Though my point wasn't about formats that are successful in one country but not in another, but that in the US it's common for gameshows to run for decades uninterrupted (the US WoF has been in production since 1975, The Price is Right even longer- 1972). Whereas Countdown running for 40 years is probably the only example of a gameshow running for such a long time without any sort of break.
Family Fortunes is the only other one I can think of to break the 20 year mark (though Eggheads will soon).
