Law and Order:SVU - this show currently has 21 seasons under it's belt. That impressive considering the original show lasted for 20. I haven't followed the series in a long time so I don't know if there's been anymore series attempted.
NCIS - From my understanding this show spinoff from JAG which had 10 seasons. NCIS currently has 17 seasons and two spinoffs of it's own.

Does THE SIMPSONS count? That was spun off THE TRACY ULLMAN SHOW, which lasted four seasons. And THE SIMPSONS cannot be killed.

Knots Landing lasted 14 full seasons, while Dallas lasted 13 plus the original miniseries (even though on DVD they label it 14 seasons). I'm not counting the Dallas 2012 continuation as part of the original.

Another one that needs a decision from the judges on whether it counts is HAPPY DAYS. That had its backdoor pilot on LOVE AMERICAN STYLE--albeit with Harold Gould playing Howard. LOVE AMERICAN STYLE lasted five seasons. HAPPY DAYS had eleven seasons.
