The show has lasted 24 years so far. It has kept its core cast throughout
the whole time. That is an extreme rarity in network television - probably
unprecedented - and the idea that the showrunners spend decade after decade
pissed off with Shearer but unwilling to act at all is laughable. It's akin
to the elderly divorcing couple who were just waiting until the kids died.
