One sitcom and six spin-offs, and four of the six work without it.
Broadcast order, and the thing worth knowing before you start is that this is not one story in seven parts. Four of the six spin-offs re-explain themselves in their own first episode and can be watched cold. Only three of the eleven rows here genuinely need something watched first.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
Thirty-seven episodes. Season two contains Cousin Maude's Visit and then the backdoor pilot Maude, so by the end of it the first spin-off is already set up.
The Jeffersons Move Up is in season five and The Jeffersons premiered a week later. Running them in that order is the only bit of scheduling here that really rewards being followed.
The two run as one story across thirteen years. Archie Bunker's Place season two is where Edith dies, and it is written on the assumption that you have watched the nine years before it.
Both stand on their own. Maude is the sharper show; Good Times is the one that changed most over its run, and not by choice.
Gloria assumes you know what happened to her marriage. 704 Hauser only needs the one-line premise and is five episodes long.
Then what? Checking In is four episodes and is only worth it if you liked Florence. The two Live in Front of a Studio Audience specials are restagings rather than continuations and work best once you know the originals. Good Times: Black Again is not really connected to any of it.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.
The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.
Every franchise you have touched, in one code.
Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.
This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.
Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Part of the subscription.
Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
This stops your subscription too. It is cancelled at Stripe in the same step, so nothing more is charged. The rest of this month is not refunded and you will not be able to use it, so cancel from Manage or cancel and delete later if you would rather keep it.
