And yet there are still at least 12 things on that list I will be watching.
I have to say, that made me lol.
But that is exactly why I don't watch nearly as much as I used to. Not just because of time constraints but because I just don't want to.

It's the same with everything. Games, music, movies, US TV shows etc - most of them are rehashes of stuff done before.

Yeah it's true. But at least on video games they at least [undefined=undefined]try[/undefined] to do something different from their competitors (I don't mean a series, like CoD or Halo where's it's the same poo poo).
It's like the anime industry is scraping by and they know it. I guess it makes sense when they release 100+ new shows a year. Only a small fraction are going to be truly original.
"I love watching anime with pretty girls." > pile of K-on merchandise.
He meant "I love watching anime with moe", right?

Most of the originality comes from the indie games IMO.
The studio stuff, well, they're not even coming out with new names, just use an existing title and increment the version number...
If there was some way to allow more people to
make movies/shows,
feasible as a hobby, you can expect more variety/originality. Otherwise the studios monopolise the business and only need to produce something just good enough to turn a profit.
(actually, Youtube has been quite powerful in this, at least as a distribution channel)
Personally, I find anime typically has more variety than western TV in general, whom seem to always try to drive the same show to death. Movies are a bit different though.
