Two men spent 86 hours and 37 minutes watching “The Simpsons” to set a new world record for continuous television viewing. The men, 33-year-old Carin Shreve and 22-year-old Jeremiah Franco, set the record as part of a Simpsons marathon (in honor of the program’s 500th episode) Feb. 8-12 in Los Angeles. Franco says he started getting really tired around the 45-hour mark, and he began drinking 5-Hour Energy drinks to stay awake. “I’m pretty much the exact age of ‘The Simpsons’—the actual show premiered three months after I was born,” he said. “I’ve been watching it my entire life.” (Entertainment Weekly)
