Well, I can't say for sure it'll hold up for you personally, but I first watched it in reruns on some cable station when I was about 16, then didn't come back to it for about six years, when I bought my first set of DVDs (third season, my personal favorite). It was actually better than I remembered, because I got way more of the jokes and references at 22 than I did at 16. Also, I better understood the nuances of the episodes, how the storylines tied together into a cohesive whole, or how characters were developing over the course of the series. Now I've seen all of the episodes at least twice, and some probably eight or ten times, and I still get something new out of them pretty much every time I watch. You can tell from the clothes and hairstyles that it was made in the early nineties, but it really does have a timeless feel to it. None of the humor or plot components feel dated, I guess because none of it was dependent on current events.
Caveat: The sixth season, as you probably know, stinks to high heaven. As far as I'm concerned, the show ends with "Zarya," which I think is the fifth or sixth episode of that season.
