TV shows from the 80's still on air?

Apart from The Simpsons, are there many more?

Bye!

PS: Re-runs do not count! :-)

Wow, good question. Stuff like talk shows last for decades of course.. but in their actual current configurations even those fail this test. (in the US anyway)

I think in the UK the longest runner is our Brian's favourite, The Sky At Night. But that wasn't your question.. sorry ;)

The Young And The Restless!!! OMG... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... to be continued....

Glamour??

I read somewhere a while ago that As The World Turns (yes that horrible soap) is running for more than 50 years!! So that counts as '90, '80, '70, '60 and a part from the '50's, lol.

Dont forget Eastenders in the UK.....

Well ok then forget Eastenders. And Neighbours. And Home And Away as well......

I guess that getting all the seasons in DVD will be quite expensive! :-)

Uhh...most soap operas have been on longer than the 80's. The Young and the Restless started in the 70's, I think.

saturday night live? mad TV? i'm not sure... :-S

As The World Turns? xD Oh wait that started in the 50's.

Heh, I love how Home and Away came about from Channel 7 losing Neighbours. Not that I was alive to see that but...IT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD!

I love the English obsession with those two shows. I remember when my cousins came from Mannnnnnnnchester and they absolutely screamed at the TV when so and so did [event x] to Thingermajig. Strange kids. No wonder one is back in ol' Blighty and the other is floating around New Zealand.

They're the only two I can think of!

I forgot about Last Of The Summer Wine.....

I really wished I could forget it again its been going that long....

There's also all the news shows, like 60 Minutes.
