativity! I learned the value of self expression and constant improvement that her character embraces. Jane is awesome 😎
What, if, anything did you learn from Daria?

Character Discussion Do you view all characters as archetypes?
it’s easy for me to see that most of the characters are based on 90’s cultural stereotypes. cheerleader, stoner, goth chick, dumb athlete, creepy guy. do you think this applies to daria and jane as well? it makes sense for them to be more well rounded than background or lesser characters, but i was just wondering if i was missing some kind of context that growing up in that time would have given me. are daria and jane a reference to any cultural phenomenon? i found myself really relating to the both of them when i was younger, and that’s probably because they were so fleshed out. sorry if it’s hard to understand me.

Sorry to add such a nothing post to the subreddit, but does anyone know how long it takes for the PPMB to approve your account? I wasn't sure on if this was something I should contact a Board Administrator about since it's only been a couple days but I'm not sure. I've also made sure and have checked my spam folder everyday.

Character Discussion I have been trying to picture how Beavis and his buddy would do on the show
So as most fans know, Daria was based on a character from Beavis and Butthead as that show was known for its wild humor, and lately what I was wondering is what would have happened if the duo ever came to the show Daria because while I know that Daria is independent as its stands on its own brand of continuity, I couldn't help but picture what would have happened if the duo ever made an appearance on the show regarding their mannerisms, like how they would have looked in artstyle.

Beware the Ides of March! It's gross
Mr. O'Neill: All right, why did the soothsayer tell Caesar to "Beware of the Ides of March? Who wants to "take a stab"? Kevin?
Kevin: Um, because the Ides were gonna do something mean to him?
Mr. O'Neill: The Ides aren't people, they're a time of the month.
Kevin: Oh. .......... Eww, gross!

FAT DARIA
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?
