Tallima: Hey guys, does anybody know the order that I need to watch Arrow season 4 and the Flash season 2. Thanks!

JMich: From what I recall, Flash was on Tuesdays, Arrow on Wednesdays. Alternating between the two is ok for the most part, or you could go with the link OneFiercePuppy provided.

OneFiercePuppy: This might help: http://arrowverse.tv/2016/07/15/viewing-order-arrow-the-flash-legends-of-tomorrow-supergirl/3/

zeogold: Wait...what?
What kinda nonsense is this? You've gotta watch multiple shows in some sorta cockamamie order just to get a complete story?
This is like Marvel comics in the 90s, except it's DC and on television.

zeogold: You've gotta watch multiple shows in some sorta cockamamie order just to get a complete story?

OneFiercePuppy: No. Think of it in terms of more well-known cosmologies:

You don't have to read The Silmarillion to get a complete story from either Hobbit or LoTR, but it expands on the world history.

You don't have to watch Captain America to enjoy Thor, but there are call-outs and side stories.

You can watch any one of those series without ever seeing an episode of any other, and you'll get complete stories. But there are guest cameos and side stories that you can get a little more from if you're "in the know."

Tallima: Last time, a big spoiler was revealed for the flash bc I saw an arrow episode that talked about a bad guy or something. It wasn't anything huge, just a tad annoying.

Tallima: Hey guys, does anybody know the order that I need to watch Arrow season 4 and the Flash season 2. Thanks!

mistermumbles: Frankly, I can't stand the DC TV shows. Silly storylines with bland characters played by the young & beautiful. *gags* Obvious part of the problem is that it's made for broadcast TV so its squeaky clean image doesn't really wash. I also get a good laugh with them having to use these absolutely generic city/location names: Starling, Central, National... =P

DaCostaBR: Is it still worth watching Flash if I never bothered to finish the first season of Arrow?

It was okay, but I'm not a fan of the half episodic/half serialized style of storytelling you see in 99% of shows, I feel like you just end up with two weak and inane stories instead of one good one. I prefer full serialized like The Wire or full episodic like Law and Order (the original).

But Flash at least sounds more interesting, with King Shark, Gorilla Grodd, Mark Hamill's Trickster, etc. Is it the same thing? Will I get 20min of people staring longingly into each other's eyes for every 5min of cool superhero stuff?

OneFiercePuppy: I'd rather watch Firefly than Star Trek, rather watch Chuck than The IT Crowd. If that's too juvenile for you, then ignore me because my tastes suck ^_^ ). .
