But that isn't the intended use case for YT? How are you expecting to watch a professionally produced TV show on YT for free? YT offers a catalogue of tv shows and films that you can purchase and watch on the site but I'm confused why you think you'd be able to search for a tv show and be presented with every episode nicely catalogued in order?
YT has always been focused on user generated content - however in recent years you will have noticed this shift toward more professional style videos from larger channels who can afford to employ a proper team |

YouTube has about as much commercials as the broadcast TV I watch (a lot of which is free and all of which is professionally produced) so I can’t see how YouTube could never have pro content. Their paid subscription also costs quite a bit so just having e.g recent news broadcasts there - which are already produced anyway - doesn’t seem impossible either. I don’t want to watch GoT I want to see a 2004 sitcom or yesterdays BBC news at 6…
BBC news has a page with recent clips - but that’s not a news broadcast. It’s not “TV” just like an rss feed with news studies isn’t a newspaper. TV news requires curation, not merely moving pictures with news.
