Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

1. In general, Status Quo Is God for "This fact cannot change." In Mr. Coyote's case, Failure Is the Only Option.

2. I'm not familiar with this one. It might depend on why it's kept secret and how hard anyone is trying to figure it out. Running Gag comes to mind if it's played for laughs. Running gags, by definition, almost never get "resolved".

If the entire show is based around a mystery and once it's solved, there is no more show, then it's a Driving Question. (A Driving Question may be solved in the series finale though.)
