When have shows "jumped the shark"
Just wondering when your opinions are of shows that have jumped the shark, meaning go downhill., past and present
I'll throw out a few shows South Park Simpsons Star Trek (any one) In living Color Seinfeld |
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
|
I don't get it, Seinfeld never "jumped the shark".

To some people it did. Not to others. Some feel Larry David leaving hurt the show, which I kinda agree with. But wouldn't say it jumped. |

South Park has gotten BETTER over the years.
|
Seinfeld was lame in like the last couple episodes, besides that it was always perfect.
A lot of people think South Park is better now than ever, but it simply lost its outrageousness, its shock value mind you. The Simpsons is the show that has gone down hill, its not even funny for the past five years. |
Gilligan's Island.
Harlem Globetrotters make a special appearance. |
i know there's a website, i was just wondering on your opinions. and yes, some shows never have.
In living color- when Keenan got sued off the show Seinfeld- When Larry David left Married With Children- When Seven was introduced |
I liked Seinfeld the whole time it went on, and like someone above said, South Park just gets better..
|
The "Star Trek" shows definietly jumped the shark with Voyager --- there's a reason why Spike TV isn't playing it nonstop --- but with the individual series that preceded it (the original show, Next Generation, and Deep Space Nine) I don't think that their was a particular jump-the-shark moment in either one.

Speaking of which does Enterprise suck?
And Simpsons still rock. |
WWE Smackdown
WWE Raw WWE Sunday Night Heat |
Happy Days. That Fonzy is so crazy.
|
The Simpsons went down hill after the 34567819th episode completly revolving around Homer and some new "wacky" situation he has been put in.
|
Jumping the shark isn't simply going down hill. It's when a show just goes that bit too far and then becomes a bit of a joke. I think its called that after Fonzy literally jumped over a shark on waterskis in happy days one time

Than the 34567819th episode where Ray's parents bother Debra, so Debra bothers Ray, so Ray is whiny? Than the 34567819th episode where Lucy tries to get into Ricky's show, Ricky tells her no, she schemes her way into it, and messes it up, understanding in the end that Ricky was right? |

Correct. |
Simpsons jumped the shark when the storyline where something happens and they have to go somewhere to sort it out. Bart Vs Australia was awesome. The rest have been dire.
