Definitely agree there. I'd say British documentaries in general are better, plus they've got David Attenborough on their side
In the case of anime I believe that its current air-time on American television at least is probably appropriate. What's mainly behind this is economics, anime is a distinctly Japanese creation and not all series can easily make the transition into the American market. The anime most likely to make the jump are ones aimed at younger boys as cartoons are associated with children in the US from my anecdotal observations.
