This debate is exactly why I don't number Riffs, but use release dates instead. They should be alphabetical, anyway. Why should, say, Phantom Menace be way on the other side of the shelf from Return Of The Jedi? Or Twilight be separate from New Moon?

Because some of the running gags and jokes are from riffs in release order....  I always tell my friend Tom that he can't watch certain riffs until he watches The Happening, due to the Lemon Drink jokes.
...and there he was, reigning supreme at number two.  The One... The Only... The Unabeefer.

I can see that. I don't get those lemon drink jokes myself.

Yeah, and all the "Where are they?!" references... "I want my family back"  ....  "Magneto!? Cerebro!!!"  I couldn't imagine watching the first Potter riff BEFORE the first X-Men riff....  I wouldn't get the "Not for Kevin!" joke

I heard plenty lemon drink jokes before The Happening.  I get it now, but it's not like it detracted from any sort of canon.  I also can see how I would say to someone "Oh you need to watch the X-Men 1 rifftrax first."  But the only true consequence is that they wouldn't get one line out of the hundreds of others already there.  I mean, this isn't Lost we're talkin aboot.

I think the answer involves drinking a lot of yellow-ish liquid.
