Just after Quinn's suede shoes are ruined and Daria makes the "It's the Soul Train..." comment, does Sandi's dance style look familiar? It reminds me of "A Charlie Brown Christmas" where everyone is dancing in the auditorium. She looks like she'd fit right in.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was an in-joke. Animators love to do things like that. "The Simpsons" is famous for it.

Oh yes, the scene at the end of one of the Halloween episodes where they

It's not animated, but in the "If Elvis Were My Landlord" skit from "The
Kids In The Hall", Bruce and his friends are dancing to the Linus & Lucy theme
(performed in inimitable style by the incomparable Shadowy Men On A Shadowy
Planet), and it's obvious they patterned their dance moves after the characters
in "A Charlie Brown Christmas".
Actually, Sandi's dancing in "The Invitation" reminded me more of Dee Dee
from "Dexter's Laboratory". Both have that unique arm-pumping motion.MIKE (a.k.a. "Progbear")
