Most have already been covered, but I'll throw in my own recommendations:
(*All of these that I'm suggesting are dubbed with the only exception being Persona 4 The Animation which will be available in dub form later next month*)
Naruto -Yes, yes, people dislike it, but it was my first real anime and it will stay in my favorites list.
Baccano! -1930s era gangster story told from the various perspectives of immortals.
Durarara! -A modern day story about gang wars, mythology, and some really great characters. (Izaya is so baller.)
Death Note -I haven't finished it yet, but from what I've seen so far, it's quite promising. Modern day story about Japan's smartest high schooler finding a mystical notebook that can kill anyone as long as their name is written in it.
K-On! -Cutesy show about High school girls and their adventures in a music club. Very light hearted and funny. And cute. Very cute. I almost died from the cuteness.
Persona 4 The Animation -Highschooler transfers to a school in the boonies and finds out he contains a mystical power of summoning other worldly beings and jumping inside the TV to save other highschoolers.
Gurren Lagann -An anime that's about achieving greatness by doing the fucking impossible. And it does just that. It doesn't take itself very seriously and it can be classified as "explosion porn", but it's still one of the best animes ever conceived.
Black Butler -Little kid had his family killed in a fire. Kid then proceeds to make a deal with a demon to protect him from further harm. The demon protects the child in the role of a fucking amazing butler.
Angel Beats -Dude wakes up and finds out he's dead and fights with other dead people in a world where they must confront a little girl named "Angel". The plot gets better so I won't spoil anything here.

All right no shit Digimon Tamers if you can get through the first 20 episodes of character building you will see that that is not a show for kids there is no way i understood that when i was a kid. Much better as an adult. Otherwise:
Code Geass
Cowboy Bebop
everything else was covered by everybody else.

I'm surprised by the lack of Bleach so far.
I'm not a big fan of Anime, but I must saw. If you want some good Ameri-me I must recommend Afro-Samurai, The Boondocks, and Black Dynamite.
That's really all the anime I know (also Pokemon). There's also Hentai if you feel like switching all your video related entertainment to Japanese cartoon style.
EDIT:
OT: I remember enjoying Devil May Cry from when I watched it. There's also Wolf Rain, Full Metal Alchemist, Fist of The North Star, and Code Kiosk (I don't know how to spell it). But I know nothing about those.

That along with "If I couldn't ____________, then what kind of butler would I be?"neonsword13-ops said:
Cowbow Bebop is always a solid choice for just about anyone, although my taste in anime is a bit more quirky than I think yours will be.
I have enjoyed Soul Eater, Kirby of the Stars (the SUBBED version only, the dub sucks), Panty and Stocking plus Gilbert (which I still have no idea what was going on, but it was enjoyable at the very least) and Lucky Star (which I still and wonder who the show was originally intended for).

Oh this thread again? It's a good thing I enjoy this type of thread. I'd recommend:
Darker than black
Clannad, Air, or Kanon
Code Geass
Wolf's Rain
Stiens; Gate
Chaos; Head
Ano Hana (it has a really long name but is usually shortened to Ano hana, translates to "We still don't know the name of the flower we saw on that day" roughly)
Baccano!
Spice and Wolf
K-on!
Angel beats!

Only anime I've ever had the balls to sit through is High School of the Dead, which for the most part, I enjoyed immensely. Some parts got a little awkward with my younger brother sitting next to me. But it's cool for zombie-killing action and blatantly large tits. So there's that.
Anime is weird.
*Edit: Oh, and Lucky Star. That was kinda passive, but it was all right. All the girls are technically supposed to be overage, which is weird considering their size and figures. I guess that's the other end of the spectrum. All female anime characters are either little girls, scantily clothed idiots or blatantly oversexualized badasses. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Berserk, Claymore, Mnemosyne(quite weird and ecchi), Hellsing(make sure it is the OVA and not the 13 episode anime), Fruits Basket and Highschool DxD(quite ecchi and it is very aware of it) are good in my opinion. Other ones have already been mentioned. Highschool DxD is not for everyone and Claymore has quite an unsatisfying ending and is continued in the manga.solidsnake101023 said:
I know this isn't what you want to hear, but dude this thread is one of the most made threads on this site, couldn't you have just looked up some previous answers?
OT:
Need to see: Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist and Code Geass
Optional: What everyone else said.

Clannad + Clannad After story
Baccano
Code Geass
Higurashi No Naku Koro ni
Hellsing
Full Metal Alchemist
Steins Gate.
