I don't remember ever even hearing of Newton's Apple until my son found a book about the show at the library one day, but my husband remembers watching this PBS science show as a child. It's a science show, but not zany like Bill Nye or Beakman. And now it's available online! They have a huge site filled with activity guides, experiment pages, science project ideas, and best of all, over 300 streaming video clips from the show. The show ran from 1983 to 1998, but all of the videos I looked at seemed to be from later years - they don't look too dated or old.
To get to the videos, just go to a category page and scroll through the lesson titles. Some have just a video, others just a lesson guide, while others have both. There's just one problem - for some reason, the sound only works in one side on these videos. (And someone else mentioned it, so I know that it's not just my computer.)
Enjoy!
