12 Most Rewatchable TV Shows Of All Time

8. Breaking Bad

The greatest drama of its generation, and one of the greatest of all time, Breaking Bad had everyone wondering how it would finish but, even with that ending known, it's worth revisiting for the journey.

The propulsive nature of the plot means that it's a thrill to binge-watch your way through, with every episode ending in a way that leaves you wanting to watch the next one. The character arc is well written and performed, the drama so Shakespearean in structure, that it never gets boring. Instead you pick up on the little details, and feel very differently watching, say, Season 1 Walt knowing what he'll be doing in Season 4.

You can sit back and just enjoy how stunning everything is, from the cinematography to the acting, and unlike a lot of serialised drama it actually works brilliantly episodically.
