In the UK, the word "Repeat" refers only to a single episode; "rerun" or "rerunning" is the preferred term for an entire series/season. "Repeat" is also used to refer to programs shown less than a week after the original broadcast, before the next episode of the series.

See [[Summer Replacement Series]], which is what was done before the rerun was invented (and sometimes still is done).
