This thread is dedicated to old TV episodes, movies, documentaries, etc. that are available on YouTube. For the sake of a dividing line, basically anything from the 20th Century so no later than December 31, 2000.

This is from 1984 and is an episode of something I used to watch every week as a kid called The Southern Sportsman.

 
Going with some pro wrestling for this one. This is an episode of NWA Pro Wrestling, the artist formerly known as Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling. This episode's become notable over the years for the main event in which Barry Windham and Ron Garvin defended the NWA United States Tag Team Championship against the Midnight Express and the fallout from the end of that bout.

 
From 1976, this is a standard 2 part episode of Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, featuring Diedre Hall as the former and Judy Strangis as the latter. Hall would gain fame later on as Marlena on Days of Our Lives. Norman Alden is Frank and also provides the voice of Aquaman in the Super Friends cartoons. This was a Kroft joint that only lasted 1 season, but then again it only needed 1.

 
In 1965, CBS aired a show called Honey West starring Anne Francis who plays the titular role. She was introduced in an episode of Burke's Law and given her own series which would last 1 season. 30 episodes in all and this is the first.

 
He said titular.

I'm reminded of a TV show that aired on ABC in 1969 called Turn-On. It lasted 1 episode and in some places less than 1 episode as other stations either killed it halfway through or in the case of some West Coast outlets decided against airing it altogether. One of their running gags for the 30 minutes of its existence was to go for as much innuendo as possible including the word "titular" being used with a woman on screen.

I keep hoping someone makes it available to view online just so I can witness the train wreck myself, but it's 1969 and recording TV wasn't as available a thing back then.
