  ...As for the UK, the Simpsons, Frasier and Friends all appear to be shown daily.

  
  Those are all very long series. I wonder if the winner would be a kids programme like Bagpuss which only had about 12 episodes?

  There are some single episodes of Two and a Half Men that were shown over 40 times each during one year, on Comedy Central.
  Double that if you include the +1 channel
  
  However, the channel's scheduling scheme was so completely random that other episodes were only shown less than a dozen times.

  Friends isn't repeated any more; it's How I Met Your Mother.

  As soon as i saw the title of the thread i thought of Only Fools & Horses just because Gold seem to show it constantly.
  
  MASH is another show that Comedy Central seemed to have on a constant loop.When they finished showing all the seasons they would start back up again from season 1.
  
  It now looks like True Ent & True Drama are now showing MASH on a daily basis with each channel showing different episodes.

  I would like to say Doctor Who, but I can't:(. All five series of Star Trek are repeated quite a lot though?

  I was just saying the other day that Comedy Central should be re-named the Friends Channel. Not that I mind, I still love it all these years later and if there is ever a gap in programs I want to watch you can just about guarantee Friends will be on, on CC or CC+1.

  It was said that I Love Lucy/The Lucy Show was on somewhere in the world at any time of the day all the time, but that was a long time back.

  Until fairly recently, whole 2003/04 series' of Top Gear on Dave 4 times a day began to grate. They seem to be airing stuff from the last couple of years now, however.

  US shows such as Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Scrubs and How I Met Your Mother are all rotated extremely heavily.
  
  Of our home-grown shows, Only Fools and Horses, Dad's Army and Last of the Summer Wine must account for many hours of repeats per year. However, for sheer relentless rotation of very little content, the 12 episodes of Fawlty Towers have been running on a loop on UK Gold/GOLD since the early 90s.

  Family Guy and American Dad on BBCThree: A week of shows, then a 'stack' of about 10 shows at the weekend - all of which are the exact same shows that have been on throughout the week, in the same order - then the following week, it's the same shows on the same nights again

  I was going to reply with at least they change the content every day. But more often than not, it's the same as every other day.
