==Conflicting Information==
The internal consistency of the world created within ''Daria'' has at times fallen apart in minor ways. What is stated as fact in one place is contradicted in another, probably as the result of editorial or production errors.

===Sherman vs. Sheridan===
[[Tommy Sherman]] was the oafish ex-jock and [[Lawndale High]] alumnus who was accidentally killed by a special goalpost dedicated to him in "[[The Misery Chick]]." However, in ''[[The Daria Diaries]],'' the goalpost is named the Tommy ''Sheridan'' Memorial Goalpost. (Someone obviously is confusing one American Civil War Union general with another...) This renaming is generally assumed to be an error and nothing more. However,
===Cranberry Commons vs. Lawndale Mall===
Much of this issue is discussed at [[Lawndale Mall]]. Canon sources offer two different names for the indoor shopping mall in [[Lawndale]].

The assumed placement of [[Lawndale]] on the east coast, as a suburb of Baltimore or Philadelphia, was challenged by the appearance of

===Out-of-Sequence Episodes===
The episodes of ''Daria'' were not necessarily shown in chronological order. It is commonly assumed that the episodes from seasons one and two show Daria's first year in [[Lawndale]], seasons three and four (and ''[[Is It Fall Yet?]]'') show her second year, and season five and ''[[Is It College Yet?]]'' show her final year. However, the episodes within each season are not always in sequence.
Most famously, "[[Road Worrier]]" from the first season shows Daria and company attempting to go to [[Alternapalooza]], a rock concert that takes place in mid-August (per ''[[The Daria Diaries]]'') but is sandwiched between episodes showing portions of Daria's sophomore year at [[Lawndale High]] - and episodes set in the sophomore year show Daria knowing about Trent's band and [[Jesse Moreno]], who she only meets this time. "[[Fizz Ed]]" and "[[Sappy Anniversary]]" are also in the wrong order, with the episodes claiming the first takes place in January and the second in the previous Novemnber.
The same problem is seen with the episodes of Season Five and events in ''[[Is It College Yet?]]'', which show the characters applying for & visiting colleges before their eventual graduation. They would have to overlap in order to be realistic for a typical school year.
=== “Oops!” Animation Errata===
The [http://www.outpost-daria.com/episode_guide.html Episode Guide] page at [[Outpost Daria]] lists every episode and movie done for the ''Daria'' series, and also provides links to animation goofs noted in every production. Follow the link given and look at the column on the far right, "Oops." Jodie Landon's hair turns gray, Jane Lane's leggings vanish, the nose piece on Daria's glasses disappear, clock hands go away, discarded items reappear, etc. The Morgendorffers' home was particularly susceptible to startling transformations from episode to episode and even from scene to scene, making attempts to draw its layout problematic. In certain fanfics, animation errors are assumed to have actually happened, though under extreme circumstances (e.g., [[Lawndale Stalker]]'s "[[The House on Space-Time Lane]]" or [[The Angst Guy]]'s "[[Deus Jane]]").
