Awwww damn. Doncha hate it when your fav's jump the shark? I went to see the new Trek movie, it did not make the jump ( like that horrible one with the whale ) but I just don't get all the fuss. And, it was directed by a guy who's TV show ( LOST ) is one of the few shows that has not yet shark jumped.
24 just jumped the shark. It's over Johhny. The addition of 9-11 truther Garafalo accompanied the Fonz right over that tank.
The Simpson's movie spelled out the doom. The only relevant and hilarious animated shows left are now South Park and Family guy. The Simpson got scared.
I did not even bother with Idol this year, that shark got jumped years ago. Celebrity Apprentice jumped because anyone with a clue knew the fix was in from day one. Joan Rivers committed the unforgivable: she walked out and quit the show, and Trump let her back in.
Survivor is still relevant. Like Limbaugh or Carson, like 'Meet the Press' the old lady of reality shows can still do it. The rest of the lot of reality shows have long since jumped.
Glenn Beck is travelling up the ramp, and gaining speed. The nail in the coffin is his advertising 'Survival Seed Bank', which is also promoted by Alex Jones. Besides this organization being a scam, the idea that this 'populist' man is asking you to buy 'survival seeds' should set off alarm bells all over the place. Yet this clown is still #3 and selling out theaters nationwide. Come, see the 'egress'!!
Last week I heard an interview with Ron Howard where he was asked about 'jumping the shark'. Imagine for a minute that an episode in one of the thousands of TV shows you performed in has created a term that defines overdoing it. That's heady stuff. Yet, the guy still seems kinda down to earth.
Were all on the waterskis heading up in the air...We have all jumped the shark.
