Not-so-instant replay of Fonzie's shark jump
I love Arrested Development. So wonderfully quirky - in a good way, not in a greasy and antisocial way like Napoleon DynaMEH. Last night, Henry Winkler did another famous shark jump. If you're not familiar with "jumping the shark", it refers to a moment when a TV show has peaked creatively and starts going downhill. It gets its name from the moment when Happy Days started to plummet - when Fonzie jumps over a shark on skis.
Here's a list of the shark moments from shows that have made such a "jump" - Jump the Shark
And here is a wee little 45-second clip from Arrested Development last night, featuring Henry Winkler's jump and some talk of a one-flippered seal that swims around in circles.
I love when people (Henry Winkler, I'm looking at you!) can make fun of themselves. (~7.5MB, right-click and save as)
