Could you show an example? Is a little hard to say anything when we don't know how it looks like. There are some rules for TV that maybe should not be forgotten. For example, never use too bright colors, especially red is dangerous. We always said, 90% of a color is maximum, over that it starts bleeding. And be aware that TV monitors have a much less quality than computer screens. Therefore don't use too fine elements, could start flickering otherwise.

ok, so we have the images now. Indeed, maybe some too high contrasts could be the problem. But can you describe a little more in detail what you mean with "awefull?" A little vague still.

Why not make a test sample, like 4 red cubes on a black background, with different amounts of color saturation. Transfer them to TV and see when they start to bleed, and other tests like that? That way, you can find the limits you need to set.

You need to desaturate your images if your are going to display them on a TV montitor. Photoshop and PSP both have filters which can desaturate your images to be NTSC and PAL safe.
