Jumping the shark basically means when certain shows fall into a dramatic, sudden and extremely stupid plot twist to hopefully get good ratings and stay on air. The term was an idiom created by John Hein and originated when a character on Happy days actually jumps over a shark as he was told my writers and producers that it will be his quest for a chest full of good ratings.
WELL GUESS WHAT, it never works!
Except when you kill off characters, most of the time it's the ones that i find annoying so I'm A-OK on that.
Dexter's slam piece for the first five seasons was annoying as Helsinki. Thats a place in Finland. I told everyone i stopped watching the show cause of her but when i was told she dies in season 5, i might start watching again.
Or can't we remember Scrappy Doo?
Oh god it was Super Annoying. When i was three and when Scooby Doo was over and Scrappy Doo came on, i changed the channel. Even three year old me had decent taste.
Usually when people ask me if asians kill and eat dogs, typically, those of oriental descendent would deny, but in this situation i would actually make an exception if i was in such a scenario with one of the worst spin-offs in television history.
But if we were to go further into the Scooby Doo Franchise, have i told you the extremely new and recent show
MYSTERY INCRAPORATED INC
You see, this all happened when my netflix connection was down and my messed-up japanese websites that i usually go to forgot to pay their web hosting fee THAT I WATCHED THIS ABOMINATION.
My innocent dog with a lisp, silly but courageous slacker, nerd, preppy yet initiative chick, and the team builder guy was gone!
Instead they have Velma and Shaggy ACTUALLY getting it on. That's more than Daphne and Freddy did in the entire show series! They even edited her so that she had some stupid bow on her head and awkward physique. They basically failed at her looking hipster.
WAAAAAAIT A MINUTE?!
Are those
i mean mammary glands.
"Hi gais, I'm Velma, I'm the new sex symbol of the show"
But i think the show that everyone could agree with me on is, you guessed it-
Why it was loved:
The clashing personalities and humor was a hit and created a large fanbase among our current generation for we grew up with the show. It's character is relatable since at times, it is funnily stupid and other times, sentimental.
Why we remember it as sucky:
The show token (Fez) who was constantly ripped on as well became the playboy. The old playboy became the fatherly type. The main loser guy left as was replaced by a bad actor who shared very similar in quality and looks to the original character( the writers were probably all "i dont think any of the viewers would notice"). As well as other features to why it went plop on the toilet.
There's also Good Luck Charlie the movie
The mom on the show gets pregnant again, and i thought the show was already bad. Apparently Disney heard me and tried to 'show me' how even worse the show can get by having another little midget on the show. I don't watch the show, i don't know where this is going to go but perhaps this'll be another failed attempt on trying to be like Raising Hope.
I watched the movie on Christmas, it was super sad. All i know is that every season they might change the title to 'Good luck ______' and they'll change around the names for each kid in the order they decide what to name hurricanes. Cause that's what it was. A horde of crap flying from the sky.
If so, please have your kid watch this terrible movie instead
It's a good family movie to watch with grandpa and the kids. Especially the unrated one.
