History WhatHappenedToTheMouse / WesternAnimation

*** The commentary discusses a deleted final scene where Homer has to deal with all the consequences of what he thought was his last day alive: not only is he stuck at the barbecue, but his father now wants to spend lots of time with him rather than having accepting their distant relationship, and Mr. Burns wants to talk to him after Homer insulted him and slapped his head like a bongo drum.

*** WordOfGod had it that Ursa's fate would be revealed in the sequel comic ''[[Comicbook/AvatarTheLastAribenderThePromise The Promise]]''. It never happened, but now they're saying the ''next'' sequel comic, ''The Search'', will deal with it.

** They teased us in The ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' about [[spoiler:Ursa]]

*** WordOfGod has it that Ursa's fate will be revealed in the sequel comic ''The Promise.''
** There's also [[spoiler:the final fates of Smellerbee, Longshot, Long Feng and the Earth King.]] True the first three are probably dead and the fourth is on a LongBusTrip, but still.
*** As of the first scans from ''The Promise'', the sequel comic detailing the adventures of Team Avatar one year after the war, we can confirm the fates of three of those characters. [[spoiler: Smellerbee and Longshot are alive. We see them participating in a protest in one panel, and the two of them - alongside Sneers - are with the Gaang in another. We don't know how they made it out of Lake Laogai yet, but the comic will undoubtably give us an explanation when it comes out in January. Earth King Kuei is back in place as King of Ba Sing Se and makes an appearance in one of the first panels of the whole book.]]
*** Bugger them. Where's Cabbage Man? WHERE?! (Yea he was credited with helping with the SarcasmMode ''accurate'' play about the Avatar, but can he sell his cabbages in peace now that the Avatar has no FireLord to deal with)

** They teased us in The LegendOfKorra about [[spoiler:Ursa]]

** Remember Bart's ''StarTrek'' belt from the episode "The Homer They Fall"? Neither does he. The DVD commentary does make mention of how they pretty much abandoned the "Bart gets his ''StarTrek'' belt stolen" storyline for the "Homer becomes a boxer" storyline (which they also pointed out was a rehash of "Homerpalooza," only instead of Homer taking hits to the gut without feeling pain, it was hits to the head).

* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' Kitten disappears after her encounter with Starfire in "Calling All Titans" despite the fact that Killer Moth and Fang both appear in the BattleRoyaleWithCheese.

** In "Homer At The Bat", Ozzie Smith ends up visiting a literal tourist trap, the Springfield Mystery Spot, which turns out to be some kind of NegativeSpaceWedgie, and he promptly falls into it. In the snapshot at the end we can see his specter hovering over the rest of the group (presumably invisible to all save the viewers). We never find out if he managed to escape the Mystery Spot, [[TethercatPrinciple so as far as we know he's still falling through space and time...]]

* At the end of The Critic's run (at least a couple of seasons), Jay, who up to that point hasn't had much luck with women, was in a steady relationship with a mature, decent, likable woman, and despite a few stumbles, they were hitting it off great. Then comes the short-lived internet adaptation, and she's completely gone with no explanation (along with his son and longtime boss).

** What happened to the Delightful Children is also unknown, though with their final exit [[spoiler: it's assumed they drowned]].

*** Neither is James Woods.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' episode "You May Now Kiss the... Uh... Guy Who Receives" Chris' romance with the blonde girl vanishes after she talks to Chris outside the City Hall.** In the episode where the Griffin house gets possessed by poltergeists, Herbert the Pedophile fights back against a tree demon who is about to eat Chris and the two (Herbert and the tree) fall to their dooms after the tree splits the ground open. On the TV version, this counts as a "What Happened to the Mouse" moment because we never see Herbert or the tree for the rest of the episode. On the season four DVD, however, [[spoiler:there's an extra scene where, after Peter ditches the cursed skull in the trash as The Griffins drive away, Herbert and the tree come out of the hole and apologize to each other for fighting. Herb then invites the tree over to his house and asks him if he's a "giving tree" or a "receiving tree"]]. Apparently, [[MoralGuardians The FOX censors]] turned this BrickJoke into a WhatHappenedToTheMouse moment all because [[spoiler:they didn't approve of the anal sex joke implied in the "giving/receiving tree" line]].

** Remember Bart's ''StarTrek'' belt from the episode "The Homer They Fall"? Neither does he.

* ''CodenameKidsNextDoor'' is usually good with continuity, which makes this oversight all the more damning: In "Op FUGITIVE," the operatives and the head of decommissioning, #86, are going after an escaped operative scheduled for decommissioning. #86 briefly mentions sending their best spy, #362, to infiltrate the Delightful Children's mansion (where the escaped operative is entering). They appear to capture the escaped operative, but it then turns out that #362 was captured instead. #362 became a major character in her own right, but the show never got around to answering what happened to the escaped operative.

** He appears in the follow-up series ''Ben10UltimateAlien''.
* In ''KongTheAnimatedSeries'', no final fate for Tiger Lucy is given. In the final two episodes, every other enemy is defeated one way or another, but Tiger Lucy, the fourth of De La Porta's henchmen (who has the least screentime of the four) is never seen nor mentioned in the final episodes.

** In the first webisode, Jay mentions his "second divorce", implying that the relationship ended badly, but no details are given.

** He appears in the follow-up series ''Ben10Ultimate Alien''.

** When the boys set [[CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory Oompa Loompa-like Ba-Dink-A-Dinks]] free, they promise to "lay waste to the surface dwellers." But it's a one-shot gag -- so far, their plot thread hasn't been resolved. They've had a few minor background appearances in subsequent episodes, but... not knowing where they are can be AccidentalNightmareFuel.

* At the end of The Critic's run (at least a couple of seasons), Jay, who up to that point hasn't had much luck with women, was in a steady relationship with a mature, decent, likable woman, and despite a few stumbles they were hitting it off great. Then comes the short-lived internet adaptation, and she's completely gone with no explanation (along with his son and longtime boss).
** Actually in the first webisode, Jay mentions his second divorce, implying that the relationship ended badly.

** Project Carthage is mentioned once at the end of Season 2 as Franz Hopper's former employer, possible origin of the [[{{MIB}} Men In Black]] (who are themselves not explained) and motive for creating Lyoko and XANA... and is never mentioned again after that.

* The ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' episode "Hurricane!" has news reporter Craig get sucked up into the sky by the titular hurricane. A later scene has his boyfriend asking people if they've seen him, but it's not revealed whether he survived or if the storm killed him.
