It's always great to remember a time when MTV wasn't a terrible, endless cycle of pregnant teen reality shows, drunkorexia docs, cut-off music videos by whatever bands the kids are listening to these days, and energy drink commercials. Everything's so flashy now! So what better way to revisit the simpler times of the 1990s than through Daria, who would totally hate 2013 MTV.
