The expanse is top tier tv. Not sure how it wasn't more popular. Community is gonna go down as one of the classics

I watch too much tv:

Ted Lasso

The Good Place

Parks and Rec

The Office

Brooklyn 99

Northern Exposure

Friends

Schitt’s Creek

Sherlock

Monty Python’s Flying Circus

Fawlty Towers

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

This tells me I need to watch Northern Exposure, Schitt’s Creek, and Fawlty Towers.

And that you need to watch 30 Rock, Community, Scrubs, and Arrested Development.

Aah! I knew I forgot some! Excellent list!

[–] JoeTheSane 2 points 10 hours ago

Oh, formatting, no….

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

It seems that if you watched all of Mr. Robot, you cannot stop rewatching it (I finished my 4th rewatch...)

[–] TheOneAndOnly 4 points 9 hours ago

Parks and Rec, and Letterkenny, for me. Two of my absolutely most favorite shows. Both are ridiculous in the own way, but overall uplifting and positive.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 hours ago

Babylon 5.

Every time I watch it I’m stunned at how relevant it still is.

Monkey Magic

Any of the first 39 of the 52 episodes, any time, any year.

All time classic!

Lost track of how many times I've looped Seinfeld.

I've rewatched Haven several times. I love everything about it, the characters, the acting, the writing, the music, and the overall vibe. It somehow manages to be tragic, terrifying, and wholesome, all at once.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 day ago

Bob’s Burgers

I like how every single character is incredibly weird in at least one way, but their weirdness is usually a source of joy and hardly ever used as the butt of a joke.

Surprised no one’s brought up Futurama yet.

Unpopular Opinion: The endless reboots killed it for me.

"Gravity Falls"! Great to watch with the kids, too. (:

[–] artichokecustard 4 points 17 hours ago

Spaced from Simon Pegg and Friends is probably the series i have rewatched the most, was just going to watch it again this week with a friend, it's been a couple years, but it always is good

[–] sanguinepar 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Arrested Development, Always Sunny, and Archer for me. Always reliable when you just want half an hour of laughs. Although I do then tend to get drawn into yet another full rewatch.

Many good series mentioned, I want to add: Community

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Arrested Development has such intricate humor that it takes multiple passes to absorb it all. For some jokes, the punchline for the set-up doesn’t come until some episodes—or even seasons—later. Just the first three seasons, though. Season 4 & 5 were made years later and aren’t the same.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Seinfeld is a more "family friendly" option.

But Curb Your Enthusiasm can be put on an endless loop, and I'd still laugh my ass off at every episode.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Red Dwarf

Monty Pythons Flying Circus

IT Crowd

Mr. Robot

Venture Bros

Ken Burns' Baseball

Firefly

[–] [email protected] 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

It’s a gorram shame how few Firefly episodes there are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

Agree, but also think it might kind of be a part of what makes it great. Didn't go so long to get ruined. Gave us just enough to love it and imagine what could have been. Everyone gets to have their own fantasies of where it might have gone next.

Hmm as a gen Z do I rewatch stargate or try mash?

[–] andrewta 2 points 10 hours ago

Good question : sadly it's flip a coin and watch one... Sorry you'll have to burn the other one

[–] [email protected] 4 points 19 hours ago

  2. All of Star Trek, thanks H&I channel.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

Star Trek, the next generation and Star Trek deep space nine. Star Trek Voyager is pretty rewatchable too.
