Show generally

Revealing mistake: In every episode, the windows in both the kitchen and living room areas never reveal any scenery outside them during the day or any reflections from the inside at night.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In many episodes throughout the series, whatever is written on the blackboard behind a teacher in a classroom always changes many times in different shots. Some words or pictures appear or disappear or change shape, features, etc.

Esteemsters - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Mr. O'Neill is talking to Daria and Jane, the board behind him has a bunch of arrows in a circle with a different word written next to each arrow. When the camera changes to a further angle with all three characters in the frame, the arrows remain on the board but all the words are completely gone - then appear again once the camera is close up to the board again.

The Invitation - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: In this episode, during the party, we see Tiffani (from the fashion club) for the first time, and when she speaks (just once in the episode), her voice is extremely different than the low monotone voice she has in later episodes. Here she sounds more Americanized and has a higher-sounding voice (similar to Stacy's).

Cafe Disaffecto - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: The blackboard behind O'Neil has a face drawn on it with tears coming down on each side of the face. In some camera angles, three tears on each side are shown, and in other camera angles, only two are shown. This number of tears keeps alternating.

Too Cute - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: In the Season 1 episode "Too Cute," Quinn mentions to Sandy that Sandy picked out Quinn's outfit that she's wearing. This could not be possible as Quinn had that outfit (the same one she always wears in every episode) since BEFORE they moved to their current town and before the girls met anyone in their school they first went to in the first episode.

Arts 'n' Crass - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, the girl in Jane's painting rests her head on her hands. In her reflection, her hands are turned outward on her chin even though she is sitting there with her hands turned inward.

Monster - S2-E6

Other mistake: In one scene in this episode, the clock on the kitchen wall (behind Jake) does not have any hands.

The New Kid - S2-E7

Plot hole: In the season two episode 'The New Kid,' Daria and Jane are discussing The New Kid in gym class when a girl takes a nasty spill from a trampoline. Later, Daria and The New Kid are heard remarking about photos taken of that particular fall despite there having been no photographers present.

Fair Enough - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When the Morgandorffers are in the car on the way to the fair, the camera is on Helen and many red houses are out the window behind her; then instantly the camera is on Quinn (same side of the car behind Helen) and all you see out the window is trees (no red houses at all). Then instantly the camera is on both Quinn and Daria (in the back seats) and now the scenery behind Quinn is all red and blue houses and barely any trees. Basically, the scenery out the passenger side's not consistent.

Through a Lens Darkly - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Daria arrives at school without her glasses (her choice). When the scene changes to Mr. O'Neil's class, first shown from the back facing O'Neil and the backside of students, Daria (sitting on the left of the screen) is shown from behind and her glasses are showing on her face (as usual). When Daria is next shown talking close up in the remainder of the scene, she is without her glasses again.

Jake of Hearts - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: In the living room scene (while Quinn is playing Operation and Daria is sitting on the couch), the phone and notebook appear to swap positions throughout the scene.

Just Add Water - S3-E12

Factual error: The roulette game on the boat has some mistakes in it. First, the line of numbers 13, 14, 15 is all the opposite colours of a real roulette game. Then, when showing the game from a farther angle (where you don't see the numbers), many squares are the opposite colour of a real gameboard.

Just Add Water - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: The crescent moon throughout the episode keeps changing sides. Sometimes the crescent is facing left and other times it’s facing right.

The F Word - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When the kids in the classroom are cheering, the map of the world on the wall shows South America slanted a bit sideways, but shortly after, when the class is over and the kids start to leave, South America is now shown the proper way.

Fat Like Me - S5-E3

Factual error: When we see Tiffani and Stacy talk on the phone with Quinn (on the other end), we hear a call waiting beep from Quinn's end (but the camera still on the two girls' side) and Quinn mentions she's getting a call from Sandi. The mistake is only Quinn herself would have heard the "beep" and the other girls would have just heard Quinn's voice cut off with dead air for a second. Tiffani and Stacy should not have heard that "beep" like it was shown in the episode.

Trivia: Whenever Daria's family eats together at home, they always eat lasagna.

Suggested correction: That's usually the case but not every episode. There's an episode where they are eating Penne a la Pesto instead, and another one had pizza.

More trivia for Daria

Answer: Earlier, Quinn prods Daria to imagine having the object of her infatuation, Trent, as an actual boyfriend, and to picture her dream exactly the way it will be. Then, Daria's imagination turns her dream of being with Trent into an extremely unpleasant future, and Daria says, "I think I just got over something," which means she got over her infatuation with Trent. At the end of the episode, Trent tells Daria that it's too bad she's not older, so he could take *her* out, then he leaves. Daria then envisions a romanticized future with her perfect Trent, and in this dream Trent tells her, "Daria, you're the best thing that ever happened to me." And just like that, Daria's infatuation with Trent is back, and Daria exclaims, "Damn," in frustration.
