re-air

Broadcast once more

Re-air means to broadcast again, typically a television or radio program that has already been shown: The network will re-air the season finale on Sunday.

The noun form refers to such a repeat broadcast: Catch the re-air if you missed it.

Essentially synonymous with rerun, though re-air emphasizes the act of broadcasting rather than the repeated content itself.
