"Supernatural" Jumping the Shark?

Recently, it was announced that a third Winchester brother would be showcased on Supernatural in an episode entitled, "Jump the Shark." This spurred the folks at TV Guide into asking creator Eric Kripke about the new brother, as well as if he thinks the show has, indeed, jumped the shark. This quote by him makes me giggle:

And stay tuned for next season, when the boys take trips to London and Hawaii (haunted Tiki dolls!) and Sam and Ruby get married. And Ted McGinley joins the cast as the thoughtful (but hot!) college professor."
