Manna for the mindless 

Manna for the mindless is a disparaging description of television programmes that do no more than fill up air time. The programmes that are banal, trivial and boring and which, if they were a person, would be described as a WOFS. You know the sort of crap, pretty well all of daytime television, soap operas screened at any time, moronic game shows, chat shows featuring liggers or z-list celebrities, the list just goes on. It is the sort of programme which doesn’t require dumbing down as it is targeted at fuckwits or insomniacs who need something other than drugs to help them sleep.
Before twenty-four seven television was inflicted on a long-suffering human race, manna for the mindless was typified by film serials where the hero always overcame impossible odds to rescue the heroine from an impossible situation and the villain was always defeated. Either that or the Hollywood musical of the 1950s such as Carousel or South Pacific, total shite consisting of totally forgettable songs, stilted dialogue and a non-existent plot.
"Jane, would you like to come bird watching, there’s a good chance of a peregrine’s mating display"
"No, I've got to watch Loose Women!"
"Manna for the mindless!"
The nickname for the relationship between Monica and Chandler from the TV show "FRIENDS".

It is a combination of their names and is also one of the few ships where the nickname has been used in the show.

Ross: Huh. Sound alike, too. So Mondler. Uh what, uh what you doing?
Chandler: What does it look like? I am cleaning.
"Mondler is so much cuter than Ross & Rachel"

A middler is made to sit at the middle of the table.

The middler is the designated person who you invite to the party that knows how to carry the conversation and keep it interesting. Every dinner party and gathering with a varied group of friends (especially if new people are introduced) needs a talented middler.

Coined by Larry David in Curb Your Enthusiasm.
The reason this dinner isn’t going well is because the wrong people are in the middle. Andrew and Caitlin can’t handle being there and just don’t have the right personality for it. They’re horrible middlers and can’t keep the convo interesting.

Manna for the mindless 

Deriving from the tag 'Manna for the mind' used to describe books and literature, 'Manna for the mindless' is a disparaging but accurate description of banal entertainment of any sort, particularly daytime television, long running soaps, stupid game shows, chat shows and so on. It consists of material that is so dumb it doesn't require 'dumbing down' and is no more than prdigested pap which can be understood by people with a below normal IQ. Before the advent of twenty-four seven television manna for the mindless was typified by the Hollywood musical of the 1950s. These consisting entirely of eminently forgettable songs joined together by crappy dialogue and a plot so thin you could shoot peas through it.
