Some of my current favorits are Beck, Lucky Star, Soul Eater,and Naruto Shippuden. It all really depends on my mood at the time and I'm always on the lookout for other good anime. Taste changes with time, things I loved a few years ago I couldn't bring myself to watch now.
omg.....sooooo many good ones over the years...DBZ is my all time fave, along with DBGT, then its Bleach, but i've seen soooooooooooo many series over the years, i have to suggest a few
Trigun
Full Metal Alchemist
Full Metal Panic (and Fumoffu lol that spin off was hilarious)
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World
Bleach
Bandit King Jing (short but pretty good)
Gundam (any of them really...HUGE HUGE fan of Wing and Gundam X, those were my 2 favorites..somebody mentioned MS 8th team, that was good too)
Golden Boy
Slam Dunk
Ayashi no Ceres
8th Man After (movie, but still awesome)
Peace Keeper
and yes Azumanga Daioh or however you spell it..was F-in HILAROUS...love that one lol
Mind explaining to me why? I watched about 20 episodes and got tired of it because it just seemed like a remake except it was supposedly more like the manga. Stopped watching because I was disappointed. What makes it better than the original?
I still watch Naruto and Bleach, but though the fillers on both started to kill it. DBZ was my favorite when I was younger (as it was for everyone else). FLCL is awesome, especially the music. I <3 the Pillows. It really got me into Japanese music. Full Metal Panic is awesome, but I'm shocked no one mentioned Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. I absolutely LOVED it. It's my favorite series. The action, the plot, the characters. Everything is really good and over the top. Also I'll also throw Evangelion out there because it's a classic. It was WTF a bit with the plot, but I hear evangelion 2 for the PS2 explains a lot of the plot that is never explained ever, but I dunno if it's canon to the plot of the series.
Dragonball Z and the first few seasons of Pokemon are pretty much givens for me. Those two are the reasons why I started getting into anime, as for favourite series..
Naruto Shippuden
FMA(Brotherhood)
Death Note
Canaan
Azumanga Daioh
Elfen Lied
Outlaw Star
FLCL
Rorouni Kenshin
I'm slightly torn between my overall favourite.. It's a tie between Clannad and Cowboy Bebop. I could watch Bebop forever as i'm sure many would agree, and no anime has ever plucked my emotional strings as much as Clannad did.

It branches off into an entirely different and much darker and more mature storyline.
