I've tried a few others, none of them really panned out.

+1 for Feedly. Transferring over was fast and painless. The real test will be when Google Reader shuts down and Feedly will have rely on their own back end sytem.

I made a video to help people switch from Google Reader to Feedly.

I had the same problem. I just want the headlines, so I can skim through them fast. This article off the Feedly blog should help solve that problem:

Tips for Google Reader users migrating to feedly


Click on the "gear" icon in the upper right to get into the settings. Under "Views," click on "Titles." That will give you the headline-only view similar to Google Reader. This screenshot should clear things up.
