corporate stooge 

A person who supports the position of corporations without considering how others, particularly workers, are affected, as a result of propaganda or being paid off.
Yo Denarius, that guy on TV who says Americans benefit from outsourcing is a corporate stooge. He ignores that many of these companies which are outsourcing receive tax breaks, and by sending production overseas will be able to dodge domestic taxes, thus worsening the budget deficit. Furthermore, Americans will now have to compete with the slave wages of the Third World.

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!
