TV series: You have to skip the first season, it’s a slow start and kinda shit. Go back to it later, except for S01E07 and 08, those are necessary to understand the story arc.
In S02, watch E03,04,05,08,11 and 02 in that order. Still drags on but there are some memorable moments. S03 is great. Except for the ending, skip that. And it all goes downhill starting in S04.
But if you stick with it, S07 is bearable again.

Best series of all time!

When does game of thrones get good? Season 8?

Klear ,

The memes were top tier.

aiden ,

The walking deads first season is great! Not the rest though

silasmariner ,

I bought and read the first comic, watched the first series, and called it good.

Kusimulkku ,

The only serious I’ve seen this sorta shit for is BSG and then it was most recommended to just disregard that bs and watch it in release order

rotkehle ,

no shit. that’s exactly how everyone talks about the series I need to watch.^^

superkret ,

TNG or Babylon 5?

mcforest ,

You’re talking about Clone Wars, right?

I applied these rules to True Detective and I am now sad and confused.

Renacles ,

I thought you were talking about Jojo for the first half and was ready to defend part 2.

superkret ,

I was thinking of what I was told about TNG and Babylon5 but the episode numbers I wrote are just random.

Evotech ,

Does anyone really watch a tv show like that?

Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis.

My friend insists Battlestar Galactica has a crazy order. His partner wants to watch it and he got irrationally angry (at the show, not at her).

I guess she watches it without him now. He refuses to even discuss it. I like to poke at him about it occasionally.

dev_null ,

Yeah. Both can be watched separately, but if you want to watch both, it’s nice to do it in chronological order where episodes of the two series are mixed together, as you get some references to the events in the other series.

Honestly, if I’m told that I need to watch something in a weird order in order to enjoy it, I just drop it from my watchlist. There’s plenty of good media to watch, I’m not gonna do that stupid shit.

Sonicdemon86 ,

You’re not gonna like Fate then. It is a good series just complicated time-line and a complete mess.

I - I mean, you really only have to watch, like, season 4 through 17, pretty much. The rest you can just skip.

I wonder if there’s a serialized Mr. Frog comic?

DO NOT ASK ABOUT HOW TO WATCH FATE/MONOGATARI

Godort ,

Fate is pretty easy nowadays. Just start with literally any series made after 2011. They’re all self contained stories that explain the premise within the first few episodes.

We’re a long way from the old days where you had to read the VN if you wanted to have any idea about what was going on in the UBW movie.

rockerface ,

Literally just watch Monogatari in release order. It’s out of chronological order on purpose

Even_Adder ,

When am I supposed to play Melty Blood?

Sabata11792 ,

I had a watch guide scare me off of Fate.

MentalEdge ,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

Just start with Zero. It’s a prequel that lays out the narrative devices of the series while being a pretty neat story in itself.

This but unironically

SkyezOpen ,

Yeah it’s correct, but if I may offer an alternate plan:

Simply don’t watch Eva.

camr_on ,
@camr_on@lemmy.world avatar

I’ll watch Eva instead of going to therapy and you can’t stop me!! (Neither can my doctor)

Is the guy on the right genetically deformed?

HK65 ,

No, he doesn’t exist, he’s an art project.

Once comics start going public domain, I hope the first thing people do is release them as chapters

HakFoo ,

With American comics, it’s not even the shattered continuity, it’s that availability is a mess because some of the franchises are so ancient and collectible.

If I want to read through One Piece from the 1997 start, my library probably has/can inter-library loan all 105 volumes, or I can go to mainstream retailers and get any I’m missing without a huge fracas.

If I want to read Batman from the 1940 start, I’d better hope some of the rarer issues come up at auction in the near future AND that I can mortgage my house to afford them.

I’m amazed they never put out a DVD-ROM collection that’s “Everything Marvel/DC did prior to, say, 1990, as PDF scans” just so mere mortals have a chance to enjoy the experience of completionism.

If it’s anything like magic the gathering, whales and third party sellers are to blame

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot ,

I’ve got a DVD of 20 years of Amazing Spider-Man (1986-2006).

capt_wolf ,
@capt_wolf@lemmy.world avatar

Make sure you watch the corrected DVD order because Fox thought more action would be better and put the 2nd episode first, the first episode 11th and totally fucked any hope for a second season…

superkret ,

I’m still not over it ;_;

CaptainBasculin ,

Speaking of Dragon Ball, it’s in a very weird “how to progress further” dillema after Toriyama’s death. Various people have the rights for different purposes; and want to do different things with the franchise.

I just hope it doesn’t end up like LOTR franchise where they cash out for shit ass products that doesnt respect its source material.

AeonFelis ,

He originally appeared as a minor villain in Captainman , so you’d have to read that first. And the previous issues, for context.
