Guardian Slo-Mo Rewatch: Round Four sign-ups!

[china_shop]

Hello, Guardian Rewatchers! Thanks so much to everyone who's been part of the discussion, or has been reading along. ♥

Come join us for round 4 of the Guardian Slo-Mo Rewatch. We're watching half an episode a week (about twenty minutes) so we can talk and squee about our beloved 镇魂 | Guardian drama. With the fourth batch of episodes, we have nosebleeds and aggressive nose-wiping, Zhao family backstory, and Chu Shuzhi in a singlet! We also get trapped in an Absolute Zero laboratory, and the SID celebrates the Reunion Festival!

For those who remember our last rewatch, this time we're aiming for a lighter touch. Posts are on the minimalist side - a brief summary, one quote, one screencap, maybe one noteworthy detail and some discussion-starter questions. Minimalist comments are more than welcome, too!

We're looking forward to some fun discussions as we revisit Haixing, Dixing, and the SID – and of course you can always drop in on any of the previous discussions at any time.

Fans of the novel, the drama, or both are very welcome! You don't have to keep up with the rewatch – it's absolutely fine to dip in and out. We want to hear what you think! Those of us who participated in the Readalong or are otherwise familiar with the novel are likely to compare and contrast the two canons, but it's 100% okay to focus purely on the drama.

Please consider hosting a post or two! Comment with a date from the schedule below! Posts should ideally be made sometime on the Friday or Saturday, in any time zone.

Ohhh, for once I'm not even behind, but a 520 Day break is such a great idea! And probably extra great when you're modding. :D

I'm not promising anything yet, but the moment I can easily keep up with more than a couple of weeks in a row, I WILL be hosting! /not a threat :D :D
