I'm told GetBackers can take a while to get into. I don't know, I have such stupid crazy love for it, I realize I'm not rational on the subject.
Dark Angel is pure id-candy, and whether it works for you is going to depend on a) whether it hits your narrative kinks and b) how well you like/tolerate the actors involved. I have never followed enough of her career to have the standard hate-on for Jessica Alba, I don't know Michael Weatherly from Adam (and the character annoys me anyway), I am of the Jensen Ackles Horde, and I like pretty much all of the rest of the cast I recognize.
I hear The Sarah Connor Chronicles is pretty awesome. I've got the first season to watch one of these days, and I saw and adored the pilot.
If you're looking for new manga to read, I could probably hook you up with a couple of titles.
There were only three seasons of "Slings and Arrows" and the first two were the best in my opinion. The third (King Lear) had a darker tone; still good, but not as manic as the others.

I would love manga recs, but the purpose of this post was mostly because I've run out of things to occupy my brain while I knit. ;)

I also recommend "Witchblade" -- The 2000-2002 series with Yancy Butler, not the anime (I haven't seen the anime but YB kicks ass!)
"Dead Like Me" died far too soon. There were only two seasons of this HBO series, but they are both gold.
If you have a soft spot for Shakespeare, "Slings and Arrows" is a must. And I'm not just saying that because I'm Canadian. ;)
I need to pimp one anime series - Samurai 7. Beautiful.

Oh, Slings and Arrows! I've watched the first couple of seasons... is there more? And where can I get it?
I will give your other recs a try :)

I bought my full series set on Amazon. :D
