Youtube Star Trek in a particular way

Okay, so in one of the Star Trek threads in D&D, someone linked to a page on Youtube.

It was official. I can't remember for what network though, either Paramount or CBS or Viacom or something.

Thing is, what they'd done was posted every episode of The Original Series legally for free on Youtube.

Thing is, they'd allowed you to view the episodes in a long list with an interface I'd never seen on Youtube before. There were no images, just a list of titles only, in Airdate order (starting with "The Man Trap) with a selection at the top to toggle between the three seasons.

Well I was an idiot who deleted the bookmark.

I've been cruising around youtube, and I've yet to locate the interface again, and I can't find the original post in D&D. Youtube HAS an official CBS site that has a bunch of episodes up, but they appear out of any kind of order, (Charlie X is the first ep for some odd reason) and don't use the kind of interface I described.

So, am I going insane? Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? Can anyone link me to it? I have a friend who wants to start watching the 60s series after the movie, and this is the best way I think I can present it to her.

    I know Google-Fu. (WHOA!!!)

    Actually, it was bit difficult to find that page, since most searches on Google and Youtube will bring up discussion about the new movie, rather than the original series. Still, happy viewing!

    To find it with the Google Search, just search for "star trek full episodes youtube". It was the 2nd link.

    FYI you can also watch these on Netflix. Not sure if that works in Canada or not, though.

    Extremely doubtful. You have to sign up to get access to instant streaming, and to sign up you have to give them a US shipping address and a credit card number. They appear to have no options for Canadian customers at this time, which is why I'm a zip.ca customer. It's basically Netflix for Canadians, but I don't think they have streaming currently.

    I still can blame the website... Youtube could have said "Make it available to everyone or host it else where".

    And yeah Hulus annoying for that too but atleast they were straight up from the get go. Ive never been able to use Hulu. Ive never seen something I couldnt watch on youtube before today.

    *edit* and yeah netflix is not available in canada.

    Why is there region locking on internet content? I thought it was THE INTERNET. Meaning you could see anything that was on the internet anywhere in the world.

    Is there any way around region locking? Between this and Hulu I've become more and more angry.
