| 49223 | Why, "Jump the Shark"? | <p>I like the phrase, "Lightening In A Bottle".</p> <p>When a show or series hits the sweet spot, it's like Lightening in a Bottle, a combination of circumstances that will never happen again, but if they do, not in quite the same way. The original 1984 Ghostbusters has been described as Lightening in a Bottle.</p> <p>Television shows very prone to "Shark Jumping", just by the continuing nature of broadcast storytelling. When the original team of writers move on to other projects, it's heartbreaking to watch a favorite show go downhill fast.</p> <p>I quickly fell out of love with Red Dwarf when Chris Barrie's "Rimmer" left the show, replaced by Kochanski. The old <em>"Boys from Da Dwarf"</em> club vibe was completely destroyed.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ad/53/7d/ad537d518c070c922c85f8e837008f33.jpg" /></p> | eddstarr | May 09, 2022 |  |
| 49222 | Why, "Jump the Shark"? | <p>It just goes to show you, the TV show makers' passion of making quality programming is gone. </p> <p> </p> <p>There is an exception though: The creators of South Park. </p> <p> </p> <p>I believe they still put effort into making their show funny.</p> | Mr Magic | May 09, 2022 | |
| 49221 | Why, "Jump the Shark"? | <p>in my "introduction to spongebob squarepants" article i mentioned how the characters in spongebob became flanderized after stephen hillenburg and previous show writers left the show, much like how the simpsons has become since the 2000s, but i could go on about how there's a divide in fans on both shows for the same reason with the defense of "yeah the show isn't the same but it's still watchable", but you can really tell from the highs and the lows. from what i've seen in recent spongebob episodes they try and replicate the gross out close ups from the old ren & stimpy episodes and aside from the smoother looking animation, those are really all the show has going for it now. barely any humor that adults will understand like the first few seasons, now the characters are completely dumbed down only for the younger audience.</p> | Benjanime | May 09, 2022 | |
