The Far Side

Easily the best comic strip ever made, however, Calvin and Hobbes is a close second. Written by Gary Larson, it is unfortunate that many people don't pay attention to The Far Side because some (Or most) of the jokes are difficult to grasp and require a semi-insane mind to laugh at.
One of the most controversial Far Side comics had alligators gathered around an old-fashioned washtub with a caption that read "Bobbing for poodles". Little did most people know that Larson had another caption in mind: "Bobbing for babies".

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!
