That's it, I'm heard and seen enough
My I direct you to the following rant/essay by James "CINCGREEN" Bowman? Ignore his personal attacks on other Daria fans and see what he has to say on the subject of Daria on Noggin - I think it makes a lot of sense.

I think it makes very little sense. He even makes the arrogant assumption that television and animation aren't art because they aren't performed live on a stage. It's also incredibly difficult to take him seriously when he continuously talks down to his readers and treats his opinions as facts. Yes, a network does have the right to edit their programs for time and content, but they also have a responsibility to acquire appropriate programming for their network. The Noggin programming executives must have known that Daria contained material that many people would consider inappropriate for Noggin's target audience, yet they acquired the rights to it anyway. They could have bought a more appropriate, and expensive, series with the money used to edit Daria.
