rebroadcasts

Airs once more

Rebroadcasts are repeat transmissions of previously aired programs: The network runs rebroadcasts of the evening news at midnight.

The verb means to broadcast again, whether immediately to extend reach or later as a rerun: The game will be rebroadcasted on the sports channel tomorrow.

Both rebroadcast and rebroadcasted serve as past tense.
