I am uncertain if this is considered a girl show or not. I loved it and I know at least two other guys who loved it too, so I'm just going to roll with it.

A lot of people don't know this, but this show was a spin-off from Beavis and Butt-head. Daria was a recurring character on that show and then she got her own! Thank god for that too, because the sophistication of humour that this show brings is unmatched by others. Like Recess before this, Daria taught me how to deal with incompetent, moronic people in the real world, as well as condescending adults.

College Humor recently released a fake trailer for a live-action movie based on this television show, and I'm here to tell you that it's the most accurate, most convincing fake trailer I have ever seen. If you can find someone better than Aubrey Plaza to play Daria, then be my guest and let me know down in the comments below.
