What is your source?  If you're starting from old home videos, quality will never be better, it'll actually be worse (going from analog to digital always loses quality).

Well josetann comment is highly debatable since quality is in the eye of the beholder.

If it is vhs...you could make it look good after ALOT of filter. I captured bob the builder from vhs (they were not on dvd at the time) and filtered it to he11 and back...actually to me looked better than off the tape.  However i had to make the picture alittle more tinted to dissolve ALOT of noise...and saturate the colors a tiny bit...but all in all i was very happy.

Try vdub's filters first..there is ALOT of them and ALOT of them are good...if not the best.

Of course we would have to know the source to help you any farther.  If it's from a DV cam then check your cam settings...if it happens during import the video from some device to your pc try different software.
