here's two that I watched several years ago:

http://movies.netflix.com/Movie/The-Other-Holy-Land/70028080?trkid=496751

I remember one had Met. Kallistos (Ware) in it, but I can't remember which one.  And I think "The History of Orthodox Christianity" may be available on YouTube as well.

I never watched them live-streaming.  We got the DVDs.  Sorry, I didn't see that you were only looking for streaming.

Although not a documentary, I believe Ostrov is streaming.
