Hi! I'm a newbie to the Shadow Unit verse and I have a question that may have been asked before.

I'm almost done reading the season one episodes (I just need to read the season finale, which I will do today), and I haven't read any of the extras yet because I was always afraid I'd accidentally stumble upon something spoilery. I know the Wiki has a whole list of where all the extras fit chronologically, but what I'm looking for is how they fit in order of publication (I'm one of those who read The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe BEFORE the Magician's Nephew), Easter Eggs, DVD Extras and Case Files and all. I'd just feel weird if I read them in any other order. So if someone knows of a list somewhere, or is bored enough to actually make a list, that would be extreeemely helpful. Thank you!

I'm not sure, honestly, that there's any way to manage that. You can, of course, go through the episodes and in each one, read the associated Easter eggs (the easiest way to find them is to use your browser to remove style or find links through each episode)--and you can obviously go through the DVD Extra page and read those in order. However, there are some easter eggs (for example, those from the Easter Egg hunt) that I suspect are pretty much only findable through the wiki at this point.

Part of way Shadow Unit works is that it's a performance art form: it evolves and changes, and coming back to revisit or learn it after a performance is going to be a different experience than being involved as it happens.

A completed narrative is a different beast than a narrative in progress.

I recommend to new people that they read the easter eggs immediately after finishing the episodes in which they appear.  There aren't spoilers for subsequent episodes, but there canbe for the eps they're in, and it means you don't have to go back later.
