gimmick play

An offensive football play that involves trickery and deception, intended to give the offensive team an advantage by confusing the defense.

Gimmick plays are easy to defend against if the defense sees it coming, so they are only run once in a while.

Gimmick plays are also known as gadget plays.
The flea flicker, the halfback pass, and the double reverse are some examples of gimmick plays.

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!
