Jumping the shark is a metaphor used by US TV critics and fans since the 1990s to denote the moment when a TV series is (in retrospect) deemed to have passed its peak. Once a show has "jumped the shark", fans sense a noticeable decline in quality or feel the show has undergone too many changes to retain its original charm. The phrase was popularized by Jon Hein on his website, jumptheshark.com. It alludes to a scene in the TV series Happy Days when its popular character, Fonzie, is on water skis and literally jumps over a shark.

Jump the shark moments may be scenes, like the one described above, that finally convince viewers that the show has fundamentally and permanently strayed from its original premise, or they may involve the departure or replacement of a main cast member or character, or a significant change in setting. They are generally viewed as a desperate and futile attempt to keep a series fresh in the face of a decline in ratings.

The term has also evolved to describe other areas of pop culture, including movie series, music or acting celebrities, or authors for whom a drastic change was seen as the beginning of the end. These changes are often attempts to attract their fans' waning attention with over-the-top statements or increasingly overt appeals to sex or violence (see circling the drain).

Good work, 3afan... now give him the defs for these so he can figure out what you just said:

a
new
word
(explain to him what a comma is)
expression
usage
the
creation
or
use
of
senses
psychology
invention
regarded
as
schizophrenia
so
theology
doctrine
interpretation
scripture

---

It may take a while since those words have other words in their definitions...
