Question: What current TV show is the longest-running live-action primetime show ever?
Bill Evs 3 years ago (edited)
Umm, fairly certain The Simpsons isn't live action? Literally the exact opposite. And I'm pretty sure many, many other prime time shows have been on much longer, as when you say "ever" that means anywhere in the world. Doctor Who and Coronation Street in the UK straight off the top of my head have run much longer (1963 and 1960) so long as the questions aren't entirely about US-centric shows. Unless I've totally misunderstood the question?
