Any Pros/Cons for seeing the first show of Fantasmic vs. the second show? Do you have to spend more time waiting for one or the other? Do ether help/hinder timing of other parade or fireworks? Any opinions out there?

We plan to make dinner reservations for FP if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Although still crowded, the second show seems easier to get a good view.

I personally plan on going to the first showing of F! because you can stay and watch the fireworks. You might find this thread helpful:

We went last week and did the RBT dining package. Dinner was really good, I had heard mixed reviews but we were pleasantly surprised. We did the first showing, got there about 30 minutes early and got great seats. Watched the fireworks after, again great seats.
The only con for us was that sitting on the ground for so long was really lame and my back hurt by the end of fantasmic.
