Daria: The Movie: Is it Fall Yet? (2001)

TV. Daria is a female Dobie Gillis for the 1990s -- smart, self-aware, and acerbically funny as heck. You'd swear Will Farrell was the voice for her father but all the voice talent is awesome -- I could listen to any episode repeatedly to catch every nuance every character, esp. the Fashion Club airheads. (For those who don't "get" satire, the voices of the high school football player and his cheerleader girlfriend are supposed to be grating and insipid.) As an added bonus, every episode includes, with the closing credits, a cavalcade of characters masquerading in a panoply of creative costumes and time periods. 5 stars.
