Jumping the shark is an idiom, first employed to describe a moment in the evolution of a television show when it begins a decline in quality that is beyond recovery.

"mm what do you mean jump the shark???"

it means something that has completely run it's course and has stuck around long after the fun/novelty/humour etc has worn off.

"Jumping the shark"

OK I am going to be really geeky

Refers to an episode of "Happy Days" where the Fonz jumps a shark on his motorbike.

"Jumping the shark" is used as a reference to ludicrous plot lines that are introduced to try and breath some life into a tv show that has run it's course.

Pretty much covers every episode of east enders over the past 20 years. Think Dirty Den being gunned down ... then when the show flagged again coming back to life.
