Last 10 years? Here are a couple ideas. (This is a collaborative effort by the way by my wife and I.)
Comic/graphic novel wise -- Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson's Transmetropolitain, which began in 1997 and ran until 2002 or so.
Novels: Richard Morgan - Altered Carbon
George R. R. Martin - A Storm of Swords if you want one novel, the entire Song of Ice and Fire series (which actually began in 1996) if you want a larger work.
Tim Powers - Declare
Possibly River of Gods by Ian McDonald.
Guy Gavriel Kay's The Lions of Al-Rassan falls just outside the 10 year limit, but will likely endure.
TV: At least the first season and a half of Battlestar Galactica.
Buffy.
If we move outside the 10 year limit, the books I will always put right up are Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny and A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter Miller, Jr.
