They're back!

I read that in a bookshop once (I was bored and it annoyed the hell out of ben) and they didn't even condense it. At the end of the volume nothing really happened (surprise surprise), and they were just going to the meadow for the big sparkly reveal.

What's worse is that there is a graphic novel biography of SMeyer. I think it was one of those wacky animated-y ones. Pure disgusting shit.

Nodaisho:
I never watched Beavis and Butthead (before my time). I'm not sure how a new version of it (or Daria) would work. As I understand it, B+B was very much a product of its time. Daria definitely was. I enjoyed Daria, because I was old enough to remember the pop culture of that time, even if it was 10 years ago. But I don't see how it would work to make a new series.

Kugai, why would you think it's a good idea for it to be an anime? All you've said is "why not?" Give us a why.

Kugai:
Basically, Daria was one of the few Animated Series of that era that I really had an interest in.   I got bored with The Simpsons after about the third season.  After all, in the end The Simpsons was a 'One Trick Pony' of a cartoon, and after you've heard Homer go "Doh!" for the umpteenth time, it gets real old real fast.

I guess I have a soft spot for Daria because of it.  I never really was a fan of Bevis and Butthead, but Daria was a different kettle of fish.

Daria is, I think a workable option moved to an Anime Format and perhaps, if it came to it, updated to today.  Very few Animated Series from that era could be brought into our present era, and the two morons are, in my opinion, unworkable in todays era.  After all, haven't we got enough cartoon/animated/LIVING morons on TV at the moment??   :-D

This is just my personal opinion, I know there will be some out there who won't and don't share it, but as far as I'm concerned, of the two I'd rather see the cynic and her friends back than those two morons.

Why Anime Format?  Why not??!  Admittedly it's not everyones cup of tea, but if you are going to bring it back in style, why not go the whole hog and update it to Anime Style?  Hell, if you're going to update the PPG or Kim Possible into that style, why not bring back another of the best in that style.

That's not a valid reason for making it into an anime. What could changing the format into anime-style bring to the show to improve it, compared to just restarting it in the original style or changing it to make it a live action show?

Kugai:
Didn't the Brits try a Live Action Daria ?
