When did Seinfeld jump the shark? 🦈

Season 8, Episode 1

Seinfeld is often considered to have 'jumped the shark' with the departure of co-creator Larry David after season 7. The show shifted in tone and humor style, focusing more on absurd and outlandish plotlines rather than the observational humor that initially defined it. Season 8's premiere marks this transition, where noticeable changes in writing and character development began, leading to a decline in the show's original charm.
