The case for "needing" revivals of any show is its own argument, but Daria raises something in particular. There were many things I realized about it in my rewatch that I didn’t catch as a kid. Jodie was pretty, popular, and consistently well-rounded, unlike the majority of the air-headed popular squad. Jodie: as opposed to you, who has somehow managed to avoid the sun entirely. I’m looking forward to when the character designs come out. As one fan tweeted, “Daria and Jodie were more like occasional allies and acquaintances to each other than good friends so tbh a spinoff featuring the two of them feels like a heavy-handed way of making a ‘Daria’ reboot less white.” What would the original Jodie Landon think of that? Though the series was called Daria, and not Jodie, it allowed for a black female character to have a place on the series that wasn't just a supportive caricature. In the first couple of seasons, most Daria fans were totally ‘shipping Daria and Trent, Jane’s burnt-out, older brother. Still more fans believe Daria was a show of its time and place. Terms under which this service is provided to you. It’s safe to say that the two siblings were polar opposites of each other. You know what, Daria can have two friends. The satirical comedy about bookworm Daria Morgendorffer trying to make her way through the social and intellectual challenges of high school was, as Oprah calls it, “my truth.” Daria, the anti-social nerd in combat boots, and her artistic, sadistic best friend Jane Lane were the quintessential ’90s outcasts. We really hope it includes some of the magic from the OG series. —The Mary Sue has a strict comment policy that forbids, but is not limited to, personal insults toward anyone, hate speech, and trolling.—, Have a tip we should know? The animated adult sitcom on MTV? I suppose it is the trend of the times to be overly inclusive, and that’s fine. Going under the tentative title Daria and Jodie, this comeback series will focus on the lives of an adult Daria and her former Lawndale High classmate, Jodie Landon. The concept no longer feels as original or as fresh. Today, it's almost its own genre of comedy. It’s been a pretty sad 16 years for angsty, cartoon-loving 90s babies. Comment Report abuse. I went back and rewatched all five seasons a year or so ago, it holds up pretty well. Jane, like Daria, is presumably white. Though she can also be sarcastic, she truly does care about Daria and does treasure their friendship. I know when I was in high school, the thought of being transgender was waaaaaaaaaay far from my mind. MTV Studios announced their plans to reboot Daria with 'Daria and Jodie.' Most importantly, are the reboot’s writers willing to let Daria be as much of an iconoclast today as she was in the ’90s?

Now We Know Why Trump Decided to Air the Leslie Stahl Interview Before '60 Minutes', FLASHBACK: Beau Biden Agreed to Lenient Plea Deal for DuPont Heir Who Raped 3-Year-Old — No Prison Time. Now MTV has ordered Daria & Jodie, a reboot that will explore where life has taken the friends. We live in the era of anti-bullying legislation, trigger warnings and woke folk. The reboot of "Daria" will be called "Daria & Jodie," and follow Daria and her friend, Jodie Landon.
