Why Are Some Of The Watch Order Numbers Blue?

Why are some of the watch order numbers blue?

Hi!

If you're using the list on my blog, it's explained in the introduction of the list:

To clear things up, the list below still mainly follows air dates. The episode number will be blue if I personally verified it follows in-universe order. In the meantime, I suggest you use the spreadsheet and follow the in-universe order established by the community.

That means whatever number isn't blue is still ordered by air dates :)

To compare, the blue numbers here match the green ones in the spreadsheet. Well, it should, because I haven't updated the list on my blog in a while, it's become a nightmare to edit ever since I added color 🙃

Stay safe out there!!

#114 Law and Order SVU season 17 episode 2 did not have anything to do with the story line just 17 episode 1 did.

Hi anon!

I have to admit it's not the most relevant it can be to the Chicago franchise, but that episode is the second part of the SVU episode right before, S17E01. In some cases, these two episodes are even merged into a single 2-hour long episode, so it's not possible to list one without the other.

Thank you for putting this together! I lost some of my memory a few years ago and I didn't know where I left off, so I started over and this is a brilliant help! So far, Peacock is not free for the SVU episodes (I'm in the US). IMDbTV only has Chicago Fire right now. Hulu maintains the last few episodes of Fire for a period of time, only has S.8 of P.D. and only S.6 of Med. Justice seems to only be available on Amazon Prime. If that helps the community! Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank YOU so much for sharing this!! I hope you're doing well, it must not be easy at all 💚

Thank you, this is precious information since I don't use those services and I often get asked this! I'll go and update my Where to Watch post!!

Please stay safe! 💚💚

Does Fire 2/21 go before PD 1/13? Antonio looks fine and there is no mention of his recovery

Hello anon! Sorry for the time it took me to respond!! :/

I remember trying to order episodes around the end of Fire S02 & PD S01 was a real mess, so it's real probable the flow might feel a little off.

If I remember correctly, PD 1x14 ends with Antonio in recovery, so I think I put Fire 2x21 after because he's already back in PD 1x15 and I wanted to make it look like some time had passed. Which... seems strange since he cameos in 2x21. But in my notes I wrote something about PD 1x13-1x14 happening before Fire 2x21 because it should hapoen before Gabby's test... And I have no memory why I thought that should be the case.

All in all, when I'll have time, I'll go and review this ordering! Thanks for bringing it up!

Stay safe!

What does petitcartonvert mean? Can you please explain it. I wonder each time I reload this page. Also thank for very much for the list, I am sticking to it and powering through from the start over the last year and this list has been essential. Many Thanks again.

Hi anon! Thanks for the love, much much appreciated! 💚

Hahahaha, you're actually the first one to ask me this! My username is actually three French words, « petit carton vert », which means « little green cardboard » in English... yeah. It's from an inside joke I came up with with my friends many years ago, and thus the honorable petit carton vert was born, and still thrives to this day. I shortened it over time, and it's pretty much become my online name everywhere now, so if you see me feel free to say hi! :)

Thanks for the question! Stay safe! 💚

You have PD 4x01 Silos on both 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 on the spreadsheet.

Hello! Yes! It's intentional!

So far, the PD 4x01 episode chronologically happens right after PD 3x23, so that's why it's listed in the 2015-2016 tab. It's in the 2016-2017 tab too, but it's greyed out because it IS a PD S04 episode after all. If it's not listed in the season 4 tab, someone would then inevitably ask me why PD 4x01 isn't in the season 4 tab.

Sorry, I try to make it as easy to read as possible, but I think for this case it's the best I can do! x)

Thanks for the question, hope this cleared it up! Stay safe!
