Honestly? Who has time to rewatch a series??

For me that’s Buffy and Babylon 5, both three times. I think Queen’s Gambit may beat them, but I’m not there yet.

I like horror theme. So I've watched Ash vs Evil Dead, The Exorcist S01, The Haunting of Hill Twice twice so far. Out of these Ash vs Evil Dead was the best on the repeat run, so I may watch it again at a later time.

Have you seen “Evil” or “From”? Both really great horror shows.

Definitely Psych. I think I’ve watched it 8 times at last count. Currently rewatching it again because my wife has only seen it once lol.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

I've seen the first 3 seasons of Community at least 6 times. The whole series maybe 3 times.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

TNG, Voyager, TBBT

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Futurama, How I Met Your Mother (as an aside, the sequel series is pretty good), Chuck, and Bob's Burgers.

Parks and Rec

Battlestar Galactica and Band of Brothers are basically annual binges for me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It's a tie with three full watches for these shows:

-MacGyver

-Stargate SG1

-The Wire

-Band of Brothers

-Generation Kill

-Blackadder

American Dad up to the point that Seth stopped writing for it and then I restart. It is one of my background noise shows. King of the Hill is the filler cartoon to not start the loop instantly.

Star Trek TNG and TOS for scifi

Oh and i watch Forensic Files enough that i can typically remember who did it within the intro. Similar to the original Law and Order.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Friends.

I saw it a gazillion times, I think I can quote whole episodes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Futurama, star trek: TNG, ds9, mash, the office

Trailer Park Boys. Something about that theme is so soothing

Buffy, The Sopranos and Succession are probably my most rewatched. And Friends was on TV constantly when I was growing up, I must’ve seen each episode at least 10 times.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Firefly, short (sadly) and never not fun

First 5 seasons of Supernatural, when they had a story to tell and not an IP to milk

Last 3~4 seasons of Deep Space Nine, after the focus shifted from the soap opera to the war

Fate/Zero and Unlimited Blade Works, often as familiar background noise when I'm not able to 100% pay attention, like a security blanket

Persona 5, faster than a replay of the game and the main character actually gets to talk

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

For me it’s Avatar the last airbender I just love how wholesome it is xD

BoJack Horseman, too many times to count by now

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

If I have the time and desire to sit in front of the TV (which is pretty rare): X-Files, Kids in the Hall, Justified, Doctor Who, TNG/DS9/VOY, Good Omens, and Arrested Development. I'm sure there are others but they're not coming to mind right now.

Any BBC production of Jane Austen's novels.

Who has time to rewatch a seriess??

I watch TV while eating only. That’s a bad habit I have. I don’t want to look for new shows while eating. I just replay the same shows I know are good.

If I start a new show and I like it, I will just just binge watch until the season finishes. I am too old to waste time like that so I don’t usually start a new show.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I think Scrubs is the only series I've watched twice, so that's the one and only.

I've watched individual episodes of other series again, but not systematically.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Scrubs, MASH, and Doctor Who

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Deep Space Nine. Not full re-watches, just going back to watch an episode or three.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Dateline, murder never gets old!

Plus the hosts... Dying old guy, disheveled divorced looking guy, and the fluzey blonde!

(Sarcasm but datelines a classic)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Arrested Development, Archer, Always Sunny, MST3K, Yes Minister/Prime Minister

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Friends, and the Office

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Babylon 5, Deep Space Nine.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Guilty pleasure one for me is burn notice. It's so over the top but so much style and coolness

The Last Kingdom.

I can't quite put my finger on it but the series really keeps me watching.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

The Mentalist…hands down.
