The Flash: Season 1

1x01 Pilot

Updated 24-01-19
It seems like the Arrowverse has come to an end. As all the shows have been ended or cancelled. It's been a ride. For me Arrowverse died when Arrow ended. It also died when Flash ended.
Thank You

PS. If you are new. Skip Stargirl and Superman & Lois. They are not really part of this. I would also skip Black Lightning
Arrowverse viewing order:

[The list is more or less uppdated now, but I'm thinking of making separate lists for "Pre-Crisis" and for "Post-Crisis" and keep this one as "Arrowverse" ]

This is the simplified list for easy viewing order for Arrowverse!

  • Includes:
    • Arrow
    • Flash
    • Vixen
    • Supergirl
    • DC's Legends of Tomorrow
    • Freedom Fighters: The Ray
    • Constantine: City of Demons
    • Batwoman
    • Black Lightning

Webisodes (you can find most of these videos at YouTube or at CWtv website):

  • Blood Rush - between Arrow S2E05 and S2E06.
  • Chronicles of Cisco - between Flash S2E17 and S2E18.
  • Superhero Fight Club 1.0 - is a promo for the final episodes of Arrow S3 and Flash S1 (arrives after Flash S1E18)
  • Superhero Fight Club 2.0 - is more or less a promo for Supergirl joining CW. (arrives before Flash season 3)
  • Constantine - watch before Season 1 of Constantine:
    • Modern Mystery: Tales of the Dark Arts - Who is John Constantine?
    • Ravenscar Institute Patient Debrief
  • Stretched Scenes:
    • The Flash - Stretched Scene #1 : Flash S4E06
    • The Flash - Stretched Scene #2 : Flash S4E07
    • The Flash - Stretched Scene #3 : Flash S4E09 (there's also a deleted scene for this episode)

Constantine has a cameo in Arrow S4E05. I do recommend you to watch this series, but there's no must. But he might get back into the Arrowverse one day. (and I also would recommend to watch it in this order: 1, 6, 2-5, 7-13. Episode 6 was shot to air as the second episode of the series)

I have added Supergirl Season 1 before the crossover episode to the list. You can watch it basically whenever you want, as long as you watch it before Flash S2E18 or after Flash S2E18 (I personally prefer to watch it before Flash episode, but both ways work). Also S1E04 and S1E05 were aired ouut of original order. Episode 5 should be viewed before episode 4

Constantine: City of Demons: So it appears that Constantine: City of Demons is not a continuation of the Constantine series and so it is not included in Arrowverse. Instead it's in the same universe as Justice League Dark (so it's in DC Animated Universe). But for now I'm going to leave it in the list, as it still explains things like "Newcastle" and etc. But they may get connected, as Constantine will becomes a regular on DC: Legends next season. So we will wait and see.


Upcoming:

There will be a Arrow spin-off series following Mia (Katherine McNamara) also Canaries Laurel Lance and Dinah Drake will be part of the spin-off.

Superman and Lois 2020 Supergirl spin-off series.

Green Lantern series on HBO Max streaming services

Last Updated: 13th Jan 2023 (GMT)

Recommended order: "Rank,Asc" - the recommended order is based on each episodes release date with some minor restructuring to allow for back to back viewing of multi-part episodes.

2023 update: - Superman and Lois up to date. Currently no news regarding season 4.

Included

  • Arrow (concluded)
  • Batwoman (canceled)
  • Black Lightning (concluded)
  • Constantine (canceled)
  • DC's Legends of Tomorrow (canceled)
  • The Flash (concluded)
  • Supergirl (concluded)
  • Superman & Lois (Season 04 has been teased by Elizabeth Tulloch)
  • Justice U (CW officially passed on the show)
  • Constantine: City of Demons (concluded)
  • Vixen (concluded)
  • Freedom Fighters: The Ray (concluded)

TBA
- The Flash 1990 (Earth-90) will be added to the list soon It has been a while and I honestly can't decide, there doesn't seem to be a good place to add this series and may be better off not being included in the list.

I intend to include this series at some point but the issue I'm having is figuring out where in the episode order it should be placed since the series is based on Earth-1 and not Earth-90, which means we can't place those episodes at the start, currently thinking maybe before crisis since thats when Earth-90s Flash makes an appearance.

Episode I changed for back to back viewing:

  • Legends of Tomorrow

    • S01E01-E02 Pilot Part 1 and 2
  • Supergirl

    • S04E09 Elseworlds crossovers
    • S05E11-E12 Back From The Future Part 1 and 2
  • The Flash

    • S07E10-E11 Family Matters Part 1 and 2
    • S07E17-E18 Heart of the Matter Part 1 and 2
    • S08E01-E05 Armageddon Part 1 - 5
    • S08E19-E20 Negative Part 1 and 2

Missing? if it doesn't meet 1/3 of the following criteria then it's not officially part of the Arrowverse.
- The character has to make an appearance (not a cameo).
- There must be some sort of a connection between the shows.
- The creator announces that it's official.
The Crisis event was filled with Cameo's which is why those shows are not techncally part of the Arrowverse. For example. Black Lightning wouldn't have been part of the Arroweverse if he didn't appear in Armageddon, up until that point the CW Chief, President, Exec Producer and Producer all publically stated that the series was not part of the Arrowverse.

Episode order based on the following sources;
https://www.arrowverse.info
https://www.geekyregards.com/p/arrowverse-viewing-order.html

Some episodes that appear on this list might not show on the above sources, trakt gets the data before they do so I intend to just add based on airdate shown by trakt and if needed I'll re-organise if I feel its necessary.

This is a list with episodes of various DC Entertainment TV series in internal chronological order, according to this list: http://thetimelinesite.com/timelines/27-arrow-the-flash-tv-series-timeline.

2021-01-10: If you would like a more complete list of DC films and TV-series in chronological order, so more than just the Arrowverse, have a look at my Trakt port of a DC Cinematic Universe list (that was incidentally also originally started by DIrishB): https://trakt.tv/users/nidunc/lists/dc-cinematic-multiverse-viewing-order-according-to-thecomicboard-com-members?sort=rank,asc

Notes

  • This so-called Arrowverse or shared multi-verse is also known as the DC CW Universe, as almost all TV-shows are produced by The CW (with the exception of Constantine and the first season of Supergirl)
    • Vixen and Freedom Fighters: The Ray are produced by CW Seed.
  • Obviously this list doesn't include any comic books or other written work in the Arrowverse. It only includes episodes of the various TV-series and miniseries (and films too, if they are added to thetimelinesite.com).
  • On this list I put season 1 of Arrow: Blood Rush (or Blood Rush: Arrow, according to trakt.tv) between season 1 and 2 of Arrow. You should actually watch it between episodes S02E05 and S02E06 of Arrow.

The ultimate watch order for DC's Live Action Multiverse.

Marvel and DC films and series listed by air date. Also include are other related comic book films.

This is a Trakt port of this list on The Comic Board (originally started by DIrishB—rest in peace-and continued by “Pro Bot” and other users after he passed away): https://www.thecomicboard.com/threads/dc-cinematic-multiverse-viewing-reading-order.14689/

Are you a Marvel connoisseur too? Then I’ve got you covered; here’s my Trakt port of a chronological list for the Marvel Cinematic Universe: https://trakt.tv/users/nidunc/lists/marvel-cinematic-universe-viewing-order-according-to-mythbank?sort=rank,asc


Not included (besides all the comics and other written material, obviously) ...


Notes

  • Some episodes are intentionally out of order (sometimes being very far off from where one would expect them to be) — shows where this is the case are Wonder Woman, Lucifer, The Flash (1990), Supergirl, Titans et al.
    If you still think I made a mistake while porting the list on thecomicboard.com to Trakt, feel free to leave a comment;
  • One should watch the Special Edition of Superman (1978);
  • Vixen: The Movie (2017) should be watched in two parts; the first five(/four?) chapters take place on the spot where I placed it (so between Arrow 3x08 and The Flash 1x09) and the remaining chapters take place between Supergirl 1x04 and Arrow 4x07;
  • One should watch the Extended Cut of Suicide Squad (2016);
  • One should watch the Extended Cut of Green Lantern (2011);

Includes: Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, Batwoman and Superman & Louis.

This is a list with episodes of various DC Entertainment TV series in internal chronological order, according to this list: https://geekritique.net/2015/05/19/arrow-and-the-flash-chronological-order

  • The rest of Supergirl season 1 can be watched after S04E23 of Arrow.

2017-10-27: The post on geekritique.net, which this list is based on, hasn't been updated in roughly half a year, so I consider it to be abandoned. Thus I advise anyone using this list to use my other Trakt Arrowverse list instead: https://trakt.tv/users/nidunc/lists/arrowverse-viewing-order-according-to-thetimelinesite-com.
Besides, the geekritique.net list didn't include all episodes in the first place (see the above bullet point for an example), while thetimelinesite.com does include all episodes (and is still being updated).

I will still be checking geekritique.net from time to time, but I presume it won't be updated in the future.

Arrowverse shows in semi-sensible viewing order as per: https://arrowverse.info

All episodes from Arrow, The Flash, Constantine, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Superman & Lois, Batwoman, Stargirl and Black Lightning in order of release date.

2

Based on koomy's list from IMDb with some additions: http://www.imdb.com/list/ls074499769/

Contains the following shows: Arrow, The Flash, Vixen, Constantine, DC's Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl (for now, more will be added as they are released).

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

• "Arrow: Blood Rush" is actually a BOSE commercial in six parts lasting about six minutes in total (available on Youtube). While they are not really mandatory, they should be watched between episode 5 and 6 of season 2.

• "The Flash: Chronicles of Cisco" is a four part short also available on Youtube, not mandatory.

• Constantine: Episodes can be slotted in at will as long as you watch them before S04E05 of Arrow. They're not mandatory as the show is somewhat inachieved but you might enjoy the character. Update: An animated series being planned, the story might continue from where the show stopped.

• DC's Legends of Tomorrow: I included the first special episode before the first episode because this special kinda introduce the show explaining where the characters are from (in a "making-of" style) whitout much spoilers while managing to refresh our memory about them.

• Supergirl: Episodes can be slotted in at will until S01E17 (included) as long as they're seen before Arrow S04E19. Episode 18 is the first time Supergirl get to meet a character from the Arrowverse (The Flash).
Side note: For Season 1, you may encounter a wrong episode order depending on the sources (only some, I didn't meet this problem): the right order would then be 1-2-3-5-4-6 to end, but it is not a big deal as it actually doesn't change much.

• "Freedom Fighters: The Ray" will be integrated as soon as we have informations about it.

• "Constantine" (Planned animated series) will come up at some point, it might continue the story from where the TV show stopped it, more news to come.

THIS LIST WILL BE UPDATED PERIODICALLY. (Last update: 2017-03-09)
