There are plenty of shows with extensive seasons, like Naruto and Bleach, but also other series, like the Fate films and shows, which provide more variety.

• Cowboy Bebop
  
• Black Lagoon
  
• Fate/stay night
  
• Fate/Zero
  
• Samurai Champloo
  
• Great Teacher Onizuka
  
• Rurouni Kenshin
  
• Afro Samurai

There are general classics such as Fullmetal Alchemist, Hunter x Hunter, Naruto, One piece etc.

Some classics haven't fully reached the mainstream and probably never will such as Cowboy Bebop, Space Dandy and Monster.

There's obviously more variety in the old classics as opposed to the standard shounen anime. If you value more serious, adult anime I would seriously recommend for you to watch Vinland Saga, Monster, Pet and ID:Invaded. You should also keep an eye on the upcoming spring season which will bring Tower of God to the anime world.

There are very few shows that are still talked about 20 years later. Cowboy Bebop is always my first recommendation.

Cowboy Bebop is definitely one of the best anime ever made. It's still holding it's ground with its animations even 20 years later. The music is fantastic and the show is really original. I also haven't heard an anime that has better dub, aside from Space Dandy
