Tom Sawyer Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 And if so, when? 2112? Hemispheres? Moving Pictues? Rush in Rio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrossedSignals Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I'd say Hold Your Fire is when they began a noticeable decline in quality, but IMO it was hardly unrecoverable.... they still put out Counterparts and Vapor Trails, both of which are in my top 10.

Janie Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 The guys are still going strong. If they were going to jump the shark, it would have happened a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThinkingBig Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 RUSH is a cult hard rock / prog rock music act not a popular TV show with an ensemble of characters. Do people not understand the term 'jump the shark'? That's like asking, has RUSH ruined their knees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term is generally used to describe the moment in the evolution of a television show when it begins a decline in quality that is beyond recovery. There are also a couple of variations on the theme, for instance in comic book movies it can be known as "Throwing the S" (a reference to the WTF moment in Superman II when he ripped off his S and threw it at the bad guy) Edited June 4, 2012 by Your_Lion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
