TNG, Voyager and DS9.
Gotta finish off with Enterprise, it has been a long road.
Underrated take. The true end of the TNG era of shows.
(not era of time, obviously)

Futurama.
I put it on to fall asleep. I'm out before the episode ends. A downside is that I've seen the start of so many episodes, but rarely the end.

Band of Brothers once per year, without fail. Curahee!
Oh, man. Fantastic show, but I find it really hard to watch because I know it's so damn accurate.
I admire your commitment, it should be in high school history classes. It shows better than anything I've ever watched, how hellish it was for everyone.
The D-day beaches, holy hell.
They did a great job of being even handed, and the final episode where the general is addressing his men was so well done, it's very moving.

I’m dating myself:
- Hogans Heroes
- Mission: Impossible (the TV series from the 60’s & 70’s, not the movie franchise that’s just a Tom Cruise adrenaline fantasy)

The Wire and Luther. Can you tell I love Idris Elba?
Star Trek: TNG, VOY, DS9
SG1, ALL 3 series. some law and order and house. 2000s the golden era of shows. and also TREK shows, not the crappy nutrek(too much kurtzman, jj abrams meddling). ISAIP (S1-12 only), 13+ seasons were just terrible and ionly fan service with cringey skits. the animated nutrek is much better than the 3 live series.
SPN 1-5, by kripke, 6+ and they made to fanfiction and made it homoerotic because the fans are fantasizing about the characthers.

Usually, it's Parks and Rec, The Office, Scrubs, and IASIP. But I have gotten sick of those after watching most of them a dozen plus times, so now it's Community, Zoeys Playlist, and Cougar Town until I get sick of them too

Welcome to the NHK (some random older anime I just seem to always relate to a lot.)
Not really "again and again" but the only show I've watched twice is The Good Place. Maybe I should go for a third time, it was really good.
It's always sunny in Philadelphia, Seinfeld, Community, How I met your mother, Psych, Classic Trek (TNG,DS9,VOY,ENT), Firefly, Bones.
Mostly just as background noise when doing stuff. Doesn't absorb me like a podcast or audio book might since it's old information and doesn't amp me up like music does.

90's Trek is my go too comfort food. Especially TNG and Voyager. Less so Enterprise. And I never got into DS9 at all (fight me). When I'm looking for a random episode to watch in the background, it's usually one of those.
-
Comedy-wise, Community, Night Court (the original), The IT Crowd, The Office, Futurama, all fill the same role as Star Trek above.
-
Less often, but still on a pretty regular rotation, 80's shows like Quantum Leap, Simon & Simon, MacGuyver, Knight Rider. Just dumb shows where they have a one hour adventure and then have a new one the next week; where you don't have to stress about watching every damn episode because the entire season is one big plotline.

NCIS, Bones, Castle
Bob's Burgers gets rewatched a lot. We also do a full rewatch of Taskmaster before each new series begins (UK and NZ versions) though that tradition may have to end now that the UK version is nearing 20 series.
There are also a number of UK panel shows that we keep looping through as background noise. Hypothetical, QI, WILTY, selected Buzzcocks episodes, Guessable, Alan Davies: Untitled, Big Fat Quiz, Outsiders.
