My Wishlist Wishes Coming True!

So, in January I published a post called "My Wishlist for 2009." In it, I asked for Zack Snyder's Watchmen to be released on time, meaning on March 6 as planned. Watchmen came out on March 6. I also asked for Fox to not cancel Joss Whedon's new show, Dollhouse. Dollhouse returns for its second season on September 18. And now it looks as though my wish for MTV's amazingly brilliant animated series Daria to finally be released on DVD is coming true, as well.

As reported by TV Shows on DVD, Marty Day from website Blast-o-rama received an advance copy of the DVD set for The State and the first thing that popped up was an ad (pictured above) announcing the release of Daria on DVD in 2010.

Honestly, this has been such a long time coming a la My So-Called Life that I wouldn't be able to believe this story, despite my full faith in TV Shows on DVD, if it weren't for the screencap. I feel like this is a victory for 90s kids everywhere...

BECAUSE IT IS!!! LET'S CELEBRATE:



UPDATE 5:34am 6 July 2009:

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! AMAZON HAS POSTED A RELEASE DATE FOR ALLY MCBEAL THE COMPLETE SERIES!!! THIS IS FREAKY, BUT IN THE BEST DAMN POSSIBLE WAY EVER!!! I can't breathe. I am too excited to breathe. That's not good is it?! Oh, man, I cannot believe this!!!

I am seriously so elated by this news. I cannot breathe. Okay, well, the complete series is currently listed at $129.99 and is scheduled for release on October 6, 2009! I've just completed preordering my set. It appears that 20th Century Fox is also releasing the seasons as individual sets, which is weird but I won't question it because I just want it all at once. I cannot believe that this news is coming so soon after hearing about Daria. I feel like the PCPTBs have been out there listening and that it's all been worth it. This is so intense.
