I've updated the hashihime TV schedule calendar:1. to put all shows in the order they appear each day (first showing only)
2. with working links to their homepages, and
3. sadly, to remove Karin, which has finished its entertaining run. Yahagi Sayuri saikou!
The Simoun characters' faces and names page has been updated to include characters introduced up to episode 7.
The Saiunkoku characters' faces and names page has been updated to include characters introduced up to episode 6.
Halfway into the spring season, I find myself continuing to admire Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu and Simoun above all others. Simoun just gets better and better. I found my chest heavy with emotion through episodes 6 and 7. SHnY is, perhaps with the exception of episode 6, maintaining its incredible quality. 
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni is growing in my esteem. And so is Strawberry Panic, which is not an ambitious show, but is providing entertaining light shoujo-ai, playing ironic but emotion-filled changes on romance riffs created in Marimite, Oniisama-e, and Utena -- with even a touch of Kannazuki no Miko (for better or worse) in episode 7. Saiunkoku and Westwitch continue to be enthralling, both with such wonderful heroines -- especially Saiunkoku.
Joshi Kousei, on the other hand, is dropping out of even my "guilty-pleasure" list. This is not a great condemnation, however, since I have dropped the highly popular Utawarerumono, too. My time is limited, and I am even just storing up episodes of Nana to watch later. It deserves real attention.
However, I still seem to find time to catch Kirarin Revolution. It is a show for young teen girls, shown at 6 p.m. Friday evenings. It doesn't really break any new ground, and has a quite inept star voice actress (although she is getting better). But except maybe for episode 5, it has been consistently entertaining, heartwarming, even inspiring -- at least for someone as insipid as myself.

I heavily agree with you on most of these shows. Good Witch of the West and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni are just pure brilliance, and Saiunkoku also continues to amaze me.
I've also just seen the third episode of Simoun, and you're right. It indeed keeps getting better and better. At the first episode, I had a grudge against the main character, though that's now completely gone. I'll be looking forward to the sixth episode because of this post now. ^_^
