#2: Initial revision
I am actually adding a second answer based on something @user16583 mentioned. In some long-running comic strips, characters don't age or change. Strips like _FoxTrot_ and _Sally Forth_ occasionally make sly meta-jokes referencing the idea that the kids in the strip have been 10 or 12 for decades. Beetle Bailey has been doing the same thing for 70 years. But even _really_ long-running strips have some changes: The cast of _Peanuts_ expanded, Blondie has gotten a job, there have been new platoon members and sexual harassment training at Camp Swampy. So while you might be able to pull this off with a series of short stories (like _Jeeves & Wooster,_ perhaps) or a graphic novel, particularly if the stories are meant to be funny, I think you'd be hard-pressed to make it work with drama.
