It helps that the sitcom was certified by Guinness World Record as having the “ Most Guest Stars Featured in a TV Series.” While those 600-plus cameos weren’t all musicians, many were. Outside of talk and variety shows – Ed Sullivan, Late Show, et al – there’s no television program that has had as many musical guests as The Simpsons. With this latest milestone in mind, let’s take a moment to remember the importance of music to the series. The Simpsons has been renewed for Season 29 and Season 30, which will push it pass Gunsmoke’s 635 episodes. But with Gunsmoke’s longer seasons the western still has the record for episode count with 635. Currently in its 28th season, today it was announced The Simpsons will reach another milestone: longest-running scripted TV show of all time. In season count The Simpsons surpassed Gunsmoke – which aired from 1955 to 1975 – seven years ago. Over its staggering near-three-decade run The Simpsons has won 32 Emmys, 34 Annie Awards, a People’s Choice, was the first animated series to win a Peabody and been recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
