replays

Watch it again

Replays are repeated showings or playings of something.

In sports broadcasting, a replay shows an important moment again, often in slow motion: Let's see that touchdown on the replay.

In gaming, replays are recorded sessions you can watch back.

The verb replay means to play again—a game, a recording, or mentally: I keep replaying the conversation in my head.
