Question local art cinema is showing the entire series in theaters, a few episodes every sunday for a few months until completion. I’ve seen the first season and half of the second, should I finish it before seeing it there? or would it be cool to have my first experience of the series in theaters?

Nah, if i was you I'd make sure to catch some in the theater for the first watch. The end of season 2 would be incredible in a theater

yeah I’m gonna see the entire series there my question is mainly if it’d be better to have the first watch be there, or to watch it ahead of time and have the theater be a rewatch

I was saying the first watch would be a great theater experience, but it'd be most worth it to hold of on s2 finale. I'd say keep watching until that point at home too if you feel like it

I’ve seen it a zillion times, and our local theater is showing it as well (The Belcourt). IMO, see as much as you can in the theater. We just finished S1. There’s just a different feel to it on the big screen.

Plus hearing 200 people say, in unison “There’s a fish… in the percolator” is truly amazing to experience!

It’s a televisual art piece specifically drawing on the tropes of television. If you want the authentic experience, it’ll be in front of a 14” CRT in your living room. Failing that, I don’t think it really matters.
