The show’s ninth season made it the longest-running Showtime show in the network’s history. Emmy Rossum, who plays Macy’s eldest daughter Fiona, did not return as a regular for the 10th season, and the show concluded with its 11th and final season in 2021.

22. Adventure Time
IMDb user rating: 8.6
– Years on the air: 2010–2018This Cartoon Network show follows the adventures of a boy and his best friend, a talking dog who can change his size and shape at will, in a mystical and magical realm.

Another unusual aspect of the show is its approach to voice casting.
