Timothy O'Neill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Timothy O'Neill is a fictional animated character who appeared regularly on MTV's animated series Daria. On the show, Mr. Timothy O'Neill taught English and Self Esteem class at Lawndale High, and was in many respects the polar opposite of the uptight Mr. Anthony DeMartino. Mr. O'Neill was gentle, soft spoken and ludicrously sensitive, very in touch with his emotions but incapable of controlling them. His English assignments were often ill-disguised attempts to get his students to express personal pain or experiences, and he himself would often cry in class. On the second season episode, "The Daria Hunter", Mr. O'Neill (unwittingly) began a sexual-but-not-romantic relationship with the bitter, man-hating Janet Barch, which is repeated in episodes plotted similarly to "The Daria Hunter", Fair Enough and Just Add Water (and was mentioned briefly in the episode Murder She Snored).
In the series finale/made-for-TV movie, "Is It College Yet?", O'Neill is coached by Mr. DeMartino to break off his relationship with Janet Barch, which proved unsuccessful.
