==Fantasy Episodes and Scenes==
Though ''Daria'' was a fairly realistic animated show, certain episodes raised the ire of fans because their treatment of reality was regarded as cavalier. Six episodes in particular, from the third and fourth seasons, are often assumed by sticklers for "realistic canon" to be events that never actually occurred. Some fanfic writers assume they were dreams, hallucinations brought on by a variety of ailments, or fictional works created by one of the show's characters, usually [[Daria Morgendorffer]]. (One of the episodes below actually ''was'' a dream.) A few stories, nearly always fantasies like "[[Deus Jane]]," assume most of these events occurred exactly as shown. The fact all these episodes were shown '''after''' Write Where It Hurts supports the "Daria's wrightings" explanation.
==="[[It's a Miserable Life]]"===
While a ''[[Beavis and Butt-head]]'' episode and not a ''Daria'' one, the former show is usually seen as canon for Daria's past. In this episode, the explicit existence of God, angels, and alternate universes are involved in the plot. As this is not a ''Daria'' episode and a number of ''Daria'' fans will not have seen it, it is rarely used as an example of God's existence in canon.
=== “[[Depth Takes a Holiday]]”===
