I missed so much the first time - the crimes could be complicated.
The draw for me though is the unique relationship between Sherlock and Joan. TV usually only serves up passion as the end all. This one is so different and mature.

23. Orphan Black and Big Bang Theory are the only series I've watched through more than 2 times
Tue Mar 10, 2026, 09:14 PM

And of course, I've seen every episode of Star Trek (TOS) multiple times over the years, most of them probably 4-5 times.

Young Sheldon, Game of Thrones, Peaky Blinders, and Sherlock Holmes (Benedict version) I've watched through twice.

Shows I've watched the whole series (once): Breaking Bad, Downton Abbey, Monk, The Closer, Major Crimes, Burn Notice, Castle, Bones, Elementary, Rizzoli & Isles, Grimm, Vampire Diaries, Seinfeld (but only saw ALL of them a couple years ago)

I've never watched the The West Wing (but plan to!), The Sopranos, The Wire, or Deadwood (but may eventually ). I've also only seen a couple L&O and NCIS and X-Files episodes, ever, same goes for Friends.

Come to think of it, I honestly barely watched TV from 1987-2007. The only things I watched often were South Park, Married w/Children, Simpsons, Seinfeld, and SNL.

I'm almost ready for another round of Downton Abbey.

You guys will think I'm crazy, but I've been catching many of the old Saturday Night Live shows from way back. I started getting interested last year during the 50th Anniversary. It doesn't matter what order you watch the old shows, and admittedly the quality is hit-or-miss.

and most of the Star Wars series (Kenobi, Book of Boba Fett, Andor), Supernatural (especially the first 5 seasons, many times), Sopranos, Treme, Downton Abbey, The Wire, Venture Bros and quite of few other animated ones from the old Adult Swim.

I like to revisit old friends and stories. It's comforting.

Add: forgot about the Brit shows. Are You Being Served, Faulty Towers, As Time Goes By, Black Adder...

Wed Mar 11, 2026, 01:08 AM
15 hrs ago

Doc Martin is a comedy/drama British series about a renown London vascular surgeon, Martin Ellingham, who develops a blood-phobia and can't operate any more. He takes a job as a general practitioner in the Cornish fishing village of Portwenn. Martin is cold, aloof, has a poor bedside manner and thinks the locals in Portwenn are stupid. Some of the locals are eccentric and the interaction of the and Martin's personality make for very funny situations.

Eureka is a scifi/comedy centering around US Marshal Jack Carter. Jack is taking his runaway daughter, Zoe, to his ex-wife in L.A.. On their way, their car is in an accident and they spend the day in Eureka in the Pacific Northwest. However, not all is as it seem in Eureka. Eureka was founded by the federal government where geniuses could work and live to advance scientific knowledge. While in the town, a little boy disappears and the geniuses in the town can't figure out where he is. Jack quickly solved the problem and found the boy safe. Impressed by Jack's actions, the head of the town contacts the US Marshal's office and Jack gets reassigned as the town's sheriff. Jack has average intelligence in a town of geniuses and soon Jack is called upon to handle a lot of problems the geniuses caused.

They did that with Ghosts, a copy of the original UK Ghosts.
