My Advice: Rent it until MTV releases something better
Daria is something of an oddity on MTV. Instead of following the painful and probably illegal antics of people whose mental facilities are questionable (Jackass; The Osbournes) or titillating their viewer with attractive young people committing acts that come as close to making the Beast with Two Backs as their lawyers will allow (Undressed; any programming during Spring Break), this animated series was actually smart. It followed the adventures of Daria Morgendorffer, a girl who is unfortunately intelligent enough to realize the absurdity of high school, popular culture, and life in general. Daria: Is It College Yet? covers the end of her high school career and her worries about getting into her first choice college, her relationship with her boyfriend, and looking back at her high school years with false fond nostalgia.

My Advice: Rent It.
OK, let me start out and say I'm a huge Discworld fan. I've read all the books many times over and I have all the British editions because the cover art is lively and crowded and the American versions are minimalist crap. So when Widge said he had two Discworld animated stories, Soul Music and Wyrd Sisters, for review, I think my exact response was,"GIMME GIMME GIMME!"
