Is it the Simpsons
The Simpsons is the longest running cartoon in animated cartoon history .
It didn't and won't break that record because it isn't the longest running animated TV program.Japan's Sazae-San has been on the air since 1969 and still produces episodes today.However, the longest running prime time [e.g. American] animated program before The Simpsons was The Flintstones which ran for six seasons [1960-1966], so when The Simpsons' 140th episode aired Team Homer, that was when the broke The Flintstones record.
The longest running cartoon in history is Japan's Sazae-San, it began in October 1969 & has been airing ever since.
The Simpsons wasn't the longest running cartoon family in 1997 nor is it today.Japan's Sazae-san was, is & will remain for a while the longest running animated TV show in history, obviously this answers the question of the longest running cartoon family as well.It debuted in 1969 and produces new episodes today-However if you mean strictly American television, the closest answer is The Flintstones although it only ran for 6 seasons. The Simpsons passed The Flintstones' run in 1995 not 1997.
He is the host of "The Price is Right," the longest running game show in television history.
The simpsons is an animated show that is the longest running show on primetime and is shown on Fox Network. The best place to find shows is to look at Fox Network first and then look for reruns from other stations.
