[http://www.noggin.com Noggin] iswas a television network for small children. Though it is commonly stated that ''Daria'' was seen in reruns from July 2002 through June 2006 on this network, ''Daria'' was actually shown on a sister network for eight to 14-year olds, [http://www.the-n.com The N]. The N shared the same channel as Noggin, running from 3 pm to early morning every day until 2007. Viacom rebranded the networks as Nick Jr. and TeenNick in 2009.
 
In the beginning, when The N was looking for ways to appeal to its "tween" audience, ''Daria'' was deemed too "adult" and was therefore censored. Censorship was usually restricted to cutting out "bad" words (such as Jake's numerous "dammits" and the word "ass"), but many times The N went further and cut humorous lines with innuendo or even whole plotlines. This editing became known as '''Nogginization''', and the affected episodes were said to be '''Nogginized''' to distinguish them from the original, full-length versions. Episodes were skipped over, such as "[[My Night at Daria's]]".
