- Lost - should've ended it after Season 1
- Scrubs - starting to get funny again, so we'll see
- 24 - this season is just awful
- Prison Break - season 3? seriously? didn't Michael break out already?
- Gilmore Girls - at least it's over now
- Studio 60 - I was so upset about this show being cancelled--until I saw the last episode
- Sleeper Cell - did we really need another season of the same damn thing, just far worse

"Jumped the Shark" comes from the Fonz jumping a shark on his motorcycle in Happy Days. It signifies when a TV show has passed into terrible.
Lost - Agreed. would of been fantastic stand alone series.
Scrubs - though not as good as used to be and almost too cartoonish now. it's funny in that episode where they make fun of traditional sitcoms they do a joke about all characters turning up at the right times. well, that happens on scrubs all the time now, whenever key scene or a joke, kelso, janitor, turk JD al happen to be same place. But then they pull out mmoents of genius still like the final moments of "My Lunch" so i'm not sure.
