Allow me to handle this:
Highly Reccomended:
MSG 0079 Series(The movies have some nice reanimated scenes, but the series is essentially better)
MSG 08th MS Team (You mentioned it, but it's a must)
Gundam 0080 (Buy the R1s though, the HK subs are terrible)
Zeta Gundam (My personal favorate...I reccomend it)
Char's Counterattack (Another must because it concludes things)
Gundam F-91(Fast paced movie, but cheap, and still quite good)
Victory Gundam (Great UC series that stands on it's own as well as with the rest)
Gundam X (An AU series...but has a significant ending for the Gundam saga as a whole, watch this after the other UCs)
Mildly Reccomended:
Gundam 0083 (Same as 0080 with bad subs, but watch it for the awesome battles, NOT the characters)
Double Zeta (Direct Sequal to Zeta...needed to resolve some plot points, and still good...but just not AS GOOD, however...if you get Zeta you should get this too)
G-Gundam (It's good...actually, once you get beyond the "Super Robot" Cliches, this is a good series at it's core)
Turn A (This deserves more then a "mild reccomendation", but I believe it should be the last Gundam series a fan sees for plot reasons)
SEED (Good series...not the greatest, but it has good charcters, and a few great episodes *cough*35*cough*)
Not highly reccomended:
G-Saviour (I admit I don't loathe it like some, but don't see it unless you're bored, it's not to much.)
Wing (Heh...Too late I guess, but the fact is that Wing is NOT what real Gundam series should be about. See it for the funny and ultra unrealistic things the main pilots do...not for "the best Gundam series of them all")
That about sums up my view on this.
