Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed herein for a media guidance application that can automatically generate replays of particular segments of a media asset. For example, the media guidance application may determine that a segment viewed by a user is of particular interest to the user based on a comparison with a user criterion. Accordingly, upon detecting the end of the segment, the media guidance application may automatically return to the beginning of the segment, allowing the user to view the segment again.
