'Kaleidoscope' actor says she also got 'stressed out' trying to pick the right order for her family to watch the series

"Kaleidoscope" star Niousha Noor told Insider that she thinks the episodes "Red" and "Yellow" are a good way to start.

• Netflix's "Kaleidoscope" can be watched in almost any order, leading to some confusion among fans.
• Niousha Noor, who stars in the show, said she was also "stressed" deciding how to watch the series.
• She said that she felt pressure trying to pick the right order for her family to watch.

"Kaleidoscope" star Niousha Noor said that, like fans, she also struggled to decide which order to watch the series in.

The new hit Netflix series focuses on a heist story spread over 25 years. However, viewers are able to watch the series in any order, with each episode given a color name rather than an episode number.

Many fans have complained on social media about struggling to be able to decide which episode to start with and accidentally watching the "White" episode first. "White" is the only episode that viewers are instructed to watch last.

In an interview with Insider, Noor, who plays the FBI agent Nazan Abassi, said that she was "stressed out" when picking the episodes for her family to watch.

"I had a few of my friends and family over just to watch it, and I cannot tell you how stressed I was," the actor said. "I know what happens but I'm essentially responsible for how they will see the show."

Noor continued: "So, I'm not kidding. I started with 'Green,' and I turned it off. I was like, 'No, no, no, let's actually start with "Violet."' I'm like, 'No, that's gonna give it away.' They were so annoyed. They're like, 'Just put on a color. We'll figure it out.' And I was so stressed out about doing it wrong, but really, every order is right. That's the whole point of the show."

If anyone is struggling to pick an episode to start with, Noor recommends starting with "Red," which is set hours after the heist happened, or "Yellow," which is set six weeks before the heist.

"There's a lot of conversation about 'Red' not being a good one [to start with], just because it just happens right after the heist," Noor said. "And no one knows who's who. Maybe I'm biased because I know what's happening, but when I saw 'Red,' I was like, 'This is a cool first episode,' because it so draws you in."

She added: "I think the kind of safer route is 'Yellow.' It is a really great start as well. But really all the orders can work, but I think 'Yellow' is a good start."

Paz Vega, who plays Ava Mercer in the series, and Peter Mark Kendall, who plays Stan Loomis, told Insider that they didn't watch the show in any preferred order, but their favorite episode is "Violet," set 24 years before the heist takes place.

Vega added that she tears up whenever she watches the moment at the end of the episode, in which Leo Pap (Giancarlo Esposito) has an emotional talk with his daughter, Hannah (played by Austin Elle Fisher).

"I remember one moment I got so emotional every time even when I read it in the script," Vega told Insider. "Oh my God, that scene, the moment that Giancarlo is talking with his daughter, it's like, 'Oh, my goodness.' I got emotional every time I watch that scene and it probably is my favorite scene in the entire show."

"Kaleidoscope" is available to stream on Netflix.
