What is it called when a show/movie is being aired on TV for the second time? Hey, fellows! What is it called when a show/movie is being aired on TV for the second time? Not "replay", something else. It's on the tip of my tongue, just can't seem to remember.

I think the word you are looking for is "re-run;" when a particular episode of a given series or movie is shown again.

We'd certainly say 'repeat' if it's a single programme. You can only 're-run' something if it has been 'run' in the first place i.e. a series.

In the UK we would more likely call it a 'repeat.'
