==Dream Worlds in Canon ''Daria''==
''[[Daria (TV series)Daria]]'' includes numerous examples of dream worlds, most of them short-lived and incidental. Brief, anxiety-provoking dreams appear in several ''Daria'' episodes, such as "[[Monster]]," "[[Ill]]," and "[[Of Human Bonding]]"; they resolve nothing except to reflect a character's inner worries.
On a larger scale, most of the ''Daria'' episode "[[Murder, She Snored]]" takes place in one of Daria's dreams, as does nearly all the content of the computer game, ''[[Daria's Inferno]].'' Each involves Daria in a quest, to either solve a murder (in the former case) or to escape from Hell (in the latter). "[[Depth Takes a Holiday]]" was certainly dreamlike in nature, with its improbable cast, settings, and happenings, but it was treated as "real" to the end.
