A semi-irregular blog of news, opinions, and random ideas about MTV's Daria and its fandom, plus anything else even vaguely Daria related
Nine years ago today, "Speedtrapped" first appeared on MTV. We've already addressed Daria's murderous impulses. What else is there to cover?My opinion only, though these sites do enjoy broad support within the fandom. Links are active if their websites were updated since September 1, 2016.
Message board links are marked active if relevant messages in a significant number have been posted there since January 1, 2013.

Quinn wearing gingham.
Ask The N. They didn't show it at all. Humorless bastards!
I think their hot button was drinking. A few shots of Jake holding a martini glass or flask made it on, but all the never-shown-on-N episodes showed much more open use of alcohol.
Thank the gods for bootlegs. ... Electronic sense AND original sense, come to think of it. {g}
Come to think of it, nary a tipple in "Boxing Daria," also banned from that benighted channel. So go figure.
That's because The N is evil. They have to be. They tear Daria to pieces, but show Degrassi?
MTV isn't much better, either, or they'd show it again sometime.
I think it's because Daria is animated and therefore supposed to be wholesome, while live-action shows can be corrupt because small children won't watch them.
Or it's something else, beats me. I don't know nothin'.
Quinn in gingham . . . yeah, that was weird.
