Infotainment
A poor excuse for large television networks to fill up on-air space: an attempt to sell people things that barely work, things that they dont need and things that are quite pointless in today's society.
Dodgey American acting and heaps of photoshopping appeals to the emotions of many stay at home parents, the elderly or teenagers with access to their parent's credit card.
It is sad to think a television station exists that plays repeats of hundreds of pathetic commercials, 24hours a day. WOW.

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!
