When did the Dukes of Hazzard "Jump the Shark"?

Are you all familiar with the term "Jump the Shark"? I wasn't until I came across this site, so here it is:

"It's a moment. A defining moment when you know that your favorite television program has reached its peak. That instant that you know from now on...it's all downhill. Some call it the climax. We call it jumping the shark."

The term comes from an episode of the Happy Days when "The Fonz" literally jumped a shark on water skis...or something.

Anyway, the page for the DoH where people vote and comment on when they believe the DoH "jumped the shark" is here. There are a ton of comments and it is a pretty entertaining read. Some of the comments will no doubt irritate DoH fans because of the ignorance in regard to the show that is displayed.

So did the DoH "jump the shark"? If so; when?

We've discussed this in other forums. "Strange Visitor to Hazzard" was certainly our vote. The first time we watched it, the first thing I thought was "Oh, we must be getting to the last episode soon. Then TNN will start over from season 1. That's good. I'd like to see the pilot episode again." It was a no brainer.

I don't know about some of the comments on that website though. I wonder if some of those people are watching the same show.
