* ''Series/OneOfUsIsLying'': The first season ends with Addy, Cooper, Bronwyn, Nate and Janae all being targeted by a new stalker. Later so does the second season, with Fiona apparently poisoned in jail and some new person (perhaps Bronwyn) being murdered outside. This will never get resolved due to the show's cancellation.

* ''Series/Forever2014'':
** "The Man in the Killer Suit" wraps up just like any other episode, but then in its last minute [[spoiler: Henry gets in a cab, and the driver turns out to be Adam, who locks him in and speeds off.]]
** At the end of "Best Foot Forward" one cliffhanger interrupts another. Jo has just told Henry she called off her trip to Paris with Isaac because she realized she didn't want to go ''with Isaac'', but before she can really answer his question about why, Abraham interrupts, leaving the relationship hanging — in order to tell Henry [[spoiler:"I found Mom."]]

Overprotective Dad has been disambiguated


* ''Series/TenThingsIHateAboutYou'': Had a pretty decent cliff hanger for the season one finale. [[OverprotectiveDad Walter]] walked in on Kat and Patrick right after they finished having sex. Bianca and Dawn quit the cheerleading squad in protest over their friend Chastity being unfairly kicked off, only to find out that Chastity is transferring schools and they didn't have to quit. Bianca's boyfriend Joey had become a contestant on a reality show and she tunes in just in time to see him kissing another one of the contestants. Then the network decided not to renew the show and the season finale became an unresolved series finale. Though the [[WordOfGod series creator]] was nice enough to tell fans [[http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/06/07/10-things-i-hate-about-you-season-two/ how things would have developed if the series had continued]]. Basically, [[spoiler: Kat and Patrick's relationship would grow closer, though they'd eventually clash about college.(Kat wants to go and wants Patrick to go, Patrick doesn't think college is his thing.) We'd meet Patrick's mom and stepdad, and Walter would become a sort of father figure to Patrick. Kat's other possible love interest, Blank, would be around, but it wasn't quite going to turn into a full-fledged love triangle. Joey would get kicked off the reality show, causing him to lose a bit of his spark. His and Bianca's problems(from his cheating and bit of a personality change) would lead to Bianca confiding in Cameron, which would lead to a Bianca/Joey/Cameron love triangle. Chastity was going to be gone for good, since the actress quit the show, and Dawn would be given a bigger role to compensate]].

* ''Series/SeventhHeaven'': A few season finales have ended on cliffhangers, with the 7th season being the worst offender. [[spoiler: Is Lucy pregnant? What happened that brought the head of the church and the police force to the Camdens' front door to talk to Eric immediately? Who did Mary elope with? Did Roxanne and Chandler get married?]] Of course, it was all resolved next season. [[spoiler: Lucy wasn't pregnant, Simon got into a car accident that resulted in a young boy's death, Mary eloped with Carlos, and Roxanne and Chandler break up. Although we never did find out what happened to [[HookerWithAHeartOfGold Christine]] or why [[BrotherChuck Cecilia]] disappeared in early season 9…]]

* ''Series/{{Grimm}}'': Had this happen for a mid season break, just after an old enemy had returned, his best friend had been hospitalized, and immediately after Nick has found out who has been having an (unwilling) affair with his girlfriend. They seemed to be aware of how this would make the fans feel, however. 2 seconds after "To Be Continued" showed up on the screen, it was followed by "...sorry"
