In your opinion.

 

"Jumping the shark is a metaphor that was originally used to denote the tipping point at which a TV series is deemed to have passed its peak, or has introduced plot twists that are illogical in terms of everything that has preceded them."

 

So what TV shows do you think "jumped the shark"?

Beverly Hill and Melrose Place ... yeah, and maybe Charmed.

shows jump the shark when they end up repeating their old stories a billion times in my opinion.

Desperate Housewives.

The first season was SO good, then it just got stupid.

Only Fools and Horses.

 

The Simpsons.

Desperate Housewives.

The first season was SO good, then it just got stupid.

 

 

I know!

 

 

I hate to say this...but I think The Office kinda jumped the shark. I LOVE that show....God I love that show. But after the second season with Jim && Pam, it's like 'Now what?'

I know!

I assume your on about the American Remake of The Office, as the British verison only ran for 2 seasons plus a christmas special.

Yeah I'm talking about the American version. I've never seen the British one.

I think all TV shows end up doing it if they go on for too long.........................

Happy days and Friends are two prime examples.

America's Next Top Model

It's one of my favorites, but there's not much variety. Every season there's always a bitch, a psycho, a girl with body issues, and someone who gets really sick. But I'm glad Cari Dee won. :D

^ That's true... But the weirdo's do different things every year so it keeps it interesting...

 

Home & Away and Neighbours should have given up long ago... It's getting more and more unrealistic and stupid as the seasons go by.

 

And Big Brother. Can't wait for that to stop showing.

that's unfortunately true. :(

so true, it's so dramatic that i think they have their plot and script ...but yeah, i still watching it

well thhat kinda doomed the US version I think lol if they could only do 2 season of the UK version!!!!! I just think Ricky Gervais got caught up with other stuff.... like Extras...

 

as for the US version..... I think once Pam and the other guy hooked up its like... 'aww man', but I love Steve Carell. :)

 

I definitely think Desperate Housewives needs to go........ they tried at first to make it like Sex and the City savy.... but you know thats not possible on network tv.... now the story line is just stupid. agreed.

Nope, Ricky only ever wanted to do 2 seasons plus a christmas special of The Office. It's not like he got caught up with other stuff that early.

 

He wanted it to be like Faulty Towers, with just 2 seasons.

Yeah the whole Pam and Jim thing...I mean, I love their little romance, if you wanna call it that. But Maybe they could have played with it for a little longer. It's only the second season!

 

 

Desperate Housewives will NEVER be as savvy as Sex and the City. It just won't. :P
