Between Baccano, G-L and SZS you've covered all the best XD however, these other lists are pretty disturbing...
I'd say of the one you haven't seen, there's Hitohira, Manabi Straight, Hidamari Sketch, Hayate no Gotoku, lol, you've got a lot of watching to do... Potemayo, I still haven't seen Terra e, so whatever... For things airing this season: ef, Blue Drop, Clannad, Moyashimon, Shugo Chara, Sketchbook, Kaiji |

If you haven't watched Nodame Cantabile, then I think that's the best completed series of this year.
For series that are airing now, I would recommend Kaiji, Shion no Ou, Clannad, Myself ; Yourself, ef - a tale of memories, and Minami-ke. Yes there are lots of good series this season (in my opinion), and it could be my favorite season yet (from when I started following anime as they are released). Disclaimer: I'm not dissing Lucky Star, Death Note, Gurren-Lagann, or any other famous anime...I've just never seen them yet.

I, however, AM dissing at least Death Note. What a horrible series. Sure it starts out grandiose, but around 1/2 way through after a certain event the series loses its flavor. |

If you don't have a little cultural knowledge (kotatsu, yakiniku, etc) or watch a lot of anime, a small portion of the scenes are just going to make no sense. Like the opening food sketch, I loved that one having eating lots of crazy Asian pastry and cooked yakiniku, but others don't seem to feel the same way. If you don't have time to experiment: Clannad, ef ~a tale of memories~, Hayate no Gotoku,

I mean, if you're sitting there going 'what the hell is she doing?' when Konata tries to 'set off flags' with her pals, then it's going to be a lot less fun for you. |

Maybe ADV should just give LS a big "not for anime n00bs" warning sticker Anyways, getting back to the OP, I'll second (or third or fourth) Seto no Hanayome (wacky comedy involving forced marriage to a Yakuza mermaid) and Hidamari Sketch (slice-of-life comedy at art school) |

wow thats allot of anime. i dunno which one to watch first.
i already watched nodame cantabile and im in episode 13 of seirie no moribito so i guess thats out of the "list"....about lucky star i stopped after the first ep. i just couldn't find it funny, the first 10 mins was some chibi girls talking about eating food, does it get better later on??? everyone on this tread seem to like seto hanayome so i guess thats a good one..umm..let see...i've read some reviews about minami-ke and it kindda grabbed my attention so y not. Also i was wondering if there are darker/mature or non romance/harem/comedy/moe/school life anime other than claymore which i never liked |

Lucky*Star does get better. Like you I almost dropped it after episode 1. Still I'd rate it a 7/8; funny, but not much staying power. For a light-hearted four-girls-go-to-high-school show, I'd recommend Hidamari Sketch.
For the darker/mature group, I'd suggest Mononoke (and it's prequel the final arc of Ayakashi Samurai Horror Tales). Mononoke is unlicensed; Ayakashi is not. Other excellent, and unlicensed, shows this year (besides Seirei and Nodame) include Dennou Coil, Oh! Edo Rocket, the previously mentioned Shion no Ou, and Moyashimon. If you somehow managed to miss Bartender and Hataraki Man in 2006, I'd add those to your list as well.
