I would like to know too, I'm about to watch UN-GO but want to know if I should watch Episode 0 before Season 1.

I suggest you watch Inga-ron right after episode 6. To my understand, the movie aired after this episode.
Personally, I enjoyed the anime better this way ;)

I second what Kino said. If you start with the Episode 0 like i did you will be just confused by the content and the flow of the show.

They do things differently in Un-Go so it's better to get used to the formula before jumping into the prequel.

if you pull up your PC's calendar and go back to 2011... you are 'probably' right. November 18, 2011 (according to basic math and MAL's listing of the TV series) was a Friday and the hypothetical airdate on TV for episode 6. also according to MAL the movie premiered Nov. 19, 2011. that was the Saturday immediately after TV episode 6.

well, it took me a hot minute to get through TV episodes 1-6 then the two episodes inside Ep0 and frankly... the listed 'watch order' here in this thread is BOGUS. i just finished Sentai Filmworks' English dub of all 8 'episodes' and frankly, you could EASILY watch Ep0 before the whole TV series. all you would do is spoil yourself on Inga's source, powers, reasons for being (maybe), and how she ended up with the MC. you also would kinda-sorta find out who the MC actually is and a good chunk of his backstory. 

no matter what folks say, there are ZERO PLOT POINT REQUIREMENTS in the first 6 TV episodes to watching Ep0. actually, Ep0 introduces ALL the major plot points i previously mentioned. as well as all the major supporting characters. PLUS! Ep0 answers a question i had about the MC during the first 6 TV episodes... why does he keep saying... "I would not know that. I was out of the country at the time." in response to many questions about items and incidents that apparently are general public knowledge. 

so, go ahead and watch Episode0 1st, or 7th and 8th. it really doesn't matter.
