You can include the ones you are reading as well. As well as some you have started but abandoned.

Mine:

One Piece (watched the entire anime up to Dressrosa and read the manga of Thriller Bark, Marineford and Dressrosa)

Hunter x Hunter (watched the 1999 anime [until its end] and have read just the Hunter Exams arc)

Slam Dunk (read the manga)

Berserk (read the manga)

Death Note (both the anime and the manga)

That's kind of a loaded question. I don't have a MAL and I don't want to type for an hour.

I'm a huge gundam fan, pretty much mecha in general.

If it's been popular in the last 20 years I've probably at least watched or read some of it.

I watched a lot. As a child on a channel showing anime in the morning/after-noon time. Every-Day after school.

One-Piece

Yu-Gi-Oh! (GX/5D's & a bit of Zexal)
Kamikaze-Kaitou Jeanne (would have probably never admitted that in school to my friends though. Good series, though IIRC) :troll2 :troll2 :troll2
Captain-Tsubasa (the Road to 2002 one is the one I remember. They might have aired the other series too, but I can't remember because I was too young)
Detective-Conan
InuYasha
Naruto
Do-Re-Mi (another series I wouldn't haves admitted to watching. :troll2 :troll2 :troll2 )
PokéMon
DigiMon (Adventure 02, Tamers, Frontier)
Duel-Masters (never understood the rules though and I can't really remember the series)

Bey-Blade :troll2 :troll2 :troll2

Probably other stuff too, that I can't remember right-now. Maybe I watched Sailor-Moon too. I know I heard the name before. Also watching Monster right-now.

Is Bey-Blade good, Hure?
I haven't re-watched the show, but I think it was a glorified commercial (if I remember). I wasted money on that. Can't believe that. Same with Yu-Gi-Oh!, though. You can watch the first episode and see for yourself. There's obviously the obligatory "kewl"/distant from the crew rival character that's there with a lot of these shows. Like Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh! or Vegeta from DragonBall or Sasuke from Naruto. I think that was Kai.

Basically, if the series written down there and until 2008, I probably watched the series.

If I were to list them all, I'd be listing over 100 different series, so I'll just mention a few I find comparable to DB that haven't been mentioned in this thread yet.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - Helped shape the landscape of modern Shonen as much as DB did, heavily inspiring more strategic Shonen such as Hunter X Hunter.

Kinnikuman - Can be considered the series that laid the foundations of traditional Shonen storytelling before DB popularised such conventions even further, to an extent I find it hard to imagine Toriyama wasn't in some way inspired by Kinnikuman. After all, it did such story lines as a super strong alien protagonist, constantly stronger foes, transition from comedy to battles and even a power level system long before DB even began.

Yu Yu Hakusho - Many of it's concepts were obviously inspired by DB once it transitioned fully into a battle Shonen, especially towards the end of the Black Chapter Arc. I'd say it's slightly better than DB due to employing better strategy/ability usage and having more complexity in it's villains, though the Three Kings Arc is a far worse final arc than the Boo Arc. It can be considered dated due to Hunter X Hunter pulling off it's best concepts far better, though it's at least infinitely better than the ripoff of it known as Bleach.

Saint Seiya - Both were extremely popular Shonen series in the 80s with roots in some ancient culture (China's Journey to the West for DB and Greek Mythology for SS). I'd say Dragon Ball is better though since Saint Seiya's plot can be pretty generic at times, with the main appeal having more to do with the mythology and character designs.

Toriko - Pretty obvious how much inspiration it took from DB with Toriko's attire and many of the energy attacks in the series. Dragon Ball is overall better than it though, considering DB at least had some good points after it's timeskip into DBZ. Can't really recommend the series now.
