The practice, exercised almost exclusively by well-known, white, straight, cis men, of taking a creation (their own, a collaborative work, or another's) and attempting to improve upon it in a way that diminishes the quality of the work.
Named after Steven Moffat, who took over as the main writer of Doctor Who after Russel T. Davies left. Moffat's attempts to make each season he worked on more special and complex than the last ended up making the most recent season (season 10) into an overcomplicated, confusing mess, with plot threads left hanging and an unsatisfying conclusion.

Get the Ethan Moffatmug. Depending on the gender of the person, the results vary. For most men, this word usually means strong, or muscular. They tend to have nice hair and teeth and have a great sense of humor. For the females, they tend to be very slutty, or having lots of sex appeal. Most men want to get with Tyra Moffatt's because they have slammin' bodies and are very trustworthy.
Dude, he's so damn Tyra Moffatt. I'd do him. I'd do him good.
Oh boy. That girl over there was so Tyra Moffat. DAYUM SHE FINE.
