Jumping the Shark - with Don Most - Part I

Most(no pun intended) have heard the term "Jump the Shark", but so few know from where it originated. America's Podcaster, Kurt Caceres, introduces us to its birth on the legendary television show, Happy Days. Little does he know that his guest, Don Most, who played Ralph Malph on the series, is the first to have coined the term before they even shot the episode. According to Ron Howard, after they did the first reading of this now famous episode, Don pulled him aside and said in horror, "He jumps a Shark?". The rest is history, and Don shares with us the audition process that landed him one of the most iconic television characters in modern era Hollywood. Ironically, he originally turned down the role, but his agent just so happened to play basketball with Garry Marshall and Don's life would change forever.
