MTV's favorite animated sourpuss Daria returns to TV one more time on Monday, Jan. 21 at 8 p.m., in the movie "Daria: Is It College Yet?"

The one-and-a-half hour movie will air commercial free, featuring Daria and her friends as they prepare for graduation day and life after high school. Daria finds herself contemplating which college she should attend and will happen between her and her boyfriend, Tom.

Meanwhile, Jane faces getting rejected from colleges and Mack and Jodie contend with their parents' expectations.

In addition, one week before the movie, on Monday, Jan. 14, MTV will air "Daria: Look Back In Annoyance" a half-hour look back at "Daria's" past five years on MTV

Plus, "Making the Band" will make its MTV premiere on Saturday, Jan. 19 at 9 p.m. The former ABC series was picked up for 10 episodes on the cable music channel, giving fans a chance to catch up on the latest news about O-Town.

The show will follow the boys as they write and record material for their second album, open for Britney Spears on tour and continue to balance their personal and professional lives.

The pop boy band O-Town was formed by Lou Pearlman as part of the ABC series (whom they've since dropped). Since the release of their first album, the group was nominated by the Radio Music Awards for Song of the Year and performed during half-time at the World Series.
