The anime series can be ong or short, but i would prefer moderate and finished, i hate an unfinished story. i want it to have action, humor, and romance. gore and horror is okay too as long as the other three assets are in there. and no magical girl stuff, or mushy stuff, i am looking for something else. please help!

I've picked 3 very good series. These may be older, but they are all excellent examples of anime series: good stories, character development, action, humor, a little romance, a little gore, and great endings.
Full Metal Panic - a great older anime series. The anime is good, the character development and storey line are great. Good humor. It's the story of a relationship between a high school student and a teen age mercenary who operates a Mech. So it goes back and forth between the Mech action and high school situations. It's also got some very funny moments.
Cowboy Bebop - another classic series. The story of 3 disfunctional space bounty hunters, their relationship, and escapades. Truly likeable characters, funny, and an incredible ending.
Hellsing - the story of a secret, London based government organization that tracks down and kills ghouls and vampires. The main characters are an extremely powerful vampire and a police girl who is reluctantly converted to be a vampire.

I am just like you - I like action, humour and a bit of romance with no gore and horror.
Full Metal Panic - THE best series for what you're looking for, and is finished. The special Fumoffu series is great.
Get Backers - Another hilarious anime (in fact I want to watch it again right now), with a ton of humour and action, and lower on the romance, but it's still there.
Yu Yu Hakusho - Another good one with more action and humour, but not a lot of romance, but it's kinda there...
Ranma 1/2 - Good action, kind of weirdish story about a guy who transforms into a girl when splashed with cold water, but was a huge hit and what got me into loving anime. VERY long anime, tons to watch here, and has a good balance of action, humour and romance.
Fruits Basket is okay, it's unfinished (grr when will they come out with the finished series!!) but kind of twisted/fun. A bit on the girly side though, but I really enjoyed it nonetheless.
Oh my Goddess! (Ah Megami Sama) - Bigger on the romance, has a bit of action, quite some humour, may be better in manga format...

Full Metal Alchemist. it has the three things you ask for: action, humor, and romance. It's probably one of the best anime series, and it has a movie that should be watched after it (you will want to watch it to know what happens...). it is trully hooking!! it has about 50 - 53 episodes (dont remember exactly). it's sooo fun, and it has a little love story too (maybe you can consider it has 2 love stories.. depending on how you see it). i still dont know anyone who doesnt like/love this series, so i always recommend it. to both animeholics and simply fun searchers.
you might also like Slayers, or Evangelion. a hooking one is also Marmalade Boy, but that one is more like a sticky love story. it has 70 - 75 episodes, and a fast ending... well liking it or not depends on your taste.
in any case, my favourite is Full Metal Alchemist, and the one i recommend you;)

I would recommend Nana, Paradise Kiss, Sailor Moon, Kodocha or CardCaptors Sakura, but none of them have any action, though center on humor and romance. A good story with all three elements would be something more along the lines of Eureka Seven.

Try watching the Venus 5. It has a lot of action and romance as well. It is like the fantastic four only with five girls.
