Rach Smith's Notes & Nuggets

Comedy series I've watched over and over (and over)

note : tv Added June 4, 2024

I love a good comedy series. It's my comfort television. These are my favourites over the years.

90s

We only had free-to-air TV at our house, so it was slim pickings from the four channels available to us. I was always happy to watch a re-run of these shows though.

The Simpsons
The Nanny
Keeping Up Appearances
Fawlty Towers (my dad owned the VHS tapes)

2000s

I was watching more Reality TV and crime shows in this decade, but there were a few DVD box-sets that my housemates and I would watch over and over.

Seinfeld
Kath & Kim
The Mighty Boosh

2010s

We got streaming platforms! And access to shows that had only been on cable previously.

The Office (US)
Parks and Recreation
Peep Show
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

2020s

I haven't had a series reach "watch several times" status. I did enjoy Schitt's Creek, but I've only watched it once. I think its due for a rewatch soon.

    I'm always curious about what people re-watch all the time. For me:

    • The Simpsons (less so now but watched it over and over in the past)
    • UK Office
    • Larry Sanders Show
    • The Thick of It
    • It's Always Sunny
    • Alan Partridge (any of the shows)
    • Curb

  • Kevin Spencer

    Some great shows on this list! My goodness, The Nanny. Fran Drescher was so good! Schitt’s Creek is pretty great. I do recommend a rewatch.

    For a more recent comedy I've been loving rewatching What We Do in The Shadows's first few seasons. We've caught lots of little details.
