Futurama. I’ve seen it thousands of times. That’s not an exaggeration.
I really should get around to re-watching Futurama. I often say Professor Farnsworth's 'Good news, everyone!' to myself :-)
You won’t regret it!
Futurama is my comfort show. The wet humor gets me everytime
This is my go-to. I have the old DVDs ripped onto my Plex server so that I can hit shuffle on all the old seasons and just watch episodes at random.
The Simpsons. Pick your favourite seasons or watch them all, you can’t go wrong
Band of Brothers
It's an annual thing for me
Mythbusters
How its made
Haven't seen these as alternate options
Surprised no one’s brought up Futurama yet.
Unpopular Opinion: The endless reboots killed it for me.
I dont see them as endless reboots i see them as repeated assaination attempts.
This is a good analysis of the shows life cycle where its pretty clear the show was fucked over repeatedly by the networks hosting it and its just refused to die. A case of when fans love something by execs dont.

I'm surprised I don't see Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek Next Generation here yet.
I feel like I’ll get roasted but, maybe Family Guy. I always understand new references and catch new jokes each rewatch
Seinfeld for me.
Closely followed by IT Crowd
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.
+1 for arrested development. Took me until season 3 to realize the next episode previews were fake
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.

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.
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
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.

The expanse is top tier tv. Not sure how it wasn't more popular. Community is gonna go down as one of the classics
The Expanse may be the best bit of sci-fi I have ever had the joy to watch and read.

Babylon 5.
Every time I watch it I’m stunned at how relevant it still is.
I sooo wanted to rewatch that. But I just cannot get past the special effects these days. I thought it was great when it was on, now it's unwatchable for me. It's like, Playstation 1 cutscenes: the show.

Black Books
"Gravity Falls"! Great to watch with the kids, too. (:
I've definitely re-watched old Adult Swim stuff. Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Sealab 2021 in particular. (I need to include Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law in that mix)

Star Trek, the next generation and Star Trek deep space nine. Star Trek Voyager is pretty rewatchable too.
Extreme elimination challenge.
Doesn't matter the episode or if you join half way into an episode, still a silly watch
Many good series mentioned, I want to add: Community
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
