Systems and methods are provided herein for selectively replaying interrupted segments of media content that are important for understanding a storyline of the media content. In response to detecting noise in a media presentation environment where a current segment is being played, it is determined whether the current segment is important. Responsive to the determination that the current segment is important, a complexity score of the audio component of the current segment is determined and a replay threshold is determined based on the complexity score. Responsive to the determination that the detected noise level is greater than the replay threshold, the current segment is replayed from the beginning instead of continuing to play the media content.
