I have to admit that I loved Naruto. I've only seen up to episode 130ish (good God, 130 episodes...I just realized how long that is) but I did enjoy a lot of the show. The characters are great, the music is great, and Naruto is one of the most likable main characters I've seen in anime. The filler episodes aren't as bad as everyone says (this coming from someone who hasn't read the manga) but they definitely aren't as good as the main plot. BTW I'm talking about the subtitled version, not the dubbed.
Cowboy Bebop is good. I guess anime is so huge that within the actual medium are differences in style and presentation. Some of it is silly and light hearted while some of it is so off the deep end that it makes a Kubrick movie look like amateur night. It's a lot like television in general -- there are shows that some people like and shows that some people hate. Anime is the same, you just have to find what you like.
