Triste Monde Tragique to Return
From Father Martin Sylvester at The Daria News Archive:
DARIA will return to the schedules of Australian national broadcaster ABC some time in October.
[Thanks to Deref for kindly phoning ABC for me to confirm this news]
From Kara Wild at The DVDaria Blog :
I spoke to my MTV source, who told me that the department has no plans to put out Daria yet. However, he said that the new direct response rep has settled in and the new MTV label for DVDs is doing really well. They have high hopes that the upcoming Beavis and Butt-head release will keep up the momentum. My personal feeling is that if it does do well, it could pave the way for Daria's release, whereas if it doesn't, Daria could be shelved. As it so happens, how Daria came into being will be mentioned in a featurette on the B&B DVD set.
My source said that MTV Home Video is currently trying to figure out its 2006 schedule and that I should contact him again in November. So until November, we'll just have to hope.
Ms. Wild will be on vacation until September 18, 2005. Steven Galloway will manage the Paperpusher Message Board until she returns.
Daria fan Mr. Orange contacted the site owner of Triste Monde Tragique, which had some problems with its web hosting. The site should be back up soon.
