Following the release order means you will get the same experience as people watching the show at the time of release. Personally I think you should follow the release order as much as possible, with only a few modifications. Mo matter what "Sleeping In Light" should be watched absolutely LAST. Watch "Objects at Rest" and the grande finale "Sleeping In Light" Watching these 2 episodes back to back has the best emotional impact.

#WATCH ORDER OF THE PHOENIX MOVIES32 MOVIE#
Watch the movie "River of Souls" as this takes place in the year 2263 between "Objects in Motion" and "Objects at Rest" in Season 5 and makes the most sense to watch here.Watch the Season 5 episode "Objects in Motion".Watch "The Lost Tales" the 2007 I think it was, direct to DVD movie.
#WATCH ORDER OF THE PHOENIX MOVIES32 SERIES#
Watch the 13 episode series Crusade next.Watch "A Call To Arms" which sets up the spin off show Crusade.Watch "Legend Of the Rangers" A lot of people slag this movie, but for G'Kar alone it is worth watching and infinitely better than Star Trek V.Watch Season 5 right up to the episode BEFORE "Objects In Motion".This is the best time to watch the movie as you don't get spoilers and it ties in really well with episode 9 in Season 4. Watch "In The Beginning" immediately after Season 4 Episode 9 and before Episode 10.This is good background material for the next movie Watch Season 4 Episode 9 with Delenn as she goes into the dreaming.

So what did manage to get filmed largely feels like a teaser to something that will never happen. Episode 1x14 was planned to be its version of Signs and Portents, launching the true storyline of the series. (To be perfectly honest, I almost suggest skipping Crusade altogether.

Other much more spoilery advantages to this order include:

Since that episode was never filmed, we can imagine it happens between Each Night I Dream of Home and The Path of Sorrows, when the chronological ordering switches the uniforms back. Appearances and Other Deceits had an in-universe designer create the old uniforms as a new design, then one of the unfilmed episodes would have a laundry accident that "returned" them to the new, high-budget uniforms seen in the others. After the budget was increased, TNT mandated that the high-budget new uniforms be aired first - so they became episodes 1x01 - 1x08. Then filming went on hiatus while the budget was increased and better sets/etc were made - and TNT's meddling went crazy.įor example, episodes numbered 1x09 - 1x13 use the original, low-budget uniforms. I strongly, strongly suggest chronological order - it resolves most of the inconsistencies TNT created when they started interfering with the series, and the character development makes a hell of a lot more sense:īasically, 5 episodes of Crusade were produced with minimal meddling. If you plan on watching the Crusade spinoff, don't watch it in airdate order. This is too big for a comment, so I'm posting it as another answer:
