- tarotuser 4y agoThe comparable analogy is someone giving you a book that has the last 20 pages cut out. And only when you're a few pages to the "end" do you realize that you'll never know the real resolution to the story. That's what ending on a cliffhanger is like. You know there's more, and completes the whole story.. but you'll never see/read it.
- HelloMcFly 4y agoThese shows are artistic creations. When it's clear that the painting is unfinished, and the artist's vision and intent incomplete, why bother? Not every show is like this, many say what they have to say in a single episode (many sitcoms, police procedurals) or season (e.g., Hacks, Watchmen, The Wire). But there are a lot of shows that are just unfinished works-in-progress without the end of their story.
