It aired on radio from January 25, 1937 to June 29, 1956 and debuted on CBS Television on June 30, 1952. The final story airs on CBS on September 18, 2009. It is also the longest running broadcast program of any kind (72 years), across both radio and then television mediums, in history, being first broadcast five days after President Franklin D Roosevelt's second inauguration.

That would be the "Robbie" show. In November I will have been LIVE for 48 years. Not looking to get canceled for at least 40 more.

Adios.

Something appears to be amiss with your math. Or were they on radio too?

TV in the US started in 1948 though some form of the technology existed since the late 1920s. It made it's public debut in the 1939 World's Fair. Though originally as a potenital new communication device.

I said show.

I did not specify the format (i.e. radio show, tv show, etc.).

The math is fine, don't you remember the radio broadcast?

**Tam** · 09-14-2009, 08:47 PM

The damn show replacing it is Let's Make a Deal with Wayne Brady as the host, and I am NOT happy about this one little bit. I have watched Guiding Light as long as i can remember and they have won award after award as recent as this very year, but it is still being taken off for a FUCKING game show..... what a waste of airtime that'll be.

Needless to say, I am not happy with this, I grew up watching this show.

**Tam** · 09-14-2009, 08:48 PM

Don't get me wrong, I love Wayne Brady, just not in the place of Guiding Light.

**Tam** · 09-14-2009, 08:52 PM

Let's make a Deal

For those of you that remember the OLD version with Monty Hall: Official Website

Wow, that's one hell of a run.

**pornocruto** · 09-15-2009, 12:51 AM

Damn! thats a good fucking effort.

**Davy** · 09-15-2009, 01:43 AM

Never heard of that show. It's amazing that people could have followed a single soap opera for their whole life.
