Bruggles Effect

The "Bruggles Effect" kicks in when a member of the band "The Bruggles" absolutely slays on stage, blowing everyone's minds with their killer performance and effortless charm. It leads to fans practically jumping on the band member after their performance, wanting to rip off their clothes to show their adoration and desire for connection, all thanks to the magnetic allure and rockstar vibes of the Bruggles.
Dude, did you see Paul after the Viennesse Ball? That guy really took advantage of the Bruggles effect.

The New Coach Effect

The positive effect a new coach has on his football team, immediately following his appointment.
A football team appoint a new coach after a run of poor form where the previous coach has either been sacked or has resigned from his position.

The mere change of coach is enough to turn the teams fortunes around, instantly. This is known as the new coach effect.

The Graduation Effect

The phenomenon in which an old piece of media is constantly brought up in defense of a washed up artist, only for that old piece of media to be nothing special. Famous examples include statements such as: "But Kanye made Graduation" or: "But M. Night Shyamalan made The Sixth Sense."
Dude, that album wasn't that great. You're just falling for The Graduation Effect.

the AMC effect

The AMC effect is when AMC will produce an original show, it will get praised but eventually lose relevancy, and then at least a decade later it will get a resurgence in popularity online. The new fans of the show will usually completely miss the message that the show was trying to tell.
The AMC effect:
Walter White is idolized as a big strong manly hero, and his wife as seen as an annoying bitch becaue she's reluctant on Walt cooking meth, even though the point of breaking bad was to criticize traditional masculinity, this is especially clear with "The Fridge Scene"
on TIkTok, there was a video captioned "Dad my pronouns are-" and the video below it was The Walking Deads Rick Grimes making a vague bodily threat, it gained thousands of views. it was lost on the creator that the show as well as the myriad of spinoffs and multimedia extentions of the original comic book have tons of queer characters.

soap opera effect

A term used to describe the hyper-realistic look of video content that can occur due to high frame rates or certain video processing settings, making everything appear overly smooth and artificial—similar to the visual style of daytime soap operas. This effect can detract from the intended cinematic experience.
I recently picked up all five seasons of The Twilight Zone on Blu-ray. It had been remastered in HD producing a crystal clear and perfect picture, but it was too clean. It was noticeable the show was filmed on a set and at times gave a 'soap opera effect'.
