Yep. New one on me too. I've never watched that show before. I stopped with the video when it got to "Showmance." Ugh! How can you stand that junk? It makes Gilligan's Island feel like highbrow entertainment!

Another term I recently heard, can't remember where, is "Bromance." Two guys who are best buddies and hang out together a lot--straight, not actually romantic.
