* ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes'': Due to being canceled after only two seasons, the show had a few of these. Notably, the heavily foreshadowed showdown with Surtur and the Enchantress never took place, and Maria Hill's repeated rants about a [[ComicBook/CivilWar2006 Superhuman Registration Act]] never panned out.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvengersAssemble'' Season 2 ended with ComicBook/CaptainAmerica and ComicBook/IronMan deciding that they needed to expand the team in order to face bigger threats, and the last shot showed them looking at images of a bunch of potential new recruits like ComicBook/BlackPanther, [[Characters/MarvelComicsCarolDanvers Captain Marvel]], ComicBook/DoctorStrange, and ComicBook/MoonKnight. The Season 3 premiere then opened up with none of these characters as part of the Avengers roster, with ComicBook/TheFalcon offhandedly mentioning that the expansion plan had been canceled. Later episodes did however find ways to incorporate some of the new recruits, but not in the original plan: they were part of a government sponsored team, then later filled in for the original Avengers when they disappeared.
* Due to being ScrewedByTheNetwork, ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' had to abort the Shards of Equinox arc, an arc that would have focused on finding the various personality shards of Equinox that were scattered through the universe. The GrandFinale episode even made a LampshadeHanging over the cancellation of the show by being about ''getting the show canceled''.

** "The Unstoppable Juggernaut" ends with ComicBook/{{Colossus}} declining an offer to join the team and saying that he intends to travel the country to find [[ComicBook/{{Magik}} Illyana]], his missing little sister. The next time Colossus shows up, he's still in New York, and Illyana is safely in Russia with their parents. There's no further mention of her supposed disappearance, and nothing to indicate she's ever even ''been'' to America.
** In the second episode of the "Beyond Good and Evil" arc, ComicBook/{{Apocalypse}} is able to keep ComicBook/{{Magneto}} in line by promising to resurrect his dead wife. This is never brought up again, and a later episode of the same storyline instead offers a completely different explanation for why Magneto chose to work for Apocalypse.
** The same episode has the {{Time Travel}}er Shard say that Archangel is destined to become a member of the X-Men. Despite this, Archangel never actually joins the team in any of the subsequent episodes. This is because "Beyond Good and Evil" was initially going to be the show's GrandFinale, and was planned to end with the team's line-up shifting. When the show was [[PostScriptSeason unexpectedly picked up for one more season]], the scene showing Archangel and the other new heroes joining the X-Men was scrapped.
** In Cyclops and Corsair's flashbacks to the plane crash in which they were separated, Scott is shown to have a younger brother. In another episode in the same season, "Cold Comforts", the X-Men meet the character Havok, whose powers Cyclops is shown to be mysteriously immune to and vice versa, and at the end of the episode it is strongly implied that Havok and Cyclops will meet again, foreshadowing that as in the comics, they will be revealed to be brothers. However, Havok never appears again.

Whether an ending is “satisfying” or not can be subjective, and an ending can still feel satisfying even with minor loose plot threads.

** This goes back to G1, where "The Rebirth" three-parter introduces a ton of new characters and situations... and suddenly has to ''wrap up the entire show,'' as during its production it was cut from ''a fourth season'' to a five-parter to a three-parter. The various comic series have faced the same problem, though with the [[ComicBook/TransformersGenerationOne Dreamwave Comics]] series, it had more to do with the death of the company itself. There's one exception to the rule: ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime.'' Despite all Hasbro's talk of the constant reboots ending in favor of a "[[Franchise/TransformersAlignedUniverse new, aligned continuity]]" producers plotted a three-season series with a beginning, middle, and end. When that end came a bit sooner than intended with season three's episode count getting cut down, it apparently didn't hamper them much. As such, we get the ''only'' western TF property to finish all it started and have a truly satisfying ending instead of a rushed wrap-up.

* In the third season of ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'', an ongoing plot thread dealt with Hank and Peggy attempting to have another baby but failing due to Hank's narrow urethra. What made this more aggravating for the Hills was that Hank's father Cotton had somehow managed to impregnate his wife Didi, with Cotton being 75 and Didi the same age as Hank. This thread followed only into the first episode of the following season and was then dropped. Though it was implied in "Next of Shin" that they would give up after they learned this was upsetting Bobby.

** "Surviving the Spiderbites" ends with TheReveal that Globgor wasn't merely a HeroWithBadPublicity but a true Mewman-eating monster warlord that celebrated violence against mewmans and even ate them, was responsible destroyed the Kingdom of the Spiderbites and the death of King Shastacan, this culminates in Eclipsa revealing that she wants to restore the Magic Book of Spells which leads to Star starting to distrust her and hiding the remain piece of the book she possess so Glosaryck doesn't restore it. Despite this seeming like important developments, they are completely ignored by later episodes. Globgor's less moral actions are ignored in later episodes and is treated once again as just a NiceGuy and Star never seems distrustful of Eclipsa again. The restoration of the Book of Spells is touched in one other episode where Eclipsa succesfully restored and then she never uses it again.

** "A Spell With No Name" involves the titular spell going rouge and being established as a spell so powerful it could destroy the multiverse. The ending of the episode teases that while the situation was controlled, the spell would strike back soon. The spell is used once in a later episode and it never goes rouge again.

* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'': The Zillo Beast Arc towards the end of season 2 deals with the Republic seeking to study the titular beast, due to it's scales being virtually impenetrable against any conventional weaponry and the possibilities this could mean for armor development for starships and soldiers. At the end of the arc, the Zillo Beast is killed, but the scientist in charge of studying it is then given orders to clone it as well. Both of these plots would remain completely unresolved until over a ''decade'' later when the spin-off show, ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheBadBatch'', which finally shows that the Empire did finally get around to cloning it. However, the initial reason the beast was even studied in the first place (for it's applications in armor development) apparently never went anywhere.
