Whats the most rewatchable TV series of all time?

That's an interesting idea. Thank you
Of course! I hope you find a way to enjoy Who. It is a lovely universe. The other idea would be to look into Big Finish audio---they do a lot of interesting Who stuff.

Red Dwarf
Monty Pythons Flying Circus
IT Crowd
Mr. Robot

Surprised no one’s brought up Futurama yet.
The Fox era was great. But the Comedy Central and Hulu seasons are subpar.
-
Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Except for the last season. There are some lines that really feel like the writers talking to themselves about how they painted themselves into a corner.

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.

Many good series mentioned, I want to add: Community

Painted into what corner? Seven was always supposed to be the final season, and included a bunch of things that only made real sense big picture if you knew about the Buffy universe comics, like the scythe. The Season 8 etc. comics are so out there that they were never intended for actual production.
Season 6 was the real klunker because they had shifted from WB to UPN, so production after an epic season 5 had lots of new staff, so it ended up in a lot of uninspired drudgery, monster of the week blah, plus Buffy has to work now and that sucks worse because you can't stake a mortgage and dust it.

I love that show, saw it plenty of times from start to finish...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Just did a rewatch with daughter. She wanted to watch after seeing the musical episode. Still stands up in my opinion even though we know Joss and some of the cast weren't perfect.
The Season 6 rapey tech bros were still a very hard watch and skipped an episode or two in that season but hard not to see it as a bit prescient - it was before Gamergate and the right wing radicalisation of young men online. Should have paid more attention. It went a bit over my head first time.
Working through Angel now. Will see how that holds up. Has been a long time between watches. I kind of started House again though so ...
Wife can watch unlimited Supernatural and I think she might hold a record for rewatches of Voyager.
Ensemble comedies like UK Ghosts and Community seem popular for rewatching with family. I think that is probably a general theme along with animations. Less serious shows tend to do better I think. Psych and Monk are probably more likely to get a rewatch than a serious procedural.

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

Early 20 century comedy. Laurel and Hardy, Harold Lloyd, Marx Brothers, and all the rest.

*X-filesI have a hard time watching any sitcoms. I can do one watch through but then I feel like I know all the joeks already, which is weird, because that is not an issue with me for futurama for example. Have to agree about TNG

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.
Oh man, I haven’t rewatched Archer is ages. Now I need to

To me it's like seeing an old friend from younger years. You've both changed so things are different from the good ol' days, but it's still enjoyable to spend time with them.
Still better than most new adult animated shows

I was just about to comment Futurama! Really not sure what to think of the newer episodes though...
I think the last two seasons were very much hit or miss. Some really good eps but also some really awful ones.

The Office
My wife can watch the Office any time of day. It will be playing on the TV at the most random times.
