Grab your camcorder and remember to rewind your VHS rentals, it’s time for Morgendorks! This week we’re taking a look at “Monster,” wherein Daria and Jane are tasked with making a movie for a class assignment—and they decide Quinn is just the right subject matter for the bleak, existentially galling piece they’re aiming to produce.

We also take a dive into the camcorder fad that plays a central role to this particular episode! What had everybody carrying around these bizarre, inconvenient devices? Why were they at every birthday party for, like, twenty years?
