Being a Cowboys fan.

When the conspiracy against the Cowboys became > that Cowboys will to resist. Coincides with Jerry Jones issuing apologies and Zeke giving up his fight against Roger the Clown.

Homeland hasnt been the same since Brody was killed. House Of Cards should of ended when Underwood became President. (And the fact they might attempt a final season with Underwood killed off cause of the Spacey allegation(s?) is laughable. Sex offender or not, House of Cards is nothing without Kevin Spacey.....I dont know what the moment was, but Orange is the new Black doesnt feel the same anymore. And last one I can think of is South Park, Ive been an avid fan since the premiere in 97, but I just dont get excited or laugh as much as I used to most episodes. I think at this point Matt Stone and Trey Parker only keep it goin cause its essentially Comedy Central's own Simpsons.....

I thought the same thing about homeland but they made the following seasons their own. I loved the Brody years. * Brody is great in “Billions”!

House of Cards. Agreed, it’s been a joke since. “It’s my turn”... please!

South Park was when they did the Coon episodes, maybe actually before that when they changed to better animation.

The first 5 minutes of billions really sets a interesting tone for the show.

"Bonanza" didn't jump the shark after Adam was written out of the show, but it started a slow decline. Didn't care much for the character of "Candy" and when the added the kid after that (Jamie?) is was just limping along.

I'd love to answer this but to be quite honest I don't know of anything in any of my favorite shows that I'd say this about. Maybe some one can tell me where they think it happened on the following shows, if anyone else watched them that is (I'm sure they did) so I have a better idea of what this whole thing really is. Most of whats been mentioned here I never watched enough of to get that kind of sense of them anyway.

Sons of Anarchy
Breaking Bad
Walking Dead (Although I think the majority of what I've seen is people picking the hospital or the fall of the prison being where the show kind of did this whole thing)
Sons never jumped because it was never believable..... they were always escaping with elaborate plans that always worked but SOA Dublin was terrible...... the CIA/Cartel stuff was awful......but I loved every episode

Breaking Bad was still peaking...... wanted to see Jesse make it to Alaska.... no cheap tricks but Skyler giving 500k to her boyfriend pushed the limits

Can a show jump the shark after one season?
Not a favorite by any means but Kevin Can Wait, after one year they actually say they're out of ideas, kill off the wife/mother, bring in Leah Remini and make it King of Queens with Children. Oh and Remini should sue her plastic surgeon.
Peaky Blinders was unwatchable for me Season 2...... the music and accents made it too hard to follow

I would say the zombie parade was the moment.

Breaking bad Series should have ended with Hanks death.
