Favorite tv show where the same characters / actors stayed for the full run

[caj]

Counting only shows that lasted 3 or more seasons, what are your favorite tv shows in which the same entire cast of characters played by the same actors stayed for the full run of the series?

In other words, no one left and no actor was replaced.

Twin Peaks wins it for me. Made even greater that there was a 26 year gap between Season 2 and 3

I'm going to have to go TOS, ENT, & Married with Children because everything else has actors who left.

B5, TNG, DS9, Dallas, Dr. Who, West Wing, All in the Family, Sopranos, Walking Dead, Orville, X-Files, Roseanne/The Connors, all fail the litmus test.

Friends. Hard to beat that cast, IMO.

I was about to say Wings but I remembered that Thomas Hayden Church left and Brian Haley took his place as the Less funny Budd.

This is a really hard one to pick.

Question. Would it count if someone less and came back?

Married with Children had Steve leave and be replaced by Jefferson.

Married with Children had Steve leave and be replaced by Jefferson.

Which made the show a hell of a lot better.

You're right down to TOS & ENT

That it did. He was better suited to Al.

Even I'm having trouble finding a show.

I think Frasier kept all principle cast members throughout its run.

Seinfeld. Although I don't know if it counts since Elaine didn't show up in the pilot.

Seinfeld. Although I don't know if it counts since Elaine didn't show up in the pilot.

She also missed a couple of episodes due to maternity leave.

Surely it would count though. The pilot is just a pilot and she was added when the show was given a series order. So, while she wasn't in the pilot, she was added and was in all 9 series.

I would definitely accept Seinfeld. Pilots are constantly reworked.

For example, The Golden Girls had a gay cook.in the pilot but was dropped by the 2nd episode. All four actresses were in every episode of the 7 seasons so GG would count.

Didn't TOS replace Pike and some of his crew with Kirk and others?

Yeoman Rand left during the 1st season.

And Checkov didn't show up until the 2nd season so it does not count.
