Line 123:
* The 2002 sci-fi series ''[[Odyssey 5]]'' ends with astronaut Angela Perry abducted by the AI's and scientist Kurt Mendel being arrested on suspicion of killing her. Plus the mysterious Cabal, which the team assume have something to do with the AI's and the impending destruction of the Earth, turn out to be a government force trying to ''stop'' the AI's and who believe that the Odyssey 5 team are the traitors.
* ''[[Kyle XY]]'' ended with Kyle uncovering a nefarious plot and discovering {{spoiler|the identity of his mother}}. It's left at a Cliffhanger with Kyle only partially stopping the plot. It's left unresolved who his true love interest is. [[Word of God]] described the rest of the series in broad strokes. Very annoying as the series was cancelled halfway through the season and no moves were made to provide even the slightest of a better resolution.
▲** The last episode before the cancellation reveals that one of the leaders of the Phoenix Organization appears to be John's best friend. [[Word of God]] claims that this is false, though, and the man was supposed to have been revealed an impostor who underwent plastic surgery.
* [[Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series)|The original ''Battlestar Galactica'']] got cut short after the final episode "The Hand of God", although it did get a follow up of sorts with ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', which original series fans [[Fanon Discontinuity|prefer not to talk about]], and which itself was canceled after only ten episodes. Then it got [[Remake|re-imagined]] into the [[retool]]ed [[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|2004-2009 ''Battlestar Galactica'']].
* ''[[Sliders]]'' was canceled at the end of its fifth season on a [[Cliff Hanger]], after a [[Seers|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.
Line 153 ⟶ 152:
* Being a [[Sketch Comedy]], ''[[The Amanda Show]]'' itself didn't suffer from this after its abrupt cancellation, but [[Show Within a Show]] ''Moody's Point'' had ended the final season on a huge [[Cliff Hanger]] in which the main character learned that she'd been [[Switched At Birth]] and that she wasn't who she thought she was. Even creator Dan Schneider doesn't know what would have happened next, because he never got a chance to write it.
* ''[[The Sarah Connor Chronicles]]'' ends abruptly due to this shortly after Angsty Teen!John Conner gets himself sent to a future where no one recognizes his name due to being pulled out of the timeline.
== Newspaper Comics ==
* ''[[Little Orphan Annie]]'' ran as a serial strip in newspapers for 86 years until it was unceremoniously cancelled in 2010. The final strip inexplicably did not resolve the ongoing plotline, but instead [http://www.comicsalliance.com/2010/06/14/little-orphan-annie-ending/ ended on Annie being held in South America by a serial murderer and Daddy Warbucks staring hopelessly into the distance believing his beloved daughter to be murdered by gangsters.] The sun ''won't'' come up tomorrow in this universe...
