Generally speaking, I agree with the three episode approach. I think that's a reasonable amount of time to give a new anime to win you over and/or hook you in.

The only exceptions I would make here is when the first episode is very clear about what the show is going to be about, and it's just not your cup of tea (example: I could tell from the very first episode of Deadman Wonderland that this show is simply too dark for my tastes; it wasn't a general quality issue, but rather a basic genre/taste preference one). These exceptions are rare though.
