Both are terrible when too thick.
The worst is when someone has a perfect command of English grammar with a very rich vocabulary but can't refrain from pronouncing 'v' for 'w' and 'z' for 'th'.
It inspires me to murderous intents.

On the other hand, a clean French and/or German accent, with a sober and well definite prosody, albeit with somewhat less diphtonguized vowels, is a pleasure to the ears and generally ends up being more readily understandable than Cambridge/Oxford/BBC English. I always had a feeling that's the way High English was and had to be pronounced just after the Great Vowel Shift — in Shakespearian times.

Hmm, I don't really have a preference between these two choices.

I have a lot of exposure to French accents as I live in the sixth largest French speaking city in the world due to the 400,000 French citizens living here.

I'm not as familiar with hearing German accents as I am with French accents, so I can't comment too much on German accents.

I'll just vote for 'both in equal measure,' as I don't like to give preference to one over the other.

Both are interesting and unique in their own ways... but Dutch would be my first choice.

The Dutch have one of the highest English proficiency rates of non-native English speakers in the world, and I can understand them very well, whereas French accents can be a bit trickier to understand sometimes, depending on which region of France they're from. With that said, I like French accents though.
