Here's my take on cliche- I actually like it (well most of the time), for the reason that I've had bad experiences with unique stories; i.e. ones that take unprecendented turns... they never turn out well
And with Medaka and Zenkichi being similar to Haruhi and Kyon... well, alf the time that's all the people need to compare two series (in fact, there's an anime called Angel Beats that also seems very similar to haruhi, at least in terms of the Haruhi look-a-like)
