Are the champ pools typically this stale in the LCS?

I haven't been playing too long and have been watching the LCS for even less. Today it seemed as though I was seeing Azir, Gragas, Annie, Rek, Rumble and Kalista like every match. Is it always like this?

You forgot sivir, maokai, hecarim, gnar, kog'maw, cassiopeia, varus, alistar. And yes it's pretty much always like this. It's the meta and has proven to be the most successful.

The only times you will see something interesting to watch is when Faker, UoL, or Keane (team gravity) plays.

These are what are supposed to the best picks if you want to win the game. Top: Best: Mao'kai, Gnar (he's more popular in the Eastern regions though), Rumble, Hecarim, Ryze Good: Irelia, Vlad, Fizz, Yasuo, Ekko Jungle: Best: Gragas, Rek'sai Good: Lee Sin, Sejuani, Evelynn, Nunu, Ekko Mid: Best: Azir, LeBlanc, Kog'maw, Varus, Ekko Good: Fizz, Cassiopeia ADC: Best: Sivir, Kalista Good: Corki, Vayne, Lucian, and obviously Draven Support: Best: Alistar, Thresh, Nautilus Good: Janna, Annie, Morgana

LCS is always stale. if you want It to be phresh and exciting watch all regions. They all play so differently you forget how stale it is compared to just watching 1 region
