THE 40 ”JUMP THE SHARK” MOMENTS FROM 40 POPULAR CLASSIC TV SHOWS
ME-TV recently posted their choices for THE 40 ”JUMP THE SHARK” MOMENTS FROM 40 POPULAR CLASSIC TV SHOWS. Here are my three of my least favorite jump the shark moments (and my comments) from otherwise fun and/entertaining tv series…
-
The Andy Griffith Show – Deputy Warren Ferguson replaces Barney Fife in “The Bazaar.” (Andy without Barney just wasn’t the same. And sadly, Barney without Andy wasn’t either.)
-
Welcome Back, Kotter – “Southern Sweathog” Beau De LaBarre joins the crew as Kotter becomes Vice Principal and Vinnie gets his own apartment in “Don’t Come Up and See Me Sometime.” (Travolta was moving on to movies and a new hunk was needed.)
-
Miami Vice Sonny suddenly marries Sheena Easton’s Caitlin in “Like a Hurricane.” (The jump may have actually happened before this. In my opinion when the special guest stars became more important than the stories you could see the shark starting to warm up.)
