Well no, by strict definition it didn't. That's not what Jumping the Shark means. Collapse doesn't mean Jumping the Shark. Like you're alluding to, Jumping the Shark implies they're out of ideas and there's nothing left but crazy stuff. The show is just going on despite them being it being over from a story aspect. Game of Thrones they weren't out of ideas. The ideas were just bad. Or more specifically the execution and writing of ideas was bad. But everything that happened in Game of Thrones is stuff that was foreshadowed in the first season or two. Nothing was tacked on. Dragons and living dead army was always going to happen from the first few episodes that was in the cards.
For me, Arya Stark jumped the shark, more specifically, jumped out of the darkness and performed an impossible feat within the framework of the fiction.
In what regard?
