Star Wars Best Watch Order For First Time Viewers

This list does not fully follow chronological or release order, it is a mix of both as I think is best
(I watched everything here more than once in different orders)
this description does not fully explain the order it only explains the jumps in timeline, look at the actual list to get the full detailed order

'ABY-BBY' dating system:

BBY stands for "Before the Battle of Yavin," and ABY for "After the Battle of Yavin."
Year 0 is the year of the battle of yavin (Episode 4 A New Hope)

Timeline explained:

• Start at (Year 0) "Star Wars" AKA "Episode 4 A New Hope" the first in release order, where it all started in 1977
• (Year 0) "Rogue One" Direct prequel to the first movie, explains the mission to get the DS plans mentioned in "Episode 4 A New Hope"
• (3 ABY) "Episode 5 The Empire Strikes Back"
• (4 ABY) "Episode 6 Return of the Jedi"
• Go way back to (32 BBY) "Episode 1 The Phantom Menace"
• 10 years later in (22 BBY) "Episode 2 Attack of the Clones"
• then we go more than 10 years before "Episode 1 The Phantom Menace" for "Tales of the Jedi: Episode 2: Justice" & "Tales of the Jedi: Episode 3: Choices" Between (68 BBY) and (42 BBY)
• "Tales of the Jedi: Episode 4: The Sith Lord" (32 BBY) Occurs concurrently to "Episode 1 The Phantom Menace"
• "Tales of the Jedi: Episode 1: Life and Death" (36 BBY) 4 years before "Episode 1 The Phantom Menace"

• (19 BBY) "The Clone Wars: Season 7"
• (19 BBY) "Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith"
• (19 BBY) "Tales of the Jedi: Episode 6: Resolve"
• (19 BBY) "The Bad Batch"
• Jump 9 years to (10 BBY) for "Solo: A Star Wars Story" (Prologue occurs in 13 BBY)
• (9 BBY) "Obi-Wan Kenobi"
• (5 BBY) Start of "Andor" & "Rebels" (When watching rebels pay attention to episode names and not numbers, episode numbers are messed up here)
• "Rebels" Continues until a few months before "Episode 4 A New Hope"
• The epilogue of the last Episode of "Rebels" occurs after the end of the Galactic Civil War at (5 ABY)
• (34 ABY) 30 years after "Episode 6 Return of the Jedi" "Episode 7 The Force Awakens"
• (34 ABY) "Episode 8 The Last Jedi"

The best order to watch all the Star Wars movies and shows

This list is meant to unite all Star Wars related movies & TV show in the most chronological way possible; Including both Legends (Spin-offs & shows released before April 25, 2014) and Extended Universe. Obviously, video games, books, novels & fan-made contents are not included.

Comments are welcome in order to make this list the most accurate possible.

• "Star Wars: Clone Wars" (2D Animated TV Show) appears to have a straight forward viewing order. It seems like its right placement would be before the CGI version of the show, to be confirmed.

• "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" (CGI Animation) chronology is pure chaos; Season Two Episode 16 & Season One Episode 16 are to be seen prior to the movie, for the rest I based myself on Sapitoelgato's list from Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWars/comments/35ex94/the_clone_wars_ultimate_episode_order/
  I've noticed there's a "Star Wars The Clone Wars: Darth Maul Returns" (2012), apparently it's the last four episodes of Season Four packed alltogether in a DVD so I didn't include it.

• The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978's TV movie) events occurs after Episode IV

• "Star Wars: Droids" & "Ewoks" (1985's Animated TV Shows) are really old-school/kitsch/childish, you may want to give a pass on these two.

• "The Ewok Adventure" & "Ewoks: The Battle for Endor" are two TV movies for kids supposed to happen just before Episode VI.

• "Star Wars Rebels" is pretty straight forward; Some specials, the first movie, Season One, second movie & Season Two. However, I am not sure yet about the placement of Season Three.

• "Solo: A Star Wars Story" (2018) occurs somewhere between Episode III and IV, but before Rogue One.

• "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" (2016) occurs right before Episode IV, it even covers up a tiny bit of it for our sweet pleasure.

• "Lego Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles" has been included (right after Episode III), however the latest episode (Clash of the Skywalkers) is missing from Trakt.tv

• "Lego Star Wars: The Padawan Menace" (2011) is part of The Yoda Chronicles (prior to it)

• "Lego Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out" (2012) is part of The Yoda Chronicles (prior to it)

• "Lego Star Wars: Droid Tales" (TV Show 2015) covers the whole saga (Episode I to VI) through C3PO and R2D2 eyes, but the events are claimed to happen after Episode VI.

• "Lego Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures" (TV Show 2011) is set between Episode V and VI. The Trakt.tv entry is misleading though. It's a two seasons TV show with five shorts between the two seasons.

I am willing to include the whole Lego Star Wars franchise but I might need help to do so, here's the list of movies/shows I'd like to include:

• Lego Star Wars: Revenge of The Brick (2005)
• Lego Star Wars: The Quest for R2-D2 (2009)
• Lego Star Wars: Bombad Bounty (2010)

There might also be some movies I don't know about, please do not hesitate to tell me about them (knowing that all fan-made content will not be included).

THIS LIST WILL BE UPDATED PERIODICALLY. (Last update: 2018-06-26)
