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!

[–] Stillhart@lemm.ee 14 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.

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

The office, parks and rec, firefly (that might be cheating since it's not that many episodes), game of thrones before it went of the rails.

South park and Its Always Sunny. Sunny is so good.

[–] GrappleHat@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

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

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 😝

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

I think that about covers it.

[–] agoramachina@sh.itjust.works 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

The Wire, Sopranos, theOffice and Seinfeld

Really surprised Seinfeld is not featured more in these comments.

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.

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

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

Band of Brothers

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

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

[–] UtiAnimi@lemmy.world 8 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.

Brooklyn 99, Babylon 5, Star Trek various series. We pick a series to watch while we eat dinner. Sometimes it’s a series we haven’t seen fully before (we may start Cheers soon), and sometimes it’s one we’ve seen multiple times (Avatar the Last Airbender, Star Wars Rebels, etc). It’s fun :)
