Pizza Shift 

For those in the Late Night Food and Drink Service Industry.

The Pizza Shift starts when the last customer leaves and ends when the last worker leaves.

During these end of night duties, coworkers reflect on and tell the tales of the evening.

Bartenders tell stories of their regulars. Bouncers seeing who saw the funniest thing of the night. Kitchen staff making a snack, etc.

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!
