![Daria: Complete Animated Series (8pc) (Full Dol) [DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41hDqqIo1ML.jpg)










desertcart.com Review Turns out that Clarissa did not explain it all, like what a sick sad world it is, how much student life sucks, and how the notion that it is great to be young is a storybook fantasy. Daria, which aired on MTV between 1997 and 2002, does not paint a rosy picture, but this so-called outcast for whom suburban life "is one smart-ass joke" gave sardonic voice to the disaffected. "I'm not miserable," Daria states, "I'm just not like them." She's not kidding. Though she's referring to the "interesting idiots" she suffers none too gladly at Lawndale High School, she could well be talking about the women normally paraded on MTV, the hedonistic spring break partiers, serial daters, spoiled sweet sixteeners, and tabloid tarts like Tila Tequila. And then there's Daria, an animated (just barely) character who after five seasons and two movies (both included in this eight-disc set) managed to survive high school with her sense of self unbowed and uncompromised. Daria came a long way, baby. Before she got her own series, she was a recurring character on Beavis and Butt-head, a brainy foil for the two heavy metal imbeciles, whose pet name for her was "Diarrhea." Daria relocated her to Lawndale and introduced her self-absorbed yuppie parents and her airhead, popularity-obsessed younger sister. It also gave her a best friend and kindred misanthropic spirit, Jane Lane. Their deadpan and sarcastic banter has lost none of its incisive edge. The broadly drawn high school stereotypes--vapid cheerleaders, fashion-plate mean girls, corruptible administrators, empty-headed jocks--seem unworthy of their contempt. But the series really hit satiric pay dirt when it addressed "profound and fundamental moral issues of life," such as one episode in which Jane joins the track team out of spite, but becomes a track star, alienating Daria, who is not above enjoying some of the perks of Jane's newfound popularity. When all reverts back to, for want of a better word, normal, Daria remarks, "The system continues, you haven't redeemed yourself, and we're ostracized anyway… Hey, they really are preparing us for the real world." Daria comes to DVD with 99 percent of the original music changed due to rights issues, regrettable, but that shouldn't be a deal breaker, especially for those making Daria's acquaintance. The special features almost compensate. They include an animatic version of the pilot episode "Sealed with a Kick," a series retrospective featuring series creator Glenn Eichler and key members of the voice cast, Daria and Jane episode intros, and a Top Ten video countdown hosted by the duo (videos not included). --Donald Liebenson Review: It has everything! - This set is amazing! I used to watch this show on TV all the time. This set has everything: All the episodes (5 seasons) and the two movies. Plus a few bonus. I'm really happy I bought this. Review: はるか昔MTVの放送でよく観てた作品です。 皮肉な口調でしゃべるクールなDariaが面白い。 やはり私には笑いは欧米式じゃないと分からないです。

I was a moderate fan of Daria when the show aired in the late 90's/early 2000's. It wasn't that I didn't like the show (I actually liked it quite a bit), just remember it being a show I'd see from time to time and remember it being decent. Funny, good writing, just simply entertaining. When I heard it was coming out on DVD I didn't have to think twice. The memories of watching the show were good ones, so I ordered it the day it came out (and ended up only having to pay 28 bucks-NEW-and this included shipping). Well I can say after having watched the first few episodes of the Daria Series Collection that the show seems to have held up well. I guess if I could knock anything it might be the video quality. Grainy lines and bland reproduction are apparent in the episodes I've viewed, but this in no way takes away from the enjoyment of watching the episodes. Maybe I'm just spoiled in today's age of Blu-Ray. I'm not going to downgrade the DVD for not having the original music. Number one, everyone knows this that would be interested in this DVD. I wouldn't be telling you anything you didn't know. Additionally, inside the case there's a small note explaining why it isn't there (costly licensing). So nobody is trying to hide anything here. Number two-It's not that big of a deal. I'm frankly shocked everyone is so concerned about the original music being present. It's not like this is Beavis and Butthead where the music played a much more regularly present central role to the plot/action of the episodes. Personally, not being a person that remembered many of the episodes, the lack of original music so far has not taken away anything from my viewing experience. Guess I'm not sure what everyone's big problem with this is? If you like the music that much, go hop on ITunes??? Maybe buy some used CDs on Amazon??? In the end, if you remember liking/watching Daria, there's no reason not to pick this up. It's affordable. All the episodes (including the movies) are there. The show has held up well. On a side note, I'm uncertain how people could have been reviewing this specific DVD collection in February of this year. It was released on May 12th (I believe) 2010. Maybe that's the most upsetting thing about this product-The Amazon Reviews. The point of a review is to review the product once you've used it, not to hype it or knock it, when the damn thing hasn't even been released. I don't care if you've seen all the episodes or not, until you use the actual product in question-DON'T REVIEW IT ON AMAZON!!!!!!!!!! It completely defeats the purpose of reviewing items.

This was certainly a worthwhile purchase. It says complete box set and it certainly is, containing all five seasons, both movies and a massive load of extras. It did not disappoint whatsoever in terms of content. The show takes characters on the outside of society (High School in particular), and makes them both funny and human, managing to relate to a substantial amount of people I know. The show has phenomenally good use of sarcasm and dead pan humor. It suits me down to the ground. If I had a complaint to make it would be in the packaging design. The discs are stuck in position with tight positions and not an easy to use button in the center. This unfortunately is very difficult to use at first, and makes you feel as if you're going to break the disc. Thankfully that didn't happen in my case. This packaging design is certainly something I hope will phase out soon. Also; there is no list of episodes on the discs, they each have a brief caption of what episodes they have, but a full list complete with titles would be a great help to anyone such as myself who hasn't been able to memorize much of the series. I realize my negative paragraph on the packaging is bigger than the positive paragraph on the content. This is because my feelings about the show can be easily summarized, whereas the foul packaging sent me on a rant. Regardless of the packaging I would highly recommend this box set to any fan of Daria, South Park, or any fan of animated comedy. 10 out of 10 for the set, 2 out of 10 for the box.

Quanto concerne le indicazioni regionali si tratta della versione americana, quindi Regione 1, potrebbe non essere leggibile con tutti i lettori DVD sul mercato, anzi quasi sicuramente pochissimi riusciranno ad utilizzarlo in un lettore dvd. Sul computer chiaramente funziona. Ottima la qualità dei disci e il modo in cui è stato strutturato il menù. 5 Stelle perchè questo è un cartone mitico,Amazon però dovrebbe mettere a posto l'informazione sbagliata riguardante la regione del DVD!

ATENCIÓN, DVD en región 1 así que si tu reproductor es región 2 no será reproducido. Asegurate antes de que sea región 0 o 1. El producto ha llegado sin problema y en perfecto estado.

Tudo perfeito. Seria ainda melhor se tivesse legendas em português.
