Melancholy Baby
For Wonderduck, I'll explain briefly: Episode one of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is actually episode zero, although it comes chronologically well after episode two, which is the real episode one. Episode three is thus episode two, episode four is episode seven, and, uh, so on.

I did watch episode 2 episode 1 last night. Pretty good! She's an odd duck.

"Odd duck" is one way to put
"she's totally insane, but fun to watch." I've seen all the
episodes that have been fansubbed so far (up through #5, which, oddly,
is actually the fifth episode). The original author of the novels
has to be given a lot of credit for the whackiness, but the
presentation is the anime writers at work, and they are no slouches
either.

Wait, check that... I went back to my blog, saw your comments and then
followed up by listening to each of the previews and listing what Kyon
and Haruhi say. To my surprise, Kyon's count is inconsistant
also. There should be an episode in the middle of the
conversation with Yuki, per his count.
Also, having Kyon be the narrator has kind of obscured this point, but have you noticed that the "normal human" is the only major character for whom we do not have a full name? Not even a family or given name--Kyon is just his nickname. I have to wonder if that's significant? With this bunch, it could just be a red herring too.

The whole show is an exercise in messing with the viewer's head, which would be really annoying if it wasn't so brilliantly done.
It's this season's Kamichu. Not that the two shows are at all similar, just in terms of originality and superb production values.
