It's a mix of both seeing some screen shots and reading synopsis of what the series is about.

I'm in the same boat there. But if it really interests me by what it is about it gets moved to the top of the list

I will pretty much try anything and see if I like it within the first 2~3 episodes.

Although as a rule I go for Romance/School type stories as a first choice.

Summary. Though good music will usually get me to see some (or all) of it, that doesn't mean I liked it. I don't care who made it, and it can look as pretty as it wants, but if there's no story or character it's not interesting (exceptions: Last Exile and Satoshi Urushihara works, because they are just that pretty). Manga I might be more "brand" loyal (Kei Toume, Yua Kotegawa, Shin Takahashi, Kiyohiko Azuma, Milk Morinaga), but not with anime.

Of course, that's not to say I won't preview a lot. I even previewed KnJ because I found the actual story (manga; I only saw a few minutes of the anime) itself to be good, even if it was garbage due to the overloading on the pedophilia.
