Note: These videos are in NTSC format. Most non-US countries use
PAL. If you live outside the US you probably need to buy somewhere
other than MTV. Check here

The Daria Video
Yes, the first three episodes have been released! For $9.99
at Best Buy, Katherine (of alt.lawndale.com) was able to get
the tape, which includes a black-and-white pilot that's never
been broadcast.
This tape is available on-line from Amazon.com.
It is also available from The Science-Fiction Book Club. MTV
also claims "wherever videos are sold" but I have yet to find
one anywhere videos are sold.
It contains:
Esteemsters
The Invitation
College
Bored
Sealed
with a Kick
See my Rambling
of 1-31-98 for my opinion of this tape.
For those who were disappointed with the music of this tape,
MTV fired the composer who worked on it, so the music done
on the second might be an improvement.

Daria Disenfranchised
The second three episodes are available. This tape is available
on-line from Amazon.com.
MTV also claims "wherever videos are sold" but I have yet
to find one anywhere videos are sold.
It contains:
Cafe Disaffecto
Malled
This Year's
Model
I haven't purchased this video yet, so I can't comment on
the music quality. Unless someone gives me some good news,
I won't be buying.

These two videos are also availabe as a two-tape
set (Daria Double Feature) from Amazon.com |

Is It Fall Yet?
This used to be available on VHS.
Runtime is listed as 1 hour, 15 minutes, and it appears to
be the full-length version MTV only aired once.
The DVD also comes with the "Freakin' Friends" video,
as well as two episodes "Fire!" and "Dye! Dye!
My Darling!"

Is It College Yet?
This used to be available on VHS.
Runtime is listed as 66 minutes, and it has been confirmed
that this is the cut version, not the original version which
aired only once.
This DVD also comes with two episodes, "Boxing Daria"
and, for no apparent reason, "Lucky Strike".
Since this is the cut version, rather than the full version,
I will not be buying. There will be no review of it from me
for that reason. I also cannot encourage anyone to buy this
product.
