TV for Tweens - TiVo found Daria re-runs for me the other day. (It assumed I'd like it because I watch The Simpsons and South Park, and TiVo seems to think all cartoons are created equal.) As it happens, I always loved Daria back when it first spun off from MTV's Beavis & Butthead. Now the show is on The Noggin channel. Like it's Viacom stablemate "Nick at Night," the mostly educational, non-commercial, pre-teen-focused Noggin is pitched to a somewhat more grown-up audience (the so-called "tweens") in the evening, when it becomes "The N." The network has carried Daria since Summer 2002. Where have I been? Thanks TiVo!
