Father Ted. Full stop.

Yeah, there are some select few others, but they don't amuse and satisfy me as much as Father Ted. Plus, it makes me sad because it will never come back, but it's like a supergroup effort of pretty much all Irish comedians. It's just so darn close to perfect I could cry a river or two. While smiling and enjoying life. That's rare.

Then there's the original run of Red Dwarf, which fails to bore me. I'm still easily amused by Gervais' Extras, and I am still not completely bored with Hyperdrive, even though it at times feels like a remake of everything that worked between, say, Dark Star and Spaceballs.

Plus, methinks Miranda Hart is actually a good fit for Nick Frost, and she's actually quite funny in it.

Unless you are British you probably won't know this show, but I have watched Coupling's first 3 seasons more times than anyone ever really should.

Scrubs
Futurama
Mythbusters

And if this was 2 years ago I would have said Family Guy but I'm so tired of that show.

The three British seasons of The Inbetweeners I've watched at least 3 or 4 times.
I like to watch particular episodes that relate to something going on in my own life- for example, every time I have exams, I watch the exam episode.
It's just a really funny show that I can relate to more and more the further I get through high-school, hence the reason I find it so rewatchable.

Firefly, Star Trek TGN, Spaced, Black Books, Hercules/Xena.

Firefly wins though.
Black Books - little book of calm is epic.

Then there's the Grapes of Wrath one. That's one of my all-time favourite episodes of pretty much all TV series I've ever seen.

So many excellent scenes from that series. I love the one where Manny runs away, and phones Bernard from the phonebox. Cue dramatic conversation where he gets stung by a bee, puts his arm through the phonebox window before getting mugged by someone. :D

Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

After a while it just becomes really addicitive and I can't get myself to just watch one season. On more than one occassion I have said to myself 'right my study time is up, I can now relax a bit and watch Season 1 and 2 of Buffy' and ended up watching all the way up to the finally of Season Seven over a period of a few weeks.

For me, its House, Lie to Me, and best of all M*A*S*H. The last one is a timeless classic that I never get bored of. The secret was that it wasn't a sitcom. The jokes were there, but didn't rely on you knowing about the Korean War.

I can just watch that over and over again, it's so damn perfect.

But it also comes with a cost...

Fan fiction heals a little. I'm currently writing one with the crew in the Star Wars universe in the Old Republic time.

OT: The Simpsons because of the sheer number of episodes it's hard to get bored with it. And Futurama because it's just so damn awesome. "Mr. Peppy wouldn't do this in our sleep, he would not, could not, to a sheep."

Only Firefly gives true meaning to the phrase 'chain of command'.

Also, the Blue Suns in Mass Effect are one big Firefly reference. Seeing that in retrospect was awesome.

Mystery Science Theater 3000. You can pick up and watch any episode and laugh your ass off. Plus, they're all available online for free so you can't beat that :D I must have watched every episode about 4 times now and still go back for more

They made an American version...that was about as bad as you would expect. I could watch it a lot just for Jeff jokes "Jeffrey, you're shaking the caravan!", I can watch it even more just to look at Sarah Alexander...

For me, if Simon, Sorkin, or Milch created it it is worth rewatching.

Omar! Omar 's coming!

You want to tempt the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing? No. Then go outside turn around three times and spit.

Could you have been born, Richardson? And not egg-hatched as I've always assumed? Did your mother hover over you, snaggle-toothed and doting as you now hover over me?

Firefly, Hogan's Heroes and M*A*S*H it is for me. Yeh, shoot me, I love war comedies, and Firefly is just inevitable.

I'm going to take liberties with the phrase "TV series" and post a YouTube series, because I can. And it's getting a movie, so it gets bonus points, right?

Anyhow, Dick Figures. It's just so hilariously out there and I watch it over and over.

Classic!
