List of longest running U.S. television series


This is a list of the longest running United States television series, ordered by number of broadcast seasons. This list includes only first-run series that originated in North America and available throughout the U.S. via national broadcast networks, U.S. cable networks, or syndication. Series continuations (with name changes and/or changes in network) are noted, but series' revivals are treated as separate from the originals (see The People's Court and Jeopardy!).
