Does Slayers have a timeline? I guess if you watch the series in the correct order...........But, I havn't quite figured out where the 'movies' fit in.

The movies take place before the series as they tell about the adventures of Lina and Naga. And Lina traveled around with Naga before she met Gourry. And in the movies she's 14 years old while she's 15 in the first Slayers series.

I thought it went:

Slayers
Slayers Next
Slayers Try

And then the Movies.

But, since I have not seen any of the movies, I can't make a judgement in where they fit into the timeline..

No, the movies and OAVs definitely come before any of the tv series. Naga was Lina's partner beofre she met any of the others. After the movies it goes Slayers, NEXT, then TRY. You can watch the movies in any order you choose though. Even though we know they all fall before the tv series, nobody knows what order the movies and OAVs come in.

That's not quite right. I do recall one of the OAV's had Lina and Naga meeting for the first time. I don't recall which offhand though. Otherwise they are pretty much interchangable.

The movies & OAVs are definetly before the series. Remember when Lina summons the jellyfish ? She says "don't ask me who taught me that one". I'm positive that Naga used that spell in the Slayers movie so presumably she taught it to Lina later on.

From the information I have managed to gather the movies and OAV's take place before the tv series.

So the timeline could go like this

OVA
Slayers: Dragon Slave
Slayers: Explosion Array
Slayers Excellent (consists of three episodes: Labyrinth, The Dreaded Future and Lina's Great Fashion Strategy)
(Total of 6 OVA)

Movies
Slayers Perfect (Slayers: The Motion Picture)
Slayers Return
Slayers Great
Slayers Gorgeous

TV Series
Slayers
Slayers Next
Slayers Try

The only thing I can't say for certain is how the OVA and movies mesh together timewise.
