here in Tinsel Town, "jumping the shark" means going bad. Supposedly, the phrase came about because in the show "Happy Days" (the one with the Fonz), one of the characters was water-skiing and literally jumped the shark. From then on, the show was (allegedly) not worth watching and it was soon canceled.
