Umm Let's see...

Okay i'm kinda rubbish at recommending stuff, what shows have you already seen?

[Midnight]

thats it

Sailor Moon
Bleach
i used to watch Digimon if that counts

and i catch yugio every now and then but not enough to completly follow it

[hiya123]

Hehe...So you'll like anime from Shonen jump ^^ (All action anime ^^ )
Such as-

Naruto
Ultimate Muscle
Dragonball
Shaman King

Also there's a few anime like Sailor Moon, such as-

Tokyo Mew Mew
Cardcaptor Sakura/Cardcaptors
Magical Girl Pretty Sammy (a spin-off of Tenchi Muyo! )
and
Full Moon wo sagas***e (quite depressing and happy at the same time...I was in tears by the end ^^; )

I hope you'll like a few ^^

EDIT- Oops! Full Moon wo sagash*te counts as swearing here ; Trust me it isn't, it translates to "Searching for the full moon" ^^;

R.O.D the tv

HMV got tonnes of cheap anime movies and series box sets out the mo, try these ones...

Ninja Scroll
Appleseed
Ghost in the Shell (both film and TV series)
Paprika
Highlander
Virus
Dead Leaves (so mental you will be in stitches)

I can't guarantee these will all be to your tastes but if you have a varied outlook on anime, all of the above you should satisfy you.

D.N. Angel is my favourite.

Other recommendations are:

Series:
Bleach

Full Metal Alchemsit
Ghost in the Shell
Sola
Cowboy Beepbop
Orange Road

Films:
Parpika
Nausicca
Howl's Moving Castle
Spirited Away
Kiki's Delivery Service
Princess Monoke
Tales from Earthsea

They are of various tastes and were recommended to me so im making my way through them at the moment.
There should be enough there to last you a while so enjoy

Ive only watched a few anime, as i usually read the manga, but here is what i love:

Fruits Basket
D N Angel

Howks Moving Castle is an amazing film, as are all studio ghibli movies, My Neighbor Totoro is a good one also

I recommend all of the Studio Chilbi movies as they all showcase some amazing animation.

I do recommend the following.

For comedy, Excel Saga

For action, Cowboy Beebop

For Sci fi, Evangelion

For Mecha fans, either Escaflown or Gundam

For drama/ gothic action, Trinity Blood

For Fantasy, Slayers

Martian successor nadesco has a good storyline and is  a brilliant story with humour and the odd twist. The only bad thing about it is that the ending is so pridictable.

Serial experimental lane is quirky, spooky, interesting, serious and a few other things. The last episode is actually a bit sad...so if you like happy endings...this isnt really a happy ending...

Excel saga. I recomend this one. Even though its confusing on the odd occasion, it is funny and strange and you cant help but laugh.

And then there is pani poni dash that ive started to watch. Its funny, the characters are weird...including the school rep who is too wierd.
The teacher is only eleven/ten. Although im not sure what the story line is much in this...most of the storyline is fine till you get to episode 13 or 14.

[bunny-summers]

I highly recommend

Death Note
Tengen Toppen Gurren Lagann
Code Geass

They are all awesome!

Death note is on my list of ones i want to get, first of all i need to collect a few dvds left from excel saga, trigun, pani poni dash, school rumble, vampire princess and a few others

[dreximgirl]

I'd say def try Cardcaptor Sakura, Fullmetal Alchemist and Death Note - they are all brilliant (though definitely watch the subs as the dubs are awful esp on Cardcaptor Sakura)

Although not on DVD here in th UK, I suggest checking out Megazone 23 Parts I and II. T'was one of the first OAV and the first one that was a huge success. Plus, it's believe that the Megazone series inspired The Matrix. There is a Part III, but it's not exactly highly thought of.

[Jessy]

Tales of the Abyss

[veritas]

What about the Original....  Gatchaman.

[Demonique]

Tenchi Muyo
Gurren Lagaan (it's not the full title but I can't remember the full title)
Blue Gender
Elfen Lied (it has a gorgeous opening sequence but is extremely violent - violence in the opening frames)

[CHARM]

any of the full metal panic series.
fumoffu! is especially funny.

and azumanga daioh.
each episode is different,they dont really follow on from each other and its a great show to watch if you dont want to use your brain very much.

Sounds a little like pani poni dash, well it started off following each episode but then from the 5th volume onwards it got confusing!
