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.

-MacGyver

-Stargate SG1

-The Wire

-Band of Brothers

-Generation Kill

-Blackadder

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

[–] Xylinna@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Futurama, Venture Bros, South Park, and Archer.

BoJack Horseman, too many times to count by now

[–] Haldum96@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

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

[–] InigoMontoyota@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Ted Lasso. I need the joy.

TNG, Voyager, TBBT

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Such a hilarious show. I love how ridiculous it is.

[–] big_duck_energy@partizle.com 6 points 2 years ago

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

[–] DeadlineX@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years 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.

[–] Yazer@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The office. Probably 5x by now. Always great.

Mr. Robot

Mad Men

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

[–] Hello2JasonIsaacs@feddit.uk 5 points 2 years 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.

[–] Poob@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

Battlestar Galactica, Lost, Friends, and the Office

[–] Dio@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] godless@latte.isnot.coffee 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.

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.

[–] Blunon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

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.

[–] ScotinDub@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably early Simpsons up until something like season 10

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.

Both relatively short series

Buffy is the most watched, hands down.

Nowhere Man is another one I love to watch over and over again, it's only one season, but I haven't seen it as many times as Buffy. It's pretty dated, but it's a great premise, and really enjoyable.

[–] TheGreenGolem@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Friends.

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

[–] wcSyndrome@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

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

[–] harmonea@kbin.social 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

[–] olorin99@kbin.social 4 points 2 years 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.

[–] vd1n@lemmy.ml 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)

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

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