Taking Sides: Beavis and Butthead vs Daria

http://www.mtv.com/onair/daria/flipbook/altarego/images/flip8.gif

Daria, so so obv.

Not that I've ever seen B & B...

Note to Nabisco: You're thinking of Tiffany Blum-Deckler, if I recall the name correctly(Accesories Officer of the Fashion Club).

New thread idea: is it possible to be TOO into a cartoon series?

Consider many a Sailor Moon fan.

Tom: all the other characters have to be amusingly irritating in order to justify Daria's misanthropy.

Tim: yes, Tiffany with the slow-talking, sporty little Stacy for Daria Character I'd Be in Love With Were I in Love with any Daria Characters.

*weeps*

I took one of those internet tests and apparently, I *AM* Trent. Nothing interferes with my bass-playing or my nap schedule.

I still say Beavis and Butthead.

Consider many a Sailor Moon fan

Great example - Tim B and I know one well, and this is one of many very bad signs about him.

Hi, we're the Vines.

for the record, i say daria.

THANKYOU RICKY T!!

I say both shows are funny in different ways.

Daria should listen to more Carter.

(except nabisco and some other people)

My favorite mock critical phrase is "minimalist yet expansive"

By miles and miles, one of the funniest ever moments on TV was when they were going on the military camp trip and one of them asks the psycho bulging eye teacher "will we have a buddy system", and he goes "I had a buddy ONCE, then I got home and he'd MARRIED MY MOTHER!!!!!!" totally fucking freaking. It was classic.

Uh, sure I do! It isn't that she displays no emotion - it's there but done in a subtle way b/c masked most of the time. I thought it was pretty good at getting the way people are oblivious & think nothing bothers her.

La la LA la lahhh

And yet there's still no dvd of The Maxx. arghl

I've been watching Beavis & Butthead episodes gleaned from the net, complete with all of the videos, and I've been surprised by how hilarious they are. I think I remember my opinion veering between indifference and chagrin when the show was originally on. As a presentation of (as latebloomer so perfectly stated) 'low-key nihilism', it's akin to The Soup minus the witty banter, allowing us the option of laughing or weeping as the world goes down the terlet.

xx-post oh cool. all the episodes rebroadcast on the n were pretty heavily edited right?

OMFG you guys...

I'm guessing you are all lost exploring Daria 420 in the multi-verse. I mean this astounds me, this is like crazier than the interlinking Star Trek multi-verses.

what the fuck

gettin blitzed on Sparks and 312 exploring Daria 420 in the multi-verse

ok seriously wishing i hadn't even clicked on that Buffett thread

LOL ;)

it was a misguided attempt to make a point, but it came from a good place i swear

u know who the real enemies are, daria fan fiction writers

daria-911 changed everything

The universe created by Angelinhel as an entry in the PPMB thread IRON CHEF: Sic Transit Gloria Mundi. The universe details a world ravaged by a virus known as "The Sickness" which was released during the events of the movie, Beavis and Butt-Head Do America. The universe gets its designation because there were three bullets left in the gun mentioned in the beginning of the story.

Daria-217: The universe of "Misnomer," by Erin Mills. An alternate reality wherein the Lane family is slaughtered by a red cloaked, reality jumping Daria Morgendorffer who goes by the name Judith. The story was published on fanfiction.net on 2/17/06.

wtf

Daria-8: The universe of Smileyfax's Night of the Living Furniture. In the fic, the family of Tom Sloane pays the Morgendorffer family an eight-figure sum of money as compensation for his insane acts of brutality upon them.

What did he do? I am afraid to read the fanfic to find out what. It it hard to imagine Tom as a homicidal maniac.

What is wrong with these people, seriously.

s/m rated nc-17 NSFW x-post

The universe of Ostragoth's "Behind Enemy Lines." While aboard The Habitat, Franklin Davers finds out that the Slaver Mantoids start using human females designated for their breeding program to birth children at age fifteen.

whos going to look for daria slash

i'm at work

thank you, internet, for making me hate Daria

Daria-309: A parallel universe created by Ranger Thorne that closely resembles D-320; in this reality, Robert Nelson and Jane Lane are Ringbearers, while Daria Morgendorffer has become a member of the Green Lantern Corps.

Of course.

I will never hate Daria, but I will continue to hate crazy internet people.

This is a steaming pile of shit (surprise surprise).

You looked it up? You have a stronger stomach and more courage than I ever will.

"What impasse?" Jane said. She felt lightheaded. No doubt it was due to the blood loss. Jane's legs felt drenched in it. SHe was trying to keep her anger up so that she didn't have to think about it and possibly throw up.

I hate it when my legs are drenched in blood loss.

It’s a strong likelihood the show’s pop soundtrack won’t make it to the DVDs – the very few releases so far have either replaced it with generic background music or nothing at all. It probably won’t matter to most, but I watched the series a lot on original broadcast and will always associate certain scenes with the music – Monaco’s “What Do You Want from Me” playing when Daria dressed up as Quinn, for example.

This really ruined the 21 Jump Street dvd, Johnny Depp or no.

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

haha "dario"

I even tivo'ed mtv2 legit, I feel so pathetic.

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

they need to bring back Oddville

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.

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.
