Shows That Stayed in the Same Timeslot their Entire Run - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

icecream · 01-06-2016, 06:32 PM

Every year many shows get moved around the schedule. What are some shows that never moved and stayed in the same timeslot their entire run? To qualify for this thread the show must have lasted at least four seasons.

NCIS- currently in its 13th season Tuesdays at 8:00
Castle- currently in its 8th season Mondays at 10:00
The Waltons aired 9 seasons Thursdays at 8:00.
ER aired 15 seasons Thursdays at 10:00.

What an accomplishment!

I think this would have applied to Happy Days (which aired on Tuesdays at 8:00 PM for most of its run) if it hadn't been bumped to 8:30 PM in favor of the infamous Just Our Luck, and later, Foul-Ups, Bleeps & Blunders, during its 11th and final season (1983-84).

And of course, Lassie (CBS 1954 - 1972 Sunday evenings 7:00PM), the CBS affiliate in my area (WJBK - Detroit, Michigan) ran the syndicated episodes (That's 1972-1973 for those of you in Rio Linda!

) on the same time slot (7:00 PM Sunday evenings) as well.

Can this thread only apply to shows that are no longer active? I mean, with current veteran shows that have been in the exact same timeslot since their beginning, there's always the possibility that, for their next season, they may get moved to a different timeslot to make room for either a new show or another current show.
