Watch Kaleidoscope in any of these three orders
Netflix has recently released a unique limited series called “Kaleidoscope” that can be watched in any order and still be fully understood and enjoyed by the viewer. The series consists of 8 episodes, each with a colour-themed title, as well as a minute-long teaser titled “Black”. The colours of the episodes represent different periods in the movie, so the order in which they are watched does not impact the viewer’s understanding or enjoyment of the film.
There are three main ways to watch “Kaleidoscope”: in chronological order, in reverse chronological order, or in the order in which it appears on Netflix.
To watch the series in chronological order, the viewer should start with the “Violet” episode and work their way through to the “Pink” episode. This takes the viewer through a timeline of 24 years before the heist to 6 months after the heist. For an easier understanding of the movie, it is best to watch the episodes in this order: Violet, Green, Yellow, Orange, Blue, White, Red, and Pink.
To watch the series in reverse chronological order, the viewer should start with the “Pink” episode and work their way back to the “Violet” episode. This takes the viewer through a timeline of 6 months after the heist to 24 years before the heist. This may be the most challenging way to watch the series, but it could also prove to be the most intellectually stimulating. This might be the way to go if you enjoy a good brain workout. The order for watching episodes in reverse chronological order is as follows: Pink, Red, White, Blue, Orange, Yellow, Green, and Violet.
The most recommended way to watch “Kaleidoscope”, however, is in the order in which it appears on Netflix. Some viewers have reported that the order of the episodes on Netflix may vary by geographic location, but one thing that remains constant is that the “White” episode (the heist) appears last. This is the recommended viewing order because the “White” episode has been crafted to provide a satisfying level of closure to the series.
The filmmakers have put a lot of effort into making this episode especially full of reveals and good closure, and it is best experienced as the final episode. That being said, every episode of “Kaleidoscope” has its own set of revelations, so regardless of the order in which they are watched, the viewer is sure to be engaged and entertained. The order for watching the series as it appears on Netflix is as follows: Yellow, Green, Blue, Orange, Violet, Red, Pink, and White.
So, which order will you choose for watching “Kaleidoscope”? Whichever way you decide to watch it, be sure to save the “White” episode for last for the best viewing experience.
