The first couple seasons of Daria were good at showing how Daria's attitude alienated everyone. After that they kind of waffled on her character development. Sometimes she was considerate, other times a goony jerk. By then all the other characters are fleshed out though. It works as a product of its time and was a pretty drat good show for a teen/early 20s demographic.

why would you believe something butthead says

the current mtv demographic doesn't like beavis and butthead they like 16andpregnant and the shows the new b and b-head were making fun of

Nah both types of shows actually appeal to the same demo-- mediocre people who want to feel superior to idiots on TV.

Yes and Beavis and Butthead too, was my point.

okay yeah i misread your previous post you probably got a point, but then making fun of stupid people also makes up a pretty big portion of all comedy

Doppelganger posted:I'm rewatching some episodes on hulu, and it seems like every time she meets a new person, she immediately goes into snarky oval office mode even if they're being perfectly polite to her. Then by the end of the episode, the character will randomly start being an rear end in a top hat, and then everyone is like "Wow Daria, you were right all along, how insightful of you." I think the show tries to get you to subtly question her behaviour as it goes on. Like at first it presents this snarky smart girl and you're supposed to go "oh, I identify with this character" and laugh at the popular kids, but then as it goes on there are more nuances with the barriers between the two groups falling away and you realize both have flaws and good qualities. Basically it starts off going "jocks vs. nerds amirite" with sympathy towards the nerds but it tries to get the audience to eventually understand that the differences are more superficial than they seem, towards the end where everyone's going off to college. IRL this is usually when you start noticing that anyway if you're not completely dense.

Kinda reminds me of my high school experience except senior year I learned it turns out everyone was like Daria. Jock, prep, stoner, nerd, it didn't matter, everyone was an insufferable duplicitous poo poo-talking rear end in a top hat, one eyeroll away from snapping their optic nerves. Turns out teens are just awful in general, at least in the nineties, who knew?

burritolingus posted:She's really an unlikable character throughout the entire series. I remember one episode where a kid dies and she's like, "So what? He was a jerk to me. One less jerk." People were supposed to sympathize with her by the end of it. That's when I realized whoever was writing Daria never got over the fact that they were unpopular in high school. Best thing you could say about the show is that it had a good soundtrack, but they've had to replace all the songs in the re-releases due to copyright issues so even that's gone. wow hm. interesting

Y'know people here joke about how goobers like Kevin Smith or Joss Whedon are uber-goons, but this thread has reaffirmed my belief that Mike Judge is the true patron saint of Goonery in the arts.
