Pull up a chair in the Gryffindor common room and grab yourself a slice of treacle tart because in this episode, we open the chamber (and several tangents) in a deep-dive rewatch of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. From philosophical lion monsters and Dobby slander to a spirited re-casting of Gilderoy Lockhart and a Russian lawsuit over house-elf resemblance... let’s just say this one’s got layers like a shedded basilisk skin.
Don't forget to guess which houses we're in...

Key Takeaways
Welcome to Rewatching! Each season, we do a fan-friendly, deep dive into the most recognizable and nostalgic film franchises in pop culture such as The Lord of the Rings (Season 1), Harry Potter (Season 2), and many other favorites. Our cast and crew, similar to the franchises, are new every season but what they lack in consistency they make up for with a love of these films. We are fans first, not experts and...fair warning: there will be spoilers because this isn’t "Watching"... this is Rewatching.
