Try a video rental shop catering to the Japanese-speaking community;
they will have off-the-air recordings of many of his television shows.
The rental shops near me also have not only _A Scene at the Sea_
(_Ano Natsu, Ichiban Shizukana Umi_) but a number of older television
dramas in which Kitano worked as an actor (such as _Iesu no Hakobune_
and _Keiji Yoroshiku_) as well.
Hope this helps.
