Scooby-Doo: The show Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo introduced Scrappy-Doo, Scooby's cousin, who is a really annoying character and acts as if he is the "savior" in almost every episode.

It has been speculated that the reason for this is so that Hartman could move on to other projects it was only when he left Nickelodeon several months after the show's final episode aired that the show was officially canceled.

Her introduction (along with the tenth season's terrible quality similar to that of the previous season) ended up canceling the series. But the straw that broke the camel's back was in Season 10, where they introduced Chloe Carmichael, an utter Mary Sue. Fortunately, he was taken off after the ninth season. Then, things got worse in Season 9 with the introduction of Sparky, a fairy dog that would be the new mascot of Timmy. However, the show truly started to take a nosedive in Season 7 following the debut of Ray DeLaurentis as head writer and co-executive producer alongside creator Butch Hartman's supposedly declining interest. Since then, many people felt that the show relied too much on "whacky baby shenanigans" even though most of the episodes in Season 6 including the following seasons afterward did not even revolved around Poof nor did he change the dynamic between Timmy Turner, Cosmo and Wanda that much.

The Simpsons: After the infamous episode "The Principal and the Pauper", the series has been continuously trying to create shocking moments and episodes, such as killing off Rabbi Krustofski or having Homer and Marge undergo a fake divorce as part of ratings traps in a desperate attempt to keep ratings from sagging.The aforementioned episode in itself also disappointed the public, because in it Fonzie literally jumps over a tiger shark while riding on water skis, ignoring and undoing his character's development and creating a blatant and huge discrepancy, as in an earlier episode he got badly injured after having jumped with a motorcycle over more than a dozen of barrels and thus claimed he would never do such a dangerous thing again. Fan consensus is that, of its eleven seasons, only the first four and a half are worth watching.

After the Season 4 episode "Hollywood: Part 3", the show centered around Fonzie and his friends, throwing away the Cunningham family (because he was the most popular character), and quality nosedived as a result. Happy Days: The first example of "jumping the shark" and also the trope namer.
