("Dragon Ball Z Kai" debuted in 2009, which was a re-edit of the original TV series. It doesn't present any new story content and was made using almost entirely existing footage, so I'm not counting it as an entry that you'd need to watch in this list.)

(There was also a two-part tie-in episode of the anime "Toriko" featuring Goku called "Dream 9 Toriko & One Piece & Dragon Ball Z Super Collaboration Special" which aired on April 7, 2013.)

This list lays out the optimal viewing order for the entire Dragon Ball Franchise, separated at the relevant "season" breaks for easy viewing. The order is based on the original Japanese release dates and the entries are separated by series. (All movies/specials are placed immediately AFTER the TV season during which they were released to avoid the films spoiling any new abilities, character changes, etc. that occurred in the TV show prior to the movie/special.)
