in like flint 

To have quickly or easily achieved a goal or gained access as desired, sometimes in a sexual manner.

In Like Flint was a sequel to the James Coburn movie Our Man Flint and was a play on words from the original phrase "in like Flynn" that was coined by reporters about the time of the 1943 statutory rape trial of Errol Flynn.

In like Flynn or in like Flint mean the same thing and don't let some Nazi Fascist pick your allusion and allegory for you. Personally, I prefer "flint", even if your audience doesn't know who Errol Flynn and Derek Flint are, then at least word at least lends itself to a spark.

You can be "in like" anything you want it to be; in like Flynn, in like Flint, in like Bill Clinton...... take your pick! Hopefully, you've tailored phrasing to your audience.
If you're having a party tonight then I'm in like flint.

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!
