Luna Park 

A widely used name of amusement parks commonly used from the 1900s to 1930s. The original Luna Park in Coney Island, New York operated from 1903 to 1944. The park was an instant success and inspired other showmen from around the world to open their own Luna Parks. A large feature of the parks was their lighting displays, each housing thousands of lightbulbs lining rides and buildings (typically very large and using a mix of architectural styles).

The most commonly known are in Melbourne, Australia (opening in 1912), Sydney, Australia (opening in 1935) and in 2010, Astroland, an amusement park located near the site of the original Luna Park was renamed to Luna Park. It is home to the famous Coney Island Cyclone, opening in 1923.

Due to how popular these parks were, the phrase Luna Park now means 'amusement park' in some European languages.

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!
