Chiralism 

The act or practice of keeping one in suspense, especially with erotic undertones.

A stripper would be a “chiralist”, for example. The Japanese “panty shot” is probably the best example of why this term comes to us from the land of the rising sun. The word itself, though, is of unknown origin. It appears in the song D-City Rock by Teddyloid from the Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt soundtrack.

The word 'tease' is also similar to chiralism, but does not fully encompass the idea; chiralism is not always intentional.

churnalism 

Term coined by author Nick Davies to describe poor practices of modern day journalists who "churn" or recycle news stories off the wire or internet without appropriate critical investigation.
Where once journalists were seen travelling out and about in the search for facts, a large majority are now, literally, chained to their desks waiting for the next major scoop; eager to be the first to report on the topic and thus draw traffic to their news sites... this is churnalism.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
