The chant used by Anette Olzon, lead singer of Finnish symphonic band Nightwish, to get the audience into songs. It originally started out as simply "HEY!" but it soon morphed into her iconic HEP HEPs!
Formed from the HEP HEPs, there is a HEP HEP Army, which is joined by simply chanting "HEP! HEP! HEP! HEP!" during an appropriate time in a Nightwish song.
"Ok, HEP! HEP! HEP! HEP!"
"And one more time, come on and HEP! HEP!"
"I went to a Nightwish concert last night: I joined the HEP HEP Army!"
"I love Anette's HEP HEPs: they really get the audience going!"

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!
