I just had a quick Q as ANN confuses me on this but I don't want to delve too deep because I don't want to be spoiled since I know next to nothing about the franchise. Can I basically start from episode 1 of any Gundam series, or is there an order in which I should watch them?

The ideal way to watch is to do so chronologically, starting from Mobile Suit Gundam. However, I can see how this can be a bit of a problem, and that old shows aren't for everyone. If you prefer, you can start with the first episode of the following shows:
- Mobile Suit Gundam (or the MSG compilation movies)
- G Gundam
- Gundam Wing
- Gundam X
- Turn A Gundam
- Gundam Seed (not Seed Destiny)
- Gundam 00
At a pinch, the following shows are part of the Universal Century universe, but they're separate enough that you can probably get the gist of what's going on. The same is probably true of Gundam F91, but that's the one semi-major Gundam show I've never watched.
- Gundam 0080
- 08th MS Team
- Victory Gundam
You can also start with Zeta Gundam, but bear in mind that it will spoil parts of Mobile Suit Gundam.
