22.19 Mothers, Sisters, and Lovers of ANDOR Dec 14, 2022

Show notes

In a previous episode of Fangirls Going Rogue recorded at the halfway point of ANDOR Season 1, we spoke about the various and unique female characters in the show. Not one woman, but many! Now that season has wrapped, we explore the various ways that characters can be compared and contrasted: Wow is Edie different as a mother than Mon? How is Maarva's role as a parent different than Galen in Rogue One? How do we perceive sisters in arms Vel, Cinta, and Kleya? Why it's okay to be conflicted about Dedra?

We are joined by Meredith Duckworth for this conversation as she brings valuable insight as a mother and professional.

BE SURE TO CHECK OUT OUR ANDOR MEDIA DAY HIGHLIGHTS AND HEAR FROM TONY GILROY, DIEGO LUNA, GENEVIEVE O'REILLY AND MORE!

OUR MARVEL STAR WARS ZOOM DISCUSSIONS WILL RETURN WITH THE BAD BATCH EARLY IN JANUARY. Stay tuned!

22.18 Tales of the Jedi Interview with Charles Murray Nov 02, 2022

Show notes

Tales of the Jedi is a series of six short-form animated fables that visits crucial moments in the lives of two Jedi - Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku - who both choose to leave the Jedi Order before Order 66. While all three of the Ahsoka stories were written by Lucasfilm key creative Dave Filoni, the middle Count Dooku animated short "Choices" was written by Charles Murray and his daughter Élan Murray. Charles also served as director. Sarah Woloski and Tricia Barr talk to Charles Murray about the development of this story. In the process we discovered why he wanted to work on The Clone Wars and offer some insights into his work on the hit-series, for which he wrote the Ahsoka Leaves the Jedi order arc (Season 5) and the Martez sisters arc (Season 7).

22.17 Women of Andor Oct 22, 2022

Show notes

After reading Tony Gilroy's interview on StarWars.com where he discusses "The Education of Cassian Andor" as a working title for ANDOR, Tricia Barr and Sarah Woloski explore the many ways the women of the critically-acclaimed show inform the central character. At the end we include a non-spoiler review for Tales of the Jedi, which arrives on Disney+ October 26th. This is must watch for Star Wars fans.

We discuss The Direct's article on ANDOR audience demand. The author of the original tweet on the audience demand has since revised his assessment. As his revision still shows ANDOR behind in audience demand, we have left our thoughts in this episode because we believe the show will only get more eyeballs going forward.

22.11: Obi-Wan Kenobi Delivers! Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

Star Wars tackles another legacy character with the Obi-Wan Kenobi series and delivers Big TIME! Tricia Barr and Sarah Woloski explore the themes of family and identity that are integral to Deborah Chow's storytelling vision for the Disney+ series. Not only are our understandings of foundational characters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker furthered, a diverse cast of characters - Reva, Roken, Haja, and Tala - leave their mark in the galaxy far far away. We're intrigued with the potential for more Leia Organa stories flowing out of this series. We close out the episode with a listen to the musical cues.
