Warning: Spoilers ahead!
Recently, I asked the BuzzFeed Community , "What canceled TV show's cliffhanger ending bothers you so much that you wish the series would get a reboot?"
Here are 14 of their top answers:
1. "I don't want, I NEED Netflix to bring back Julie and the Phantoms . They left it in that cliffhanger [when the boys didn't cross over and Caleb possessed Nick], and we didn't get a Juke kiss!"
"If they don't bring it back, I will not forgive them, 'cause it lasted as long as the Brazilian original one, and it did ten times better. They really should bring it back."
4. "The one that bothers me so much is iCarly because Paramount+ decided to end it before we get to finally see and hear what happened with their mom."
6. " 1899 on Netflix. That show was so incredible, such a diverse and multicultural cast and production team. The story was unique and so planned out. I know they planned a second season, so they ended the first not fully resolving the plot. But that last scene [when Maura breaks out of the simulation and wakes up in reality] opened up the story for a whole other chapter we will never get to see..."
"Totally agree! That was one of the most captivating and original shows I had seen in a long time. And that ending scene in space was completely genius IMO and made me so excited for a second season. I’m so disappointed it got cancelled."
8. " A League of Their Own ! Carson's husband showed up at the end [to surprise her, but he accidentally saw her kiss Greta goodbye], and we have no idea what happened next."
9. "As a kid, I was so disappointed when My Babysitter's a Vampire was cancelled after the last episode ended with an explosion and no explanation for what happened to half of the characters."
10. "I'm old, so I have to throw it back to My So-Called Life . I'm still wondering if Angela finally gave Brian a chance [after finding out he helped write the love letter that Jordan gave her]."
12. " Stargate Universe . They literally had so many new worlds to explore and so much material to play with. There was enough lore to keep loyal viewers happy but plenty of novel ideas to introduce to draw in new watchers."
"Basically, I'm still grumpy about the cliffhanger ending [when the Destiny failed and Eli stayed behind to try to fix things] and will be until the end of time."
13. " The Royals ended with Willow marrying Robert because she loves him instead of exposing him in front of the world during her vows like she promised his family she'd do."
What, in your opinion, was the worst cliffhanger a TV series has ever ended on? What happened on the last episode, and why did it make you so upset? Share your answers in the comments!
