"Dune" by Frank Herbert
"Manifold" by Stephen Baxter
"The Godhead Trilogy" by James Morrow
"Mars Trilogy" by Kim Stanley Robinson
"Paratwa Saga" by Christopher Hinz

I might be missing some, but I think that's a good start.

What are everyone else's favorite SF series (I prefer series over one-shot novels)?

Yikes, your list is close to mine! I would add the Miles Vorkosigan series by Bujold McMaster and LeGuin's Orsinian (?) stories including The Left Hand of Darkness. I also adored Xenogenesis by Octavia Butler and The Snow Queen series by Joan Vinge. I also think the Ender series by Card, Uplift by David Brin and Hyperion by Simmons deserve a recommendation.

I've been thinking of starting to read "Dune", but is it really that good?

The Dune series is one of the better series on my list, IMO.

It's a great continual read; I've read it 5-6 times and picked up new things each time. It's so in-depth and constantly blows my mind away.

I'd recommend picking up any of those books/series at your local used book store.
