Genshafting 

To attempt to block or hinder someone else's success in your field/industry though backroom dealings and other means of influence. These attempts are generally done by someone who perceives you as a threat. Often, these attempts are obvious and make the genshafter look desperate to maintain the status quo.

Named after Judy Genshaft, the president of the University of South Florida, who continues to try and block the University of Central Florida, another nearby state school on the rise, from entering the same NCAA conference as USF as not to weaken her institution.
"By blocking UCF from procuring big-time BCS money to fund its athletic program, USF is "Genshafting" the State of Florida out of millions of dollars." -Mike Bianchi, Orlando Sentinel

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!
