I think it's somewhat appropriate to post what jumping the shark really means, because some people seem to not know how to use the term properly.
Jumping the shark is a colloquialism coined by Jon Hein and used by TV critics and fans to denote the point in a television program's or film series's history where the plot veers off into absurd story lines or out-of-the-ordinary characterizations. This usually corresponds to the point where a show with falling ratings apparently becomes more desperate to draw in viewers. In the process of undergoing these changes, the TV or movie series loses its original appeal. Shows that have "jumped the shark" are typically deemed to have passed their peak.

I don't think Family Guy jumped the shark, it's my favorite out of all of them. South Park hasn't either. Simpsons I can agree with, I still like it, but it's not as funny as it was.

Simpsons has become less funny than the original.
Heroes NEVER jumped the shark Neither did family guy or South park.
