The Great Adventure (1963)
Timely then and would be timely now

One of the greatest shows ever on television. It stimulated my interest in history which has continued unabated to this day. Unfortunately the show was cursed with the Friday night "Death Time Slot" of either 7-8 or 8-9, I forget precisely which.
This is a series which should be not only published in DVD format, but brought back with new stories. Today, people seem to favor a "warts and all" realism to their stories and that's OK too because some of those original shows had that realism however subtly it was done. I can't conceive of a commercial network doing such a thing today but perhaps PBS?
