Bob Newhart had three shows as well, but I don't think the one in the 90s lasted long.
Did he make the list?Had his own show with Suzanne Pleshette,then another show with Mary Frann,Think there might have been a couple of others

His final series in the 90s only went 33 episodes.

But I'm pretty sure he's the only actor ever to star in 3 series that were all named after him, so...

Dynasty 220 episodes

My buddy from South Africa said the entire country shut down when Dynasty came on, he pronounces it "Dinasty"

When I was spending a  lot of time in France in the mid 90s, they absolutely loved that I was from Texas.  They were huge fans of Dallas, you see.

The very first time they were asking me about the show, I didn't understand.  They were talking about a character named Zhayaaar OoooING.  I finally figured out that they meant JR Ewing.

And then I cemented all stereotypes when I told them the true story about my friend from Dallas who had just gotten married at South Fork ranch. At that point, they were convinced that all Texans road horses to work, lived in vast ranches, and owned oil wells.  I didn't disabuse them of this notion, it would have been cruel. :)

Two I didn't mention were:

Jane Curtin - Not sure if SNL should count, but she has 2 + SNL

Bea Benaderet - If we aren't counting voice over work.

I think SNL would count if the actor was in a significant role. She was on for 6 straight years and did Weekend Update across from Dan Aykroyd. I'd allow it.

I wouldn't give it to an actor who had 1-2 seasons even though the show itself has had hundreds of episodes.

I am a little shocked that Third Rock went over 100 episodes though...

That show was just terrible.  I couldn't make it through five minutes of any episode.  

Just goes to show ya, it takes all kinds.

Lucille Ball's 3 series were all named after her.

I also think that voice over work of prime-time series like The Flintstones and Simpsons should count where Saturday morning cartoons probably shouldn't.

Most of my French friends and cousins have spent time in the US, but not all.  And a group of retirees from there had a joint trip to the US a few years back.  I did a wine tasting with them (blind) that was amusing, and some of them visited our house.  The houses here generally don't have fences and they remarked on that and was it safe?

I said "We don't have fences, what we do have are guns."

They nodded as if that was a revelation.  Their view of the US is heavily influenced by Hollywood.  

I saw somewhere that more movies and shows are shot in Georgia these days than Hollywood.  It is a noticeable business hereabouts, though down quite a bit during COVID.
