so:

- State on DVD this month
- Dario on DVD next year
- "MTV2 Legit" = one hour a week of Beavis & Butthead, the Max, Aeon Flux, the State, and old MTV bumpers

all I need to do is take a vow of celibacy and start a band, and I can officially regress to exactly what I did with my spare time in high school

I did too, but it's sort of unsatisfying -- it's mostly Beavis & Butthead w/o the videos, which isn't that good; the Max and Aeon Flux stuff is cut up into tiny out-of-context bits that are just like general reminders of what they were like; and my enjoyment of 90s MTV programming does not extend to needing to have Coolio videos on my DVR

Yes, it was pretty disappointing -- it would be better if they expanded it, and included full episodes of B&B and Liquid Television. It's not like there's a lot of people flocking to MTV2 on Friday nights.

ten months pass...

So has anybody else got the Daria DVD set? The whole music issue hasn't turned out so bad - the replacement soundtrack captures the feel of the original, though in a couple of cases it jars (like in the "Everybody Hurts" video reference).

The extras are fun, but a bit scanty; there's barely anything to the cast interviews.

But it's great to have the entire series on top-quality DVD.
