Hello, welcome back to House of R. I'm Joanna Robinson. That bedecked in Giles is the beautiful Mallory Rubin. And we're back in Sunnydale for college. Yeah. It's Buffy season four. It's the stay and gloat that gets us every time. We're here to talk to you about the first part, the first half of season four of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Did they cancel the reboot plans? Yes. Does that mean we're going to stop our rewatch plans? Of course not. No. Mallory's a completionist, so we're going to do it all. Yeah. And we're going to get into it right after this.
All right, quick programming reminders. Yes. So what we have coming up here on the feed is we're going to be engaging. with one of my favorite Star Wars characters, my guy Maul. That's right. He's getting not only his own show, season two already greenlit.
I know, it's exciting.
It's all happening for me. Shadow Lord time, let's go. So we'll be engaging with Maul next week. Thrilled. We'll also do the second half of this Buffy Watch next week. That's right. And then we do have, if I can't remember to forget you, we have Memento plans. We're doing another Nolan dive into Memento. So that is all coming up on the feed. I don't know. How can folks keep track of all of that? What do you think?
I would just recommend following the pod. Why not? Yeah, let's do that. Follow House of R on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

When you heard that mall shadow lord would not only be the... sensuous vocal stylings of one Mr. Sam Witwer as per usual as Maul but Wagner Mora the like Oscar nominated absolute goat and then Richard Ayoade like our favorite droid is here so like thrills honored delighted don't mind saying that I'm really enjoying the show we're having a blast we'll get into it next week okay Here are the plans. Yes. Ongoing. Buffy season four. We're doing episode one through episode 12. How did you decide to divide the season, Joanna? I don't know. It was a vibe and I felt it. Yeah, it's sort of always somewhere between 10 and 12. Yeah, there we go. We decided to divide it before sort of like the big bad really gets going in the second half.
It seemed like sort of a natural divide for me. So we're starting with the freshman season four, episode one, up through episode 12, New Man, which is a Giles episode. And I want to make sure. Why is it? Because like in the back half, a lot of other stuff is happening. And I wanted to make sure that we had some room to focus on the Giles episode, episode 12. Appreciate it. You're welcome. That's a gift from me to you.
Thank you. You're welcome. I feel seen. I feel known. I feel understood. And as usual, I found plenty to celebrate on the child's front. Plenty.
So we'll do our general discussion. We're going to talk a little bit more deeply about the episode Hush, one of the all-time great Buffy episodes. Banger. Is in this chunk. So we're going to be talking about that. And then we'll get into our categories and superlatives.
Okay. I can't wait. Sounds good.
I'm thrilled. And we both remembered to bring our mugs.
