Shiiiiiiiiiiit
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.
Taskmaster
Uk, new Zealand, Australian, on repeat forever and ever. Even throw some of the Scandinavian versions on when I'm feeling focused enough for subtitles

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.
Not so much any more, but I used to watch Monty Python's Flying Circus any time it was on.
The Good Place
I watch Friends when I just want to laugh. When I want more serious stuff I watch HIMYM. God I love those shows.
The Boondocks
Chappelle's Show
Random Sopranos/Wire episodes
Da Ali G Show
Check it out! With Dr. Steve Brule
Welcome to the NHK (some random older anime I just seem to always relate to a lot.)

Clone High
People say all if the bullshit in the world started with Harambe
I say it's because we never got a Clone High season 2

Xavier: Renegade Angel
The dialog moves so fast that it always feels fresh and enjoyable.

I rewatch a lot of things that I enjoy but in recent years, shows that I've seen multiple times the most for various reasons like watching again with someone else are: iZombie, Doom Patrol and Fringe.
An Idiot Abroad
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Community
Trackers
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.

Frasier and to a lesser extent Cheers.
