Survivor

How can Survivor be listed as 23 seasons when it first went on air May 31, 2000? This makes no sense. 173.21.154.254 (talk) 13:14, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Simpsons

The Simpsons should also be listed as "Longest-running prime time entertainment program with a consistent setting and recurring characters", not just "longest animation"

Why is "The David Letterman Show" not on the list? On the air in 1982 on NBC and then moved to CBS.

Probably for the same reason the Tonight Show isn't, or even Saturday Night Live. They aren't on in Prime-time. FrozenPurpleCube 22:29, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But for another question, would it be helpful to add a column describing the type of show, such as anthology-series, news-program, drama, etc? Or would that be too cluttered? FrozenPurpleCube 22:29, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd hardly called "Hallmark Hall of Fame" a "series," just because they put their name on the occasional TV special. Tyoda (talk) 17:28, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
