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!'

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
