Wrong like the air in Hong Kong 

Due to the high pollution levels in Hong Kong, the phrase "wrong like the air in Hong Kong" is used to describe a situation or state of well being that exhibits an air of unhealthiness.

The former British colony is affected by two sources of air pollution. One is local street level pollution, emitted primarily by diesel vehicles. The second is regional smog, caused by a combination of pollutants from motor vehicles, industry and power plants both in Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta region.

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government gives high priority to controlling both street level air pollution and smog; however, it still remains "wrong like the air!"

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!
