When did "Happy Days" jump the shark?

[Richardo]

I think it was the episode where Fonzie jumped the shark. :)

6. The introduction of "Spike"

Fonzie's nephew who predated Chachi... Ugh.

The show WAS a shark... it ate its competition.

9. It could be as you say...

11. That would be when they jumped the shark.

[Jara sang]

12. technically it was the episode after that

if had ended on Fonzie jumping the shark. It wouldn't have jumped the shark.

14. The pilot episode: Consider the absurdity of a nostalgia sitcom

which takes place just 13 years previously (as it did when the show made its debut). Kind of like celebrating the good old days of 1992.

19. I'm surprised there actually isn't "That 90's Show"

It would be too depressing since it would start with Clinton defeating Bush

[Kraklen]

20. Yeah, but consider the context.

A lot happened between 1961 and 1974.
