The earliest syndicated discovery for me was the original Star Trek. It started at the top of the hour right after getting home from grade school. Die-hard Trekkie ever since.

Newsradio. FOX started airing it nightly and I didn't stop watching.
King of the Hill, I watched the first few seasons, then stopped, and now FOX airs it like, 4 times a day and I usually watch all of them.

Baywatch - I never watched it before syndication, but for a while I watched it every single night.
Although I watched this show back in the day too, my roommates and I love watching American Gladiators everyday over our lunch break. They should have kept it on the air, but I'll stick with the syndicated episodes on TNN for now.

Homicide: Life on the Street - Even though I thought it was a good show I never watched it in it's original run.

Though not technically syndication, I discovered what I'd consider to be my favorite TV series of all time -- Freaks and Geeks -- second-run on cable.

not discovered, but got back into and caught up on
Stargate SG1
I watched the first 1 or 2 seasons as it was on after SNL on the local nbc station, then I moved to Buffalo and it was on at some time when I wasn't watching tv and would forget to tape it, like sat afternoon or something so I stopped watching it
but scifi has let me get fairly well caught up

not syndication but I discovered 24 on dvd. Picked it up for $25 and watched the entire season in a week(about a month ago). I am currently watching it again with my wife before season 2 arrives on dvd, and hopefully that will catch me up before season 3 starts this fall so I can watch it weekly.

I never watched The Drew Carey Show until it came on my local Fox affiliate, and I grew to love it. Then they stopped showing it.
