'Daria' Is Coming Back To MTV With A New Show But I Bet She'd Hate It

By Tanya
She was the star of one of the hit cartoons of the 90s, but if she knew that, she'd probably be really unhappy about it. The cynical teen Daria, was actually a character in Beavis and Butt-Head, but people liked the character so much that she got her own show. It lasted for five seasons on MTV, and while she never really expressed much excitement in her facial expressions, those of us who were maybe feeling a little apathetic ourselves really loved her. MTVHowever, because the year is now 2018 and TV networks have completely run out of ideas, they

They no longer wanted to be associated with her and her thoughts, so they canceled the show. ABCRoseanne Barr claimed to have been joking, but even if that's true, her words were unacceptable. Even her castmates were deeply concerned with her words. Sara Gilbert, who

By Tanya
Who else spent their Saturday mornings sitting on the floor in front of their couch just because they needed to be able to be closer to the TV? Sure, our mom's said it was bad for our eyes, but for some reason it just felt like the shows got better the closer you sat. Gargoyles was one the best of the best. It was a crazy story that featured weird characters and had a bunch of mythical lore, which was basically everything us kids wanted in a cartoon. ABCEveryone loved this show so much as kids and now, after over

'Temptation Island' Is Coming Back To TV Even Though It Caused Controversy The First Time

By Tanya
Who else remembers when reality shows first started becoming popular in the early 2000s? We had Survivor, Big Brother, and American Idol, and those were all popular, but then the insane dating shows started to come out. Of course The Bachelor started, and that is wild enough in its own right, but it wasn't the only one. Networks put their contestants into increasingly wild situations to see just how much they could put them through in their search for fame. Shows like Paradise Hotel tried to match up people while keeping them secluded, others like Joe Millionaire lied to its

Pepper Ann Was Way Ahead Of Her Time And Deserves Way More Credit Than She Gets

By Tanya
As far as the "One Saturday Morning" cartoons went, there are obviously a few stand outs. Recess was always a classic, Doug was pretty much beloved by all, but for those of us who wanted our main character to be someone a little more like us, Pepper Ann was our show. Pepper Ann was definitely much too cool for 7th grade, and we all learned a lot from her show. She was a pretty realistic character, who went through realistic things that a lot of pre-teen girls go through. I mean, there was an entire episode about Pepper Ann buying
