James Earl Jones, or Patrick Stewart. Who wouldn't want one of them? Of course, how dramatic would Ron *Frakkin* Perlman make your life sound? "Breakfast... Breakfast never changes. Back before work, Toast was made, and immediatly after, the Cereal was brought out... But life keeps on going, and the day was started." Heh...
Oh good gods, that is a difficult question.
The obvious answers have, of course, already been stated: Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jones, Sean Connery, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Leonard Nemoy, etc.
Going a bit off the beaten path, I'd say Kristoffer Tabori in character as HK-47, (Observation: The meat-bag noted that his 'sandwich' was dry. Suggestion: Perhaps he could ring out his arm and produce a glass of water with which to wash it down.) the cast of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Kiefer Sutherland, Gary Oldman, William Shatner (As he... walked down the... street! he suddenly spotted....... his goal: the coffee. shop. where. he was to meet... his. friend?!..."), I believe Liam Neeson was mentioned but he deserves another, and finally Michael Caine.
I could go on, but I've gone and messed myself with enough words already.
EDIT: I FORGOT RON PERLMAN, PLEASE FORGIVE ME!

James Earl Jones, with mood music supplied by a Polyconductoral Orchestra with John Williams and Thomas Newman.

I'd probably have the narrator from Conan who also played Aku on Samurai Jack or the guy who did the narrations and tutorials on Little Big Planet (someone please remind me who that is).
Also, the narrator from Bard's Tale! It would be great to actually argue with the one narrating your story.
Trey Parker.
Just imagine yourself picking cereal when he starts narrating in Cartmans voice
"dude, DUDE! Don't go for raisin bran crunch! that's hippie food. get choko-bombs! Come on, get choko-bombs! COME OOOOOOONN! MOM, THE HIPPIE ISN'T GETTING THE CHOKO-BOMBS!"
"that's nice, pudding pop!"

Keith David [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_David], narrator of the Jazz television series, voice actor of the Arbiter in Halos 2 and 3, and voice actor of Captain Anderson in Mass Effect (and much more). Just enough of a gravelly voice to be a silky smooth narrator. This guy has won Emmys for his voice-overs. But all that would be nice yet moot if it weren't for the Jazz series. This is the first documentary series with a narrator I really paid attention to, so his performance informed my taste in narration.
