* ''[[Sliders]]'' was canceled at the end of its fifth season on a [[Cliff Hanger]], after a [[Psychic Powers|Psychic]] had just told the heroes that [[Everybody Dies|Everybody Is Going To Die]]. Fans were not exactly broken up about the finale, as the show [[Jump the Shark|hadn't been worth watching for years]] anyway.

* ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' seems to have fallen victim to this. Due to its abrupt cancellation, it ended with many unresolved plotlines and unexplored characters. The final episode itself only resolved a ''fraction'' of the many plot points introduced earlier in the season.

* ''[[Sonic Sat AM]]'' had a very resolving ending...until the last 10 seconds, where they pull a cliff hanger on the audience.
