Well then there is no saving you.
Personally, for the 5 analogue channels:
C4 > BBC2 >> BBC1 >>>>>>>>>>> ITV1 > C5
C4 though has some terrible shit to go with it's awesome bits, so it is definately arguable that it be above BBC2.
And ITV would be last if it wasn't for their ability to grab some decent films (bond in particular) although they often fuck that up by putting a half-hour news in the middle of the fucking film!
American television.... well if we are talking broadcast channels (rather than American shows aired on British channels) then I don't think we get any here in the UK... there used to be ABC1 with it's idiotic advert system whereby there was a 5 minute break immediately after the show began, but (on Virgin Media at least) ABC1 doesn't seem to appear here anymore. Not that much on it was worth watching anyway.
If you are talking about particular American programs, then they do air on British TV too, and there are of couse some good ones such as Family Guy (well, the newer ones aren't as great) and the other cartoons, Frasier, Becker, Friends (generally watching 2-3 Amercan sitcoms means you have watched them all though, so I won't name others) Stargate and other good sci-fi stuff too.
