What holds up to re-watches?
I just, can’t imagine running out of tv shows??? I have probably 8 or so on my to-be-watched list, and the list only gets longer. I’ve watched 1 season each of 2 shows (Foundation S1 & Golden Compass S2) this YEAR. Oh and maybe Rings of Power was this year, too.
It happens pretty quickly for me. I usually watch a whole season in one sitting though. I absolutely will not watch a TV show unless it has multiple seasons for this reason.
30 Rock.
re-watching it now. Such a remarkably consistent show.
An an animation geek: Steven Universe, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Gravity Falls, Over The Garden Wall, Spectacular Spider-Man, Apple & Onion, Bob’s Burgers, and Ugly Americans are all shows I seem to go back to every year or two.
Otherwise, I feel like Arrested Development, Better Off Ted, Mr. Robot, Party Down, Psych, Santa Clarita Diet, Schitt’s Creek, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, We Are Lady Parts, and the first season of Twin Peaks are all great re-watches.
My list would get too long if I listed all the movies I think are worth rewatching, but Coraline is a fun one to come back to because they packed more detail into that movie than one person could pick up in over a dozen viewings. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is another awesome one to rewatch because it’s just pure fun.
I typically resort to reading when I run out of good shows to watch.
Ive watched sg-1 the most, for sure. Yet, I keep revisiting old favorites and rewatching in a cycle. Sopranos, the wire, star trek tng, ds9, mr robot, the shield, sons of anarchy, peaky blinders are some ive rewatched in the past 2 years. It has become more like a revolving door in the past few years rather than one certain favorite.
Im planning on binging the bear s1 and s2 when ive finished with s2 as I feel I missed some details that could be good during a rewatch.
@LeafyBirch SG-1 and Atlantis here, too. As Time Goes By. West Wing. Daria. Eerie, Indiana.
We’re currently re-watching Extraordinary Attorney Woo, and I think it’ll join the rotation.
Also Warehouse 13 and Eureka.
God I tried to rewatch eureka, I so dearly loved that show. I got the kids in front of the TV and I said this is a fantastic sci-fi series with all kinds of great high concept stuff you’re going to love it.
They did not, in fact, love it.
So internally I’m all screw you guys You don’t know what you’re missing I’m going to watch it.
I don’t remember the pilot being this long and slow, I’m just forgetting I’m sure I’ll pick up an episode two, I got a few minutes into episode 3 and just couldn’t.
The acting is shakier than I remember the effects don’t hold up. I have to stop before I ruined my memory of loving it. I miss the show so much Henry was a badass.
Eureka is the first that comes to mind. No matter how many times I watch it, it’s still awesome. Jurassic park (like the original couple/few) is the same.

Frasier - I sleep to this and its 11 season have held up very well over the years
Futurama - I often sleep to this, too
King of the Hill - My first venture into a life of piracy occurred when Netflix first stopped streaming this. RIP Johnny Hardwick
The Office - It’s The Office. If you get it, you get it.
Home Movies - H. John Benjamin’s best character will always be McGirk
InuYasha (dubbed) - Your first anime obsession will always have a place in your replays
Family Matters (Urkel) - The 2nd - Fifth seasons are delightfully funny, and they always make me feel like a kid again
Bob’s Burgers - If I don’t know what to watch, I’ll just turn on the Belchers and things just sort of work out for themselves
Bewitched - I used to watch this as a kid with my mother who used to watch this as a kid with her mother. Not all the episodes hold up perfectly, but it’s still extremely entertaining
Brooklyn 9-9 - Never gets old for me. It’s playing in front of me right now!
Scrubs
The Office, Parks and Rec & Brooklyn 99 in no particular order
Depends on my mood but probably - Bojack, Mr. Robot, Parks & Rec, Community, Trailer Park Boys or Brooklyn 99.
