Well for starters youtube is not a legal copy so you can't use that andyou can't use an entire drama under the TEACH act even if you found a legal copy, basically you will have to try to find out who the owner is and if they will license it though older TV titles tend to be very difficult to track down
Lastly it is not public performance rights but streaming rights you would be looking for.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
