People see Hollywood as nothing more than a series of one night stands, but there have been a number of actors who have been on sitcoms (at least one in the pair needs to have been a guest on a sitcom) who have never been divorced and who have been married for over 30 years. Can you name some?

To get people started:

Bob and Ginny Newhart have been married since 1964
Don and Barbara Rickles since 1965
Jack Benny and Mary Livingstone were married 1927 to his death in 1974
Anne Meara and Jerry Stiller since 1954
Carroll and Nancy O'Connor 1951 - 2001 (his death)
Hal and Francis Linden since 1958

Honorable mention:
Peter and Loraine Boyle were married 29 when Peter died
Vic and Sheila Tayback 1962 - 1990 (his death)

You may not have noticed this thread, it needs to be bumped up, but here is a thread already regarding celeb marriages. ;)
It is a good topic, isn't it?

Tony Randall was married to his first wife for close to 50 years I was thinking when she died. The years may be off, but they were married a long time.

Wow that's wonderful that there is still longevity in celebrity marriages. These days even if marriages last five years, I'm surprised.

Martin Landau and Barbara Bain were married for a great 36 years before they called it quits in 1993.
