TIL a guy at the bus stop told me his favorite show got canceled after one season and now I can't stop thinking about it

He said 'The Finder' only got 13 episodes and it had this whole plot about his dad that never got resolved, which hit different because my own dad walked out when I was 12. Anyone else got a show that ended on a cliffhanger that still bugs you?

Wait, did he tell you his dad walked out too or was that your own thing? Either way, that's rough. I've got a show called "Terriers" that still bugs me. It was this detective show from years ago, only got one season, and the finale ends with a huge mystery just hanging there. It's like they knew they were getting canceled and just left everything open anyway. Honestly, sometimes I still wonder what would have happened, and it's been over a decade.

The part about "it's like they knew they were getting canceled and just left everything open anyway" really gets me. I've seen that happen with a handful of shows and it's honestly the worst way to go out. Terriers was one of those shows I kept hearing good things about but never caught when it was on. That kind of unresolved ending just sticks with you way longer than a proper finale would. It's like the show is still haunting you years later because you never got closure.
