At least the torrent sites will likely have all of these episodes somewhere. Piracy is the only way to ensure data permanence in the modern world probably by design.
I was going to say that - regarding my claim of them needing 'continued investments' to exist - but at least they are descentralized, which might help.-
It's a hard problem. But turning to librarians - the information cataloging experts - could be a start. A public-sector backed, librarian-implemented effort, based on blockchain technologies could perhaps work.-

Relying on piracy for data permanence cannot be a good idea...
Do you have a better idea?
