All right, here I can be pretty confident in my ordering.

(excluding the Ancien Régime because you can't compare a 1000-year period to 3 to 70-year ones)

Vichy Régime (1940-1944)
Restauration (1815-1830)
Directory (1795-1799)
July Monarchy (1830-1848)
Convention (1792-1795)
Empire (1804-1815)
Constitutional Monarchy (1789-1792)
Consulate (1799-1804)
Second Empire (1852-1870)
Second Republic (1848-1852)
Fourth Republic (1944-1958)
Fifth Republic (1958-present)
Third Republic (1870-1940)

Since the Revolution, I would say, from worst to best in a purely subjective manner:

-Vichy Regime
-Second Restauration
-First Restauration
-July Monarchy
-Second Empire
-Constitutional Monarchy (1789-92)
-Fourth Republic
-Second Republic
-Third Republic
-Provisory Government (1944-45)
-Directoire (1794-99)
-Fifth Republic
-Consulat (1799-1804)
-First Empire
-Convention (1792-94)

Yeah, I know Napoléon Ier was a dictator and all of that, but we were attacked by the entire continent! Those damn British...
