As long as it is for educational purposes, you can use YouTube content as far as I know. However, you say you wanna use a TV series so that might cause some problems if you do it without permission from the TV channel . I suggest you to do not go that way and try to find another possible solution.

It's true that there are some exemptions for "fair use" of copyrighted material for educational purposes, but there are details to be aware of and rules to follow. There is no difference between a TV series and general YouTube content in terms of requiring permission (or not, if it's fair use), they are both copyrighted.

You are more likely to get away with any copyright infringement of some random youtuber, than a commercial TV show, but only because the latter has a much greater economic interest, and money to pay lawyers to stop you.
