Daria: Difference between revisions

Line 130:

* [[The Cutie]]: Can you say "Fashion Club"?. Also mildly subverted by Daria in "Quinn The Brain", in which Daria is shown to actually be rather attractive when she wants to be.

* [[Darker and Edgier]]: Considering [[Beavis and Butthead|what it was spun off from.]]

* [[A Day At the Bizarro]]: There are fans who refuse to consider "Depth Takes A Holiday" as a canon episode. You should see how the fans treat that episode in [[Fanfic]]... "Daria!" may also count.

** "Murder, She Snored" and "The Lawndale File" also count as borderline examples, though one is [[All Just a Dream]] and the other is just the town's collective idiocy biting it in the back door.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Daria and Jane first and foremost, obviously, but also Tom, Trent, Jodie, and Mack to somewhat lesser extents. And then Helen has her moments, and obviously Aunt Amy... yeah, the series made the most of this one.

Line 155:

== E-H ==

* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: Apparently, Jane's older brother Wind wanted to change his to "Ronald" when he was a child (possibly because it doubles as a bit of a [[Gender Blender Name]]). He seems to be over it by adulthood.

* [[Empty Fridge Empty Life]]: The Lanes' refrigerator is a magnificent example.

* [[Empty Fridge, Empty Life]]: The Lanes' refrigerator is a magnificent example.

* [[Epic Fail]]: {{spoiler|1=Mr. DeMartino's plan to make Mr. O'Neill more assertive so he can break off his engagement to Ms. Barch would have worked -- had Ms. Barch not admit to Mr. O'Neill that she loved his new allegedly assertive side}}.

* [[Episode Title Card]]: Every episode, including the TV movies.

Line 214:

* [[Goth]]: Andrea...who may as well be ''the'' goth since she's the only one ever depicted on the show.

** There ''is'' another Goth girl who wears black lipstick, dark clothes, and has orange hair, but she's a [[Living Prop]].

*** Unless you ask the fandom, [[Fan Nickname|who call her Scarlett]] and [[OC Stand In|write numerous fanfics about her]].

*** Unless you ask the fandom, [[Fan Nickname|who call her Scarlett]] and [[OC Stand-In|write numerous fanfics about her]].

* [[Grand Finale]]: The second movie ''Is It College Yet?''

* [[Granola Girl]]: Mr. O' Neill is the male equivalent of this.

Line 413:

* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Daria and Quinn.

* [[Totally Radical]]: Val talks in ''nothing'' but these...in particular, she attaches the word "jiggy" to everything.

* [[Training ~~From~~ Hell]]: ''Arguably the point of the entire series'' -- that going through high school is hell. Lampshaded at the end of "See Jane Run" (where D & J look over what happened and admit that "they really are preparing us for the real world"), and in ''Is It College Yet?'', with Daria's speech at graduation.

:Also, Jake's childhood at the hands of his father, Mad Dog Morgandorffer and when Jake was sent to military school. Subverted in that it all arguably made Jake a weaker person.

* [[Trauma Conga Line]]: Jane's life, over the entire course of this series, is made of this trope. [[Casa Lane Parenting|Absentee parents and she has to raise herself?]] That's the beginning - and [[It Got Worse|it doesn't get better]] until Jane manages to get accepted into college - and [[Hope Spot|considering the way things have gone for her so far...]]
