Daria, the animated apathetic antihero is finally coming to DVDIf the phrase “You’re standing on my neck” means anything to you, I’m about to make your day, week and quite possibly year. Everyone’s favorite green-blazered teenage misanthrope is finally coming to DVD. The animated MTV series Daria is set to be released in 2010.
All you misery chicks out there, that unfamiliar emotion you’re feeling right now is pure, unadulterated joy. You might even feel like squealing and jumping up and down, this is normal — just don’t let anyone see you.
MTV has quietly announced the planned release of the series, which originally ran 1997-2002, in a single-screen promo that ran in front of the new DVD set for fellow former MTV series The State. No word yet on any particulars, or when in 2010 we can expect to hear that familiar dead-pan again.
Since it went off the air seven years ago, it’s gotten harder and harder to get your Daria fix. The N played reruns for a few years. MTV also released DVDs of the two Daria movies: Is It Fall Yet? And Is it College Yet? But these days it’s even hard to track down clips. About the best I could do was this promo, complete with foreign subtitles. How I’ve missed Daria and Jane. They were animated antiheroes for the smart, sarcastic outsider in all of us. I don’t know about you, but I’m already clearing a space for Daria next to my other gone-but-not-forgotten box sets like <My So-Called Life and Wonderfalls. Is it 2010 yet?

This is awesome news for me. Loved Daria and have had the hardest time finding anything related to her except for fanfiction (which was good and all, but...)
Anyone know why there was a such a stagnation in supply when it seemed the demand was so high?

The ending credits of the last episode which was supposed to show what they all actually went on to do afterwards. I think thats the bisexual girl from IIFY? at 27secs? or is that one of the college girls?
Both of them..
How did I almost forget about this show?!
I remember watching Daria on YTV (there was no MTV in Canada back then) and adoring the show, especially the pop culture references, the ending credits, the clever banter from Daria and Jane. Didn't realize how much I missed this show.
oh yea
LOL
EUPHORIA
It's been a Sick Sad World without Daria in it.
I cannot be more excited! Next thing to bring back will need to be Undressed, and my life will be complete.
Ohhhhhhh I loved
I LOVED Undressed
I love love LOVED Undressed! It amazes me how few people actually know that show, but I think I'll die when they finally release it on DVD.
And I think about everyone on this thread just figured out what to get their girlfriend for a "whoops I screwed up" gift. I know it'll be something I'll have to get mine. Because I worshipped Daria...

I loved Undressed too. I
MTV messed up....
...when they stopped showing good shit like Daria and Undressed. It shouldn't even be called MTV anymore, IMO.
