In addition to Nick-at -Nite, TBS, TNT, etc., there are a few other possibilities:
One of the larger dealers available online is Shokus Video, which has been around for a long time. http://www.shokus.com/index.html.
http://www.classictelevision.com has links to fan sites, which can be helpful for specific series info and tapes.
http://www.hallvideo.com doesn't have a lot, but is good in TV action/adventure.
http://www.aentv.com/home/golden/goldtv.htm
is a streaming site with some good clips, and some things available to purchase.
http://www.hollywoodsattic.com/classctv.asp
has a really large collection of early television, including programs that were originally aired live.
Facets Video, http://www.facets.org, has a good TV catalog, too. They do mail order rentals, as well as sales.
Ebay, http://www.ebay.com, has come through for me for weird anecdotal stuff, and Amazon.com, http://www.amazon.com, can be good too.
The Museum of Broadcast Communication in Chicago, http://www.mbcnet.org/, has a great video collection, but like most museums and archives it is only available for use on-site.
hope this helps,
