What is the longest-running TV show in the United States?

The longest-running TV show in the United States is 'Meet the Press', a Sunday morning news/talk show which premiered on November 6, 1947, and still airs today. The show has been on the air for over 70 years and has been hosted by fourteen different moderators, including the current moderator, Chuck Todd.

'Meet the Press' is a weekly show that features interviews with politicians, journalists, and other newsmakers. The show's format has remained largely unchanged since its inception, relying on a panel of journalists to question guests and discuss current events.

While 'Meet the Press' is the longest-running TV show in the United States, it is not the longest-running TV show in the world. That title belongs to 'Grandma's Garden', a children's show that has been airing in Sweden since 1962.

The longest-running scripted show in the United States is The Simpsons. The animated sitcom has been on the air since 1989 and is currently in its 33rd season. The Simpsons has won 34 Primetime Emmy Awards, 34 Annie Awards, and a Peabody Award. It is also the longest-running American sitcom, the longest-running American animated program, and the longest-running American scripted primetime television series.

The Simpsons is set in the fictional town of Springfield and follows the lives of the Simpson family: Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. The show is known for its satirical humor, pop culture references, and animation style.

The Simpsons has been praised by critics and audiences alike. It has been called one of the greatest television shows of all time and has been credited with popularizing the adult animated sitcom genre.
