SD was great at what it was set out to be, and it was successful within its target audience. Therefore I look down on such things as G-Savior and Turn-A Gundam because they weren't able to attain the goals they'd set for themselves. SD did, so although it's not exactly your normal Gundam show or even something most people older than ten would want to watch, it was a solid show for what it was.
SD gundam does exist its in the future though. actually in the time line if u wacth that show really close it looks like its really set in the future where gundams dont play a big part like they used to...I think SD is converting to transformers storyline in being the protectors lol..but anyway lets not get off subject its part of the gundam series its the last of the last in timeline wise just beacuse its not serious that doesnt mean u shouldnt count it out....
1. Gundam Wing (which introduced me to the whole franchise)
2. MS Zeta Gundam
3. Gundam G (for it's nice characters, even if the show was nice and wacky)
I liked SEED too, actually. ^^V Char's Counterattack was really nice for me as well.

08th MS Team - One reason cause it actually shows war as it is. Not as some teenagers who are somehow superhuman or awesome at piloting. Plus I love the romance of it.
I just finished 0083: Stardust Memory and that was pretty good as well.
I love G Gundam, and as I have only seen an episode or two of other series, by default it is my favorite. And yes it is cheesy, but to quote Shirt-guy Dom, 'the cheese must roll.'
