I hope this isn't the Doctor's
Jump the shark moment. (Dr. Who in Cyberspace? Quick! Alter that ping packet to a legal length!)

Re:Haha.Please reconsider that thought. It didn't sell very well. Gender conflict is one of the key elements to sitcom relationship humor.

Re:I never really understood the appeal...jumptheshark.com agrees with you. Galactica '80 is precisely when BSG 'jumped the shark'.
Cool site, tells you when TV shows started to go downhill. (happy days started to suck right around the time fonz jumped a shark tank with his bike)

Microsoft Jumps the Shark!"All of us owe MSFT a measure of appreciation for creating an "operating system" which allows almost anyone with interest to become semi-literate in computer operation. This gift is world-wide and has aided the US in becoming the leading nation is technology." --a quote from a FIN site visitor.
A couple of things:
We all know what happened after people started reffering to New Kids on the Block as "NKOTB". Surely, MSFT is headed for the same fate, a breakup.
Remember the Smurfs? You know when they added the "kid" Smurfs and that damned puppy-dog? Well, the next season, they got cancelled. Cutesy innovation like these surely bode doom! Speaking of cutesy innovations, check out Windows Millenium. Microsoft has surely Jumped the Shark.
The last time I received a "gift", IT WAS FREE GODDAMNIT!
Does your OS breed Bolsheviks? Mine doesn't.
That is all, comrades. Heed the call of the "semi-literate" computer user.

Re:suck = timeReminds me of the website I saw the other day where it tells exactly when tvshows started to suck:
leave it to beaver - beave goes through puberty
happy days - pinky tuscadero (fonzie jumps the shark tank)
bewitched - dick york is replaced
dream of jeanie - Maj. Nelson and Jeanie get married
M*A*S*H - Hotlips starts being likeable or when they stopped using the laughtrack
3's company - (you mean it didn't always suck!?) when the ropers get their own show and are replaced by Don Knotts, or when Suzanne Sommers leaves the show... take your pick -
