They both mean the same thing. Some people might find nuances, but they are usually interchangeable.
Ex.
"I walked down the street over and over."
"I walked down the street again and again."

Yeah, I think 'over and over' is merely an idiom that means 'again and again'. And, this might be irrelevant but I tend to use 'over and over' if I wanted to express my annoyance.
