A Different World - Jumped the shark once Whitley and Dwayne decided to get married.....the show just slowly declined after that. The new college kids didn't seem like appealing characters.
New York Undercover - When Eddie got killed.....straight up turrible. 

That 70s Show - When Eric left and they replaced him with Randy

to me, A Different World jumped when Lisa Bonet and the white girl left after season one, cause it was her show. 
Speaking of which....

The Fresh Prince of Bel Air- When Will's pops came to visit and when the OG Hilary left. 

Family Matters- When the OG Harriet left and the show started to get more cartoonish with Urkels inventions.

8 Simple Rules- when John Ritter died 

Malcom in the Middle- When Francis left military school and started working at the ranch

The Simpsons- too many to list 

Saturday Night Live- When Will Ferrell left 

Monday Night Raw- When Vince bought WCW since the show has no competition, aside from TNA, but mostly when the went the G-rated route  

Jersey Shore- The first five minutes 

The Tonight Show- Jay's final show from his first stint before Conan took over

Keeping Up With the Kardashians- the spinoffs 

Doogie Howser M.D.- When Doogie turned down a Laker Girl 

The OC- Marissa's death 

SportsCenter- Lebron's decision

Monday Night Football- when they moved to cable in 2006 

Seinfeld- Elaine straightens her hair, no Jerry standup intros and the crowd stop applauding whenever Kramer enters Jerry's room 

Cheers- when Rebecca replaced Diane 

that's all I have for now.
 
^ I guess you can say that, but the show was much more interesting after....Denise leaving was a blessing in disguise. The show was bland as hell with her there.
 
pretty sure he meant vivian

Family Matters- When the OG Harriet left and the show started to get more cartoonish with Urkels inventions.

SportsCenter fell off the summer that Brett Favre retired, but came back later and signed with the Jets.
 
inb4 Gus' face.

The Office -- when Jim and Pam got engaged.

24 -- the nuke going off.

Battlestar Galactica -- when they reveal 4 of the last 5 models.

Lost -- depending on how you look at it, Ana Lucia or the Jacob episode.

Dexter -- Jimmy Smits (but they came back strong) but then Julia Stiles.

Boardwalk Empire -- in the casting room with Buscemi *flamesuit on*

Friday Night Lights -- what Landry and Tara did (but they erased the whole season anyways, so

)

*Monday Night RAW -- when The Rock left

The West Wing -- when they fired Aaron Sorkin, cuz they didn't know he needed coke to write 22 solid episodes of a really smart show a year by himself

Heroes -- when the big 1st season finale Peter-Sylar fight looked like some Shark Attack 3 bs.

The Killing -- the teacher becomes a suspect.

my brain tired
 
The Simpsons - Two words: Armin Tanzarian.

The Office - Maybe when Jim & Pam got engaged. Or maybe it was earlier with Michael as Survivorman.

there were 2 hilarys?
 
Lyricist Lounge show, My Brother & Me and 3 South didn't have many seasons so they didin't get a chance to "jump the shark."
 
Monday Night Raw- when they started the draft
Buffy The Vampire Slayer- out of nowhere Buffy has a little sister, needed more crossover episodes with Angel too
Dawson's Creek- after Pacey took Joeys virginity
Saved By The Bell: The College Years- it was decent at first, but then the Zack and Kelly thing started again
Unhappily Ever After- When they killed Jennie off and tried to bring her back
Friends- When Joey and Rachel had a thing, I continued watch, still top 3 shows of all
One Tree Hill- After they left high school


I know a lot of people will say Martin after the problems with Gina, but I disagree. The episode on the cruise was one of my favorites. I think the show could've continued without her.
 
Doug - starting from the first episode when it went from Nickelodeon to Disney
