If you have been wondering how to watch the new Netflix heist drama Kaleidoscope, the streaming service has finally provided their recommendation for the ideal way to see it all play out. Kaleidoscope premiered on Netflix earlier this month.
As a result of the fact that it was published on January 1st, a day on when everyone’s capacity for problem solving was most likely at its lowest, the streaming giant has provided an important piece of advice for any Tarantino aficionados.
Kaleidoscope, which was created by Matchstick Men author Eric Garcia, takes place over the course of 25 years and follows a group of thieves led by Leo Pap (Breaking Bad’s Giancarlo Esposito), as they attempt to pull off an elaborate heist. For those who have not yet started watching, let us explain that Kaleidoscope was created by Eric Garcia.
There are seven episodes total, and you can watch them in whatever sequence you like. Each episode is titled after a different colour.
White, the last episode of the season, is the only one that has to be seen in a particular order in order to properly complete the story.
It has been determined that there are 5,040 different possible combinations of the seven episodes that come before White if you adhere to the regulations and play the final episode first.
Teasing audiences that they could turn the series into ‘a Tarantino movie’, Netflix shared that in order to do this, they would need to kick off with Blue, followed by Green, Yellow and then Orange. You’ll then move on to Violet, Pink, White and Red.
But they also said it could be watched as ‘Orange is the New Black’ by following the order of: Green, Violet, Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, White and then Pink.
And if you fancy a ‘classic detective story’, Netflix suggested watching Orange first, followed by; Green, Violet, Red, Yellow, Blue, White and finally Pink.
Netflix previously said the logic behind the episode order swapping was to provide the viewer with a ‘different immersive viewing experience’, which pulls them ‘deeper into their own personal viewing order’.
As Garcia said: ‘The idea is that when you watch the white episode, you’re learning true answers to things that have been hinted about beforehand and afterward.’
‘You really find out everybody’s true motivations. It’s almost like a skeleton key.’
As one viewer pointed out, Violet is set 24 years before the heist, Green seven years before, Yellow six weeks before, Orange three weeks before and Blue five days before.
Red is set the morning after the heist and Pink is set six months later.
The series also stars Paz Vega, Rufus Sewell, Tati Gabrielle, Peter Mark Kendall, Rosaline Elbay, Jai Courtney, Niousha Noor, Jordan Mendoza, Soojeong Son and Hemky Madera.
