They dropped a couple of doozies during last weeks debate…
==============
I went cool turkey (<= that’s not quite “cold turkey”, but pretty close) away from cable news while at the beach.
On return, I jumped off the wagon by watching parts of the Democratic debates.
I was expecting entertainment value … and I wasn’t disappointed.
Reminded me of the old Happy Days tv series that – among other things – coined the the phrase “jumping the shark”.
Ratings were slipping, so they had Fonzie (Henry Winkler) jump a shark while water skiing … hoping (but failing) to generate some ratings-boosting buzz.
So now, according to Wikipedia:
Jumping the shark is the moment when something that was once popular that no longer warrants the attention it previously received makes an attempt at publicity, which only serves to highlight its irrelevance..
How does that apply to the Dem debates?
