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 don't rewatch series very often, but every couple years I watch the British comedy Coupling again.

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

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.

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

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

Any BBC production of Jane Austen's novels.

Buffy for sure. I've watched it through several times.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Parks and Rec

PokΓ©mon first three seasons and Digimon's first seasons one and two.

I am rebellious and a bad ass, you need not tell me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

-MacGyver

-Stargate SG1

-The Wire

-Band of Brothers

-Generation Kill

-Blackadder

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

I watch IT crowd and derry girls over and over again

Both relatively short series

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 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] darwinu 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Friends, watched all 10 seasons at least 5 times in chronological order through streaming service. Watch any episode when it’s on live tv.

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 1 year ago

BoJack Horseman, too many times to count by now

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 1 year 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.

[–] TheOtherKundotron 5 points 1 year ago

Bob's burgers, It's always sunny in Philadelphia, What we do in shadows. They don't have complicated stories, they are funny and quite comfortable to watch while doing other things.

[–] coolcrowe 5 points 1 year ago

Mr. Robot

Mad Men

Trailer Park Boys. Something about that theme is so soothing

Friends.

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year 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.

  • Peep Show

[–] cmhickman358 4 points 1 year ago

A lot of mine have already been listed here, but the one I don't see yet is Red Dwarf, such a great show no matter how many times I see it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Friends, and the Office

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I usually end up with community playing in the background while I'm working on something else. No idea how many times I've rewatched it.

[–] Loce 4 points 1 year ago

Stargate SG-1, TNG, Friends, South Park...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Buffy and The Magicians.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

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