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 rewatch Futurama all the time. Super excited for the new season!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Futurama for sure. There's so much going on in every episode, it's easy to find new things (or things you just forgot) on rewatch.

Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

It's just so damn good.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Expertly written, great actors and consistent quality

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Finish Breaking Bad: "Well I suppose I should watch Better Call Saul."

Finished Better Call Saul: "Well I suppose I should watch Breaking Bad."

Rinse and repeat.

Bob's burgers is on in the background at my house quite a lot.

Same. There is a certain comfort I get from adult animated shows I can't get from anything else lol

Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Fawlty Towers, the IT Crowd, and (oddly) The Good Place.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Good Place was really, really good.

From Derek and his wind chimes to "the wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while."

The Lord of the Rings extended trilogy. It's so long it feels more like a modern miniseries than individual movies.

Futurama. Without a doubt.

[–] NSA_Server_04 12 points 1 year ago

Gravity falls, SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.

[–] DharkStare 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I regularly rewatch Star Trek, primarily TNG and Enterprise with the occasional DS9 or TOS episode.

TNG/DS9/Voyager.

But I Think You Should Leave is catching up fast.

[–] Jack_of_all_derps 11 points 1 year ago

The office, parks and rec, schitts Creek, letterkenny, always sunny, veep, and silicon valley.

I think that about covers it.

Chernobyl… I’ve rewatched it so many times my husband will ask me what I’m watching while he’s at work (I’m a SAHM) and when I don’t answer right away he knows I’ve got it on again πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚ can’t watch it when he’s home cause he’s sick of it now hahaha 😝

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Love, Death, Robots; Black Mirror; and The Good Place.

Each of those is comfort media for me in their own way.

Edit: Oh! And Star Trek, particularly TNG

[–] UtiAnimi 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Futurama, Scrubs but if it counts, then number 1 would be the first 6 or so seasons of The Simpsons.

I've watch scrubs and king of the hill clear through probably 20 time each. I have a hard time finding new shows I like.

I could watch nothing but Black Adder, Arrested Development and Eastbound and Down and be pretty happy about it.

Probably Twin Peaks. I think series 3 has now surpassed the prior classic series for me, which is something I wouldn't have thought possible.

The old Adult Swim series are fun to rewatch. Sealab 2021 and Aqua Teen still hold up!

Band of Brothers

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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.

The Black Adder. Seen it at least 5 or 6 times. Twice on TV when I was a kid.

Just writing this made me want to watch it again!

[–] notun 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Justified. It's like comfort food at this point.
