I feel embarrassed for everyone involved in making that anime after watching that xDtherandombear said:
Its hard for me to say what you should see next considering I haven't seen most of these shows so instead I'll tell you what show you shouldn't see next on account of their probably being something better on your list. That show would be Moon Phase.
Moon Phase is well worth watching but it shouldn't be a high priority. There's nothing particularly special about it and it becomes dreadful after episode 17 at which point it loses all sense of direction of meanders meaninglessly. Also, you should know that the first two episodes are very boring; they set up the rest of the show competently but have little worth in their own right. I don't mean to bad mouth the show so much, as I said, I like it- episodes 3 through 17 at least.
Edit: Oh, I will also say that there's no way you should put off seeing Gurren Lagann for long. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes but all this GL fandom your seeing is actually warranted. I've never seen a show succeed so well at being both great dumb fun and a worth-while story at the same time.

Definitely Sayonara Zetsubuo Sensei.
I thought it was hilariousness in the unique way it destroyed melodrama and contrasted a suicidal (aledgedly - "What if I had Died!?") teacher with his eternally optimistic student.
You will have to watch it to know if it's for you though I guess, but I do recommend it on the basis of its uniqueness and humour.

Clannad if you want a very good romance/comedy/drama
K-ON! if you want something cute, funny, and innocent with some good music but little-to-no plot.
High School of the Dead for epic titty action.
Gurren Laggan for epic mech fights and all around awesomeness.
Cromartie High School if you want something hillariously crazy.
And Welcome to the NHK if you want a good comedy / drama
Those are the ones I've seen.

High School of the Dead was pretty good, although I hate that they only did twelve episodes. Berserk was also good, but didn't complete the story, since the manga is ongoing.
Clannad was pretty good. K-On! wasn't bad for a casual watch.
Also Haruhi's order should be up on the wikipedia page I think. At the end of every episode, it tells you the next episode number according to the order of occurance. I'm not sure what the order is, so I can't tell you.
A lot of it depends on what you're into. If you like stuff like Berserk, I recommend Claymore as well. I also recommend Golden Boy since it's an older one and pretty funny. Black Lagoon is pretty good too.

Gurren Lagann. Only in that show could <url=http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1419/867028773_5b351f8370.jpg>this turn into <url=http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/4718/1188841826826ce4.png>this. Feel the raw emotion!
You must watch Clannad and Clannad After Story. Of all the movies, TV shows, and anime I've seen, it is by far the most touching. You will cry, and you will cry lots, just don't fight it.
EDIT: And also, despite what everyone else is saying, Clannad is not depressing, the message of the show is an extremely happy and heart-warming, although it does have it's very, very sad parts.
