Oh lol okay day didn't realize THAT many shows were on that long. So yeah I'm wrong about that claim for sure.Well for one thing it's just flat out wrong regardless of how to count the seasons. Many more shows have more seasons than 33:

You'll also note that the way they list longest running TV series is by years, not seasons. Years makes a lot more sense than seasons
I never said it was the greatest show in the world because people watch it. I said it's not terrible because if it was people wouldn't watch it. It's clearly popular and this is just another example of nerds on the internet hating what is popular.So we can decide quality by how many people watch or "like" something? That's a dangerous concept.
It's kinda fringy (like the 1963 Gen X guy), there's always some overlap and people end up with elements of both. Kinda depends who you ask. I would tend to lean towards not-so-much, personally.1980 is considered a Millenial?
I thought for sure that guy was on the Gen X team then they said he was 28 and I was like WTF? Dude looks like he is 38 not 28.LOL a guy born in 1963 is not a gen Xer - sorry.
Also, what's with all the ugly chicks?
and this guy ...

That said, it clearly has enough people who like it that they can continue to keep making these shows. Calling a show like that "terrible" is just wrong IMO. If it was terrible and that many people agreed with you, then nobody would watch it and it wouldn't be made. You want to know what show became terrible? Go check out Tyrant. It was never great to begin with but just good enough to watch as a summer show. But the numbers for season 3 speak volumes of how bad it got, and it was subsequently canceled.
