I loved daria when i was younger and I recently rewatched it awhile ago and I feel like I could appreciate it even more, mostly because it did set a kind of standard, but there's also a lot of universal themes and tropes that date themselves in a pleasant way. Like, you can tell they're old and they feel nostalgic, but most of them are also still around in other fiction.

Although I also think that the latter half of Daria is what people end up finding relateable than the first. Because even though she's sarcastic and snarky, and even though the show is episodic, one of the best things about is the fact that things change. Life goes on. She changes. Some things stay the same, but she faces having to deal with living life, finding a purpose, believing in herself and making a place in the world in a really realistic and familiar way.

It's why I really appreciated the subtle shift of the later seasons into becoming something more serious as it followed the characters through high school.

Of course you aren't obligated to like it the same way I do, and eventually it will become irrelevant in another generation or so, but for now I still think she's pretty well earned a decent place in pop culture history with enough 'hit or miss' mixed in with a touch of universality to ~age gracefully for just a little while longer.
