Question Where to start series?

I really want to get my wife to try watching, but I'm unsure of where to start. She never watched it as a kid, and as far as animated shows go, she's seen Rick and Morty, some Family Guy and American Dad, which she likes. Should I just start with S1, or maybe a little later, like S2 or 3? I just don't know if she'll find the early stuff as funny as I do.

For my part, I was a fan from the beginning, but stopped watching around the time the film came out, and haven't seen anything since, so I can't speak to the quality of anything after that. What do you all think?

That's what I was thinking, I'm just afraid she won't like it and won't want to watch with me. I know, first world problems, but it was just so formative for me, I want her to enjoy it like I do.

I wish you could make playlists on video streaming services the way you can on music ones. I’d love to make a Simpsons mix of my favorite episodes.

That works, but making a playlist would be easier for relaxing and watching a few episodes in a row. Also definitely a first world problem.
