The two types of reruns are those that occur during a <a href="/wiki/Hiatus_(television)" title="Hiatus (television)">hiatus</a> and those that occur when a program is <a href="/wiki/Broadcast_syndication" title="Broadcast syndication">syndicated</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Variations">Variations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rerun&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Variations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a>, the word "repeat" refers only to a single episode; "rerun" or "rerunning" is the preferred term for an entire series/season. A "repeat" is a single episode of a series that is broadcast outside its original timeslot on the same channel/network. The episode is usually the "repeat" of the scheduled episode that was broadcast in the original timeslot earlier the previous week. It allows viewers who were not able to watch the show in its timeslot to catch up before the next episode is broadcast. The term "rerun" can also be used in some respects as a synonym for "<a href="/wiki/Reprint" title="Reprint">reprint</a>", the equivalent term for print items; this is especially true for print items that are part of ongoing series such as <a href="/wiki/Comic_strip" title="Comic strip">comic strips</a>. (<i><a href="/wiki/Peanuts" title="Peanuts">Peanuts</a></i>, for instance, has been in reruns since the retirement and death of creator <a href="/wiki/Charles_M._Schulz" title="Charles M. Schulz">Charles M. Schulz</a>). In <a href="/wiki/South_Africa" title="South Africa">South Africa</a>, reruns of the daily soap opera <i><a href="/wiki/7de_Laan" title="7de Laan">7de Laan</a></i> and others are called an omnibus. The omnibus is a weekly rerun that is broadcast on a Sunday afternoon on the original channel/network. It only broadcasts the past week's episodes back-to-back. </p><p>When used to refer to the rebroadcast of a single episode, <a href="/wiki/Lucille_Ball" title="Lucille Ball">Lucille Ball</a> and <a href="/wiki/Desi_Arnaz" title="Desi Arnaz">Desi Arnaz</a> are generally credited as the inventors of the rerun. It was first used for the American television series <i><a href="/wiki/I_Love_Lucy" title="I Love Lucy">I Love Lucy</a></i> (1951–57) during Ball's pregnancy. Prior to <i>I Love Lucy</i> rerunning its episodes during the summer, shows typically went on a summer hiatus and were replaced with summer replacements, generally lower-priority programs; this strategy has seen increased use in the 21st century as fewer episodes have been produced each season and in-season reruns have increased. <a href="/wiki/Rod_Serling" title="Rod Serling">Rod Serling</a>'s 1955 teleplay <i><a href="/wiki/Patterns_(Kraft_Television_Theatre)" title="Patterns (Kraft Television Theatre)">Patterns</a></i> was credited with proving reruns' viability.

Generally, the buyer is either a <a href="/wiki/Cable_channel" class="mw-redirect" title="Cable channel">cable channel</a> or an owner of local television stations.

Often, about <a href="/wiki/100_episodes" title="100 episodes">100 episodes</a> (four to five seasons' worth) are required for a weekly series to be rerun in daily syndication (at least four times a week). Very popular series running more than four seasons may start daily reruns of the first seasons, while production and airings continue of the current season's episodes; until around the early 1980s, shows that aired in syndication while still in production had the reruns aired under an alternate name (or multiple alternate names, as was the case with <i><a href="/wiki/Death_Valley_Days" title="Death Valley Days">Death Valley Days</a></i>) to differentiate the reruns from the first-run episodes. </p><p>Few people anticipated the long life that a popular television series would eventually have in syndication, so most performers signed contracts that limited residual payments to about six repeats.
