  Not at all. Jump the shark is a high point that the show is not expected to reach again.

  Nuking the fridge is more of a final humiliation.

    you think that the fonz jumping over a shark on his motorcycle was the High Point of Happy Days and that’s why they call it that? 😂

      It wasn’t a motorcycle, it was on water skis.

    Jumping the shark is when the plot is lost and a ridiculous next move makes it apparent that the value is gone and the entity has become a joke of itself. That’s my interpretation. I did not google.
