When something that was hyped to be great turns out to be mediocre, especially when you really should have known better in the first place.
This differs from jump the shark because it refers to something that was never good to begin with, versus something that was good and went bad.

Snakes on a Plane the movie is the example that inspired this phrase.
Jump the snake:
You can't say that Josh's blog jumped the snake, because it was so darn good until the last two posts. Then he got preachy, and the magic died. I weep for my loss.

Get the Jump On The Bandwagonmug. The act of literally jumping a car over a curb, usually done under one of two instances:
1. A drunk driver wiping out
or
2. Someone is intending to hit someone
The second condition happens more in video games than in real life, and the phrase was often heard back in the mid-90's by players of Twisted Metal. It can be heard more now by GTA players, as the shouting of "jump the curb!" at the player is an encouragement to run over pedestrians.
