The Search for King Arthur
The UnXplained: Season 3, Episode 19

King Arthur, England's first pop culture superhero; his exploits inspired blockbuster movies and television series like Middle Earth, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones and Star Wars; the significant impact the Arthurian legend has had on Western culture.

The show's main page is at https://www.history.com/shows/the-unxplained. According to the site,, episodes stream the day after their tv launch, but I'm not positive that is correct. (Also, Amazon lists the current season as "Season 4"; I'm unclear which is correct.)
