Question from a new viewer....


Okay, so I'm new to The Cleaner, and I've only seen two episodes of the new season...but I really enjoy it a lot, and I want to catch up on some of what I've missed. I got to wondering, though, whether I need to watch this show from the very beginning, or if I can just randomly catch older episodes from the first season. Is there any overarching storyline from week to week, or can I just TiVo the show whenever it's on and enjoy? :)

Help would be appreciated!

I don't think you'd be too confused if you watched them out of order. The main storyline that carries over is that the main character is living with his wife in the season one, but they eventually separate by season two. Other than that, each week is basically a new case that they're working on.

Watch episode 5 from season 1. Then you can watch whatever episode you wan't in whatever order.

also if your up to it you can catch the episodes in order at 7am on a&e. its about a couple episodes in right now but it will start back over once season 1 is over.

Personally, I'd try to view it in order from S1, E1, because there are big backstories with his wife, Ben, Akane, and Swenton that you're completely missing out on.

I mean, the show is still enjoyable without knowing what is going on, but it will be a lot richer if you know what they've all been through, separately and together.
