The first episode is the best of the four, but it rapidly goes downhill from there, with the last episode leaving a VAST hole for more episodes to come along....but they don't and I can't see them happening.

IIRC, that was due to the problems with censorship and low ratings. OVA covers only the first ~1.5 volumes out of 4.
Micharus:
Started watching "Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls" and so far I'm reasonably happy with it.
There is action, as in sword play/martial arts featuring cute girls and a guy who isn't a wuss when it comes to following his own moral code.
Also mixed in with that is....ECHHI and it's rather well done too.
I'm glad I got the BD version of this anime, even it is a pretty big torrent, coming in at 14.5 GB.
Nothing really worth censoring....yet, but there will be something eventually.
Cromartie High School is starting to be annoying.
Right now the only reason I can think of for me to keep watching it, is to see if it will get any more bizarre/strange than it already is.
I've watched up to episode 16. 10 more episodes to go, then I can at least say I have watched it.
I actually enjoyed "Excel Saga" more and that anime was pretty weird in spots.

wait, seriously, how the...
explain yourself.
...
okay, maybe after you drop/finish it.
now excuse me as i go on marathoning D.Gray-man(more like D.Gay-man).
Watching it for Lenalee, Allen is quite awesome himself though, except his seiyuu really murders his manliness so much he sounds gay.
not that she's bad, she just sounds so feminine.
no, i seriously am not suggesting you to watch this 103 episode anime. at least not yet.

Only 103 episodes huh?
If you check the "LIST" on the OP, you will see that I have "Those Obnoxious Aliens" to watch, which comes in at 196 episodes......
If I add "D.Gray Man" to the list, I'll probably end up watching it the same way I plan on watching TOA, in chunks, like maybe 12 eps at a time with another anime watched in between.
I hope to finish Cromartie High sometime in the next few days, then I will 'explain myself'. lol.
Micharus:
Cromartie High School is....different.
It is comedy, but comedy that left me feeling mostly 'meh'.
Granted there were parts that I did find funny, I'm pretty sure I had a grin on my face, but mostly I found the comedy too different to what I'm used to.
Apart from that it's not a bad anime.
The characters are well animated and the basic storyline is ok.
Kamiyama, our 'hero', ends up in Cromartie High School, a boys only school that has the reputation of having the worst delinquents in Tokyo attending it.
He meets up with Hayashida, a guy with a purple mohawk that seems to be constantly moving.
Along the way they meet up with some fairly strange characters, Freddie, who looks exactly like Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of 'Queen', from when he was at the top of his game, Mechazawa, who is a robot.
There is also a Gorilla, who at some points in the anime seems to be smarter than any other guy in the show.
Each episode is around 10 minutes long if you skip the OP and ED, so even with 26 episodes to watch it would be relatively easy to knock over the whole season in a short time, but I wouldn't recommend marathoning it.
One thing that you may find funny/annoying, is that certain characters have hair that moves. Constantly and in random patterns.
While Cromartie High School didn't do much for me, if you are looking for slightly offbeat comedy, it may be what you are looking for.
