n. Short for No Joy in Mudville, this is an absurdly understated way to say catastrophe. Favored by aviators, the term derives from the baseball poem Casey at the Bat, where in the ninth inning with two outs and two men on base, Casey is poised to hit a home run and win the game.

After acting like an entitled diva and refusing to swing at two good pitches, Casey takes a tremendous swing at the final pitch and (spoiler) strikes out.
Oh, somewhere in this favoured land the sun is shining bright,
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light;
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout,
But there is no joy in Mudville—mighty Casey has struck out.

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!
