"Jump the Shark" Secret Origins


When screenwriters decided to have Henry Winkler as Fonzie in the now-famous "jump the shark" scene on "Happy Days", little did they know what repercussions it would have decades later.

LA Times has done a great story on it, on how jump the shark came to become the expression we all know and love.

It's quite an interesting read, and you'll find out that the particular episode wasn't actually the "jump the shark" moment for Happy Days. :)
