Will Daira make another comeback to MTV?


She should I would love to see another Daira season again, I mean she cameback before she should do it again.

I don't think anybody knows for sure. There has been talk about rebooting the series, but that's been going on for more than a year, now. (google Daria reboot)

O.K. I'll try that see then thanks I sure hope that comes out soon

I doubt it will ever happen but it really should have, instead of Beavis & Butt-head probably. I mean the new season of B&B was fantastic, but a retooled Daria would have been a lot more relevant and probably could have been more popular. I mean the "adult" cartoons these days are all full of social satire and B&B is a one trick pony in that regard.

I see reruns being the only thing to happen. They wouldn't be able to do much if they brought the show back. They could follow Daria and Jane in college or Quinn, but I don't see it lasting long and with the Fashion Club being nonexistent, we wouldn't see much happen.

I'm fine with the movies, and if they ever did a series it would more than likely be a mini one that catches up with the characters and really nothing more.

If Beavis and butthead can, Daria should. I may have been a kid when Daria was popular but it's still far better than anything on now on mtv

The "Beavis and Butt-Head" spinoff would be more timely than "Beavis
and Butt-Head" itself.

I'd die for a new series, but failing that, I think a special of some kind would be amazing.

Like, how about a movie surrounding their high school's ten year reunion? That's a solid premise and you could have a lot of fun with it.

Part of me would love to see it, but another part of me doesn't want any part of it. I feel like they went out on a respectable note and there's no reason to drag the show out again to appease the fanbase or make a quick buck for MTV. Daria was very much a thing of the '90s and should stay that way.

reply

I'm on the fence too. The whole 90s-ness is a huge part of the show's charm but at the same time, think how much teen/youth culture has changed since "Daria" ended. There are so many stories they could tell through a reboot, which I assume would be the case if it ever did come back.

I too think it closed with a right note. It has that 90s early 00s feel about it which is teenage nostaliga for me. I don't know what they can do with it now days. The show is timeless no matter what generation of teens many would understand it.

Aside from some of the music, some of the clothing styles, a few of the cultural references and advances in technology (touch screen phones, Ipods/pads/tablets, social networking), the show has aged pretty well and there's still plenty today's youth could relate to. If anything, how much MTV has changed in general would be the hurdle for something like Daria to ever appear on the network again.

The most I wouldn't mind seeing, which was already mentioned somewhere on here, is a High School reunion movie show what happened to everyone after the series ended. Yeah it's a cliche and very unlikely to happen, but it's really the only way the show could make some kind of comeback.

MTV in Australia currently plays episodes of Daria. Just thought I let you know :)
