In the series Daria which followed Beavis and Butt-head, Daria remains bespectacled and plain.

She is an unfashionably dressed, highly intellectual, seemingly cynical and sarcastic teenage girl who is portrayed as an icon of sanity in an insane household in an equally insane upper middle class suburb.

" She had moved to a new school, having transferred from the one in Beavis and Butthead.
