nothing (used by American Italians and Mafia figures)
Look at Jim Hogg. He promised he was gonna send me five hundred within two weeks of his release. And guess what? I got nothin'. I got ungatz. The word is Jim Hogg copped some cases and he's sittin' in a county jail. He might get six or seven for some silly-ass petty crimes. The guys a fuckin' jabroney. For most prisoners on the way out its like this: 'I'm gonna get out, bro, I'll take care of you. I'll send you a twenty.' And I say, 'OK. Go on and live your life, motherfucker.' It just ain't gonna happen. At the time they mean it, but once they get out there and taste that Chivas Regal or Old Milwaukee they ain't gonna give a fuck about an old lifer in the state pen. Think I expect it? The only way you can disappoint me is if I expect anythin' from you. And I expect ungatz.

"Ugatz" is spelled correctly in the Neapolitan dialect of Italian, "o cazzo." The Italian equivalent is "il cazzo." The masculine definite article "il" in Italian is "o" in Neapolitan, meaning "the."

It literally translates to "cock/penis", but is also used in Italian as the English words "fuck" or "shit."
ITALIAN
"Fatti i cazzi tuoi!"

ENGLISH LITERAL
"Mind your cocks!"

ENGLISH INTERPRETED:
"Mind your fucking shit/business!"
(in this case, "cazzo" is used like "fuck/shit" in English.)

An example of "ugatz" used in Italian-American English would be...

"You said this investment was a sure thing! Now look at my account balance! I've got ugatz here!

In this instance, "cazzo" is used like English's "shit," meaning "nothing." So...

"You said this investment was a sure thing! Now look at my account balance! I've got nothin' here!"

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!
