The first episode of "Daria" aired on March 3, 1997, roughly nine months before "Beavis and Butt-Head" ended its original run. Titled "Esteemsters", the episode established Daria and her family's move from fictional Highland, the setting of "Beavis and Butt-Head", due to uranium in the water to the new series' equally fictional locale of Lawndale. As well as introducing Daria's parents and younger sister as principal supporting characters, the first episode also introduced Jane Lane, Daria's best friend and confidante. Other than a brief mention of Highland, "Daria" did not contain any references to "Beavis and Butt-Head".
