get down off your soapbox

In the days of early politics after 1776, long before television and radio, political candidates would stand on wooden boxes, often ''soapboxes'', in the town square in order to address large crowds. The term soapbox stuck, and ever since then has been used in instances when somebody tries to preach his or her personal views.

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!
