Shitcom Syndrome

Much like stockholm syndrome (where kidnap victims feel loyal to their abductors), SHITCOM SYNDROME happens when a bad sitcom is thrust upon the viewing public so much it ends up being very popular, battering them into submission until it is named 'The Nation's No. 1 comedy show'
Two and a Half men - broadcast in many countries more than 3 times a week - we don't have a chance!!

'Man, I think I've got Shitcom Syndrome, I laughed at Two and Half Men last night'

'Oh my God, flagellate yourself with the Tv guide quick!'
