Guaranteed to be of interest to several people on my flist: a complete box set of Daria will be out on DVD on May 11. (Sadly, it sounds like it might be Region 1 only for now, but that's what region-free DVD players are for.)

Yes. Yes, I had noticed that.

A person on Youtube had posted most of the series, organized by season and in 2-3 chunks per episode. (Weirdly reversed, for some reason.) Viacom noticed and seems to have gotten clever about the removals. They don't seem to have challenged the account as a whole, which they could easily have done. Most of the first parts have been left alone, many of the second parts, and even the very occasional full episode. But for the most part, they've had him take down parts 2-3 of an episode, leaving part 1 as a teaser. Very clever, indeed.

I wonder if this is one of those cases where Viacom actually uploaded the content themselves?
