I increasingly see that question on other forums and it drives me up the wall. That question is a perfect storm of two things: ▪︎the mindless consumer fanboy-ism that has destroyed all major film franchises ("it contradicts the lore, is objectively miserable, and an active waste of my time, but it has Star Trek in the title, so I'll watch it.") ▪︎developmentally stunted inability to fill in any blanks whatsoever
I promise you, Pee Pee Poo Poo: The Musical: Season 1 has absolutely no key nutrient you have to absorb to comprehend season 2. In fact, if we're talking one of these shows that go through three showrunners a season, it might be more comprehensible if you skip the earlier stuff.
I saw someone on another forum mention that they were trying to put together a large convoluted watching order for Star Wars content for their kids.
What a retarded clown world, when the answer isn't simply: The original trilogy and maybe the prequels. But no, some parents just "have" to groom their kids into cons00ming all the endless garbage. Just like their NPC parents already do.
Heaven forbid they just watch what looks interesting.
Aye, or that.
I've always had mixed feelings about trying to deliberately pick out and select what media to feed to your kid (not for content reasons, but to try and ensure kids develop a lot of the same interests). In some ways it can be a little benevolent, but in certain respects it can be a little self-centered and creepy.
I think there's a middle ground to be had, but trying to plan out full-blown movie playlists is clearly not a moderate approach.
And no, I'm not bashing on religion or otherwise trying to instill healthy values in your kids, that's perfectly normal and usually healthy. Nor am I bashing on trying to share a few interests with your kids. But handpicking an entire Marvel watchlist for them when they're not even teenagers yet is just a little... weird, but maybe that's just me.
