This was just posted to rec.arts.animation:
The relivant part of the memo is the following:
"� The closing of MTV�s Animation Studio. Relying on independent, outside animation producers better supports our animation strategy going forward. "
So, where does this leave the Daria movie?

It will come out. Unknown what the schedule will be, but it will be completed and aired.
This from someone very close to the show who wishes to remain anonymous...not Glenn Eichler, but someone else.

Question: is it going to come out on the original script, or is it going to get "improved" by some committee?

Nice to hear this. But once I see promos for the movie it'll be even nicer.

I would think that most of the work on the movie is already done, and only the final animation remains, which is probably already in the works and paid for.
Besides, it will be good if the Daria rights get transferred to a separate animation producer (hopefully one where Glenn is involved, or one that Glenn forms). The show could then be shopped out to other outlets. Roy Green, Atlanta http://www.roygreen.com NAR 12605 (http://www.nar.org) SoAR 007 (http://www.soar571.com)

I'd like to see that happen. Of course, that's because I didn't see all the episodes, and I really need to see a number from Seasons 1 & 2, plus "Prize Fighters" from Season 5. But even if I saw all the episodes, I'd still like to see them again.

What ever became of that contest at MTV.com where the winner of a trivia contest would get animated into a scene in IICY?
