Mt. Rushmore of TV Shows That Ran FAR Too Long

This week we're looking at TV shows that overstayed their welcome and were on the air longer than they should have been. In some cases, the writers had clearly run out of ideas. In others? The show wasn't that great to begin with, but because it was successful enough or cheap enough to make, it kept popping up on the network schedule season after season. We're not just picking on shows that survived despite their own mediocrity, however. We're also calling out some of the biggest and most beloved shows in TV history for having stayed on air more than a little bit past their expiration date. You'll want to listen to some of the HOT TAKES we have on this topic.
