  • Maybe I'll watch Picard first since it's run its course while others are still in production...

  • If the plan is to watch all of them anyway, why not just watch them in the order they were made / aired? Even if they are set in times of a different order, you know you won't be missing a reference they make to an episode not yet (at the time) released.

  • Well, @komodosp, I watched the previous series in series premiere air date order. However, DS9 & VOY have about a 2 year overlap, and there are some references in VOY that wouldn't have made sense if I'd not watched DS9. My question is, if I just watch Discovery, will I miss references in later episodes because (for example) something that happened in Picard? If I will miss references, then I'll make myself an episode air-date chart and be sure to watch them all in episode air date order, if not, I'll watch them in series air date order...

  • Amanadiel's answer specifically indicates that this is the case: Bullet 2 indicates that if I don't watch at least some of Picard, I'll miss out on some details when I watch season 3 of Discovery. That's exactly the type of info I was after.

  • I mean if you watch them in the episode release date order you won't have this problem.
