I have tried to minimize jumping between shows
S = Season | E= Episode
if it only says S01 that means all of that season
I've added a few extras that fall into the storyline
With the MCU bringing on board the runaways, cloak & dagger, helstrom, and even shield touched on it a bit...and now with the new mutnats movie and the upcoming eternals movie...the mutnat universe should really be included into the mcu.
So here I will try to add an extened mcu viewing order of the, what I call, Mutant Universe (mutantverse)
Marvel has always kind of treated the x-men as the redheaded stepchild and not really part of the mcu but always hinting around about it. I mean in the comics and cartoons many of the avengers have had crossovers with the X-men, many of times the hulk and wolverine are in episodes together, a few times spiderman has visited the X-men or even Storm got pulled into a "war" with Spiderman,the fantastic four and even daredevil have had crossovers with the X-men.
And so this opens up a handful of other shows and movies that should be included into the MCU. Now we won't go into all of the comics and animated series, we'll stick to the live action shows and movies, that said it is a bit difficult not to at least mention the '90's X-Men The Animated Series as it really does have a lot of the backstories of the mutant universes and sticking to just the live actions only, does leave a bit of a void where the cartoon would fill some of those gaps (again we're not going to go into all of the comic series or for that matter all of the other animated series).
Afterthought I will at least add the animated x-men shows to the alternative storylines and maybe eventually expand upon it with some of the other animated series (we'll see).
