This one always has bugged me. During early seasons of NCIS, it was established that Jenny Sheppard's dad was dead. But she met with a retired general who told her that her father had been there 3 weeks prior, smoking a cigar. She also came home and found a bottle of scotch in her study when she had it tested for fingerprints, it came back as belonging to her father. She deleted the results, or thought she did, as Abby retrieved them and then told Gibbs later. After Jenny's death, the whole matter was dropped. But they haven't tackled the question on whether or not her father is still alive. Hell, they still haven't figured out who killed Rene Benoit, who was mixed up in the whole situation with her father. I hope they eventually cover this storyline, but who knows. As to what happened to Ace in Doctor Who, that one bugged me for awhile as well. At least she didn't suffer the fate that Adric did. The words he uttered ... "Now I'll never know if I was right." They more or less showed Gibbs figure out that Jenny killed The Frog, presumably with the blessing of the CIA. He was killed with Jenny's gun, which in a flashback showed that Benoit gave back to her, meaning that she had the murder weapon in her possession. As far as Col. Sheppard goes, I cannot tell you. It is always possible that he comes back into play, but considering that there was a funeral and all for the guy, I imagine that it was all just mindgames to jack up her emotions. To be honest, I would not be surprised to later learn that the Frog's CIA handler, Kord, planted it to get under her skin to get her to be the trigger person to kill Benoit. That way the CIA could always have something to hold over the head of the head of NCIS, only to have Vance soon replace her. Perhaps they'll have an episode where they try to similarly set up Vance in which all this comes to light.

Whatever happened to that kid Seven from Married with Children? He went upstairs and never came down again.

Hey Arnold. He found a map that would lead him to his parents. Sure, this was meant to be the plot in another Hey Arnold movie, but still.

My Name Is Earl was canceled before we found out if Earl or Crabman was Earl Jr.'s biological father.

Reboot... Megatron takes over Mainframe and then... nothing. its over. we never get closure. Actually... After the conclusion of the web creature story arc which saw Megabyte blast Bob into the web and essentially assume control of Mainframe, Enzo took the position of guardian of the system. They encased Megabyte, Hexadecimal and his minions in a firewall, where they remained until Enzo, Andria and Frisket went into a game they couldn't win. In order to avoid being nullified, they changed their icons into game sprite icons and traveled with the game cubes from system to system. While in the game cubes, they aged tremendously fast, and the "newly" adult characters eventually met with the pirates featured in earlier seasons. The pirates, and a Surfer, ended up going into the Web and searching for Bob. In a battle with web creatures, Andria had most of her life energy sucked out of her, and was near deletion until the leader of the web creatures restored her. The name of that leader... Bob. Upon merging with the damaged Glitch, Bob, Matrix (as Enzo now preferred to be called) and all returned to Mainframe, to find it in a badly damaged state. They dealt with returning Game Sprites which were locked in the memory of the system until Hex took Bob away to her lair (the firewall had been destroyed by Hex in a raging fit) and Matrix went to the Principal Office to fight Megabyte in a final showdown. With Bob returned to Mainframe, the system was back on the net and he had used Phong's head to extract the codes to travel. However, before Megabyte made his daring escape, Mouse turned the portal into one to the Web, which sucked Megabyte in. However, the system was irreparably damaged. Eventually, it crashed, which prompted a system restore. Everything returned the way it was, with the Tor (Megabyte's lair) being destroyed. Hex became a sprite herself. There were then two movies, which saw the group battle against a supervirus, Daemon, and the return of Megabyte from the web as a Trojan. The second movie ended just before Megabyte began "The hunt" in Mainframe. THAT is the true unresolved storyline.

My Name Is Earl was canceled before we found out if Earl or Crabman was Earl Jr.'s biological father. This. Also, Tia Carrere was supposed to join the A-Team leading into the fifth season as the daughter of General Fullbright. Unfortunately, it never happened as she was under contract with General Hospital. Then again, the whole fifth season of The A-Team was disappointing in its premise. ...And I like Robert Vaughn.

I heard that they explained on the X-Files Blu-Ray that Doggett and Reyes were stationed overseas at the time, but everything about that movie was so disappointing and ill-thought out that I just can't care.
I was going to post something more about The X-Files, but, now that I think about it, they did resolve everything. The problem was that they had five seasons worth of storyline stretched out and convoluted into nine, and then taken to the point where it pretty much couldn't have a happy ending.

The movie did suck, I agree, abd Dogget and Reyes were never as good as Moulder and Scully. But why couldn't they have just said this in the movie? Mulder could have said "Why don't you give this one to Dogget?" and someone could have said "Because he and Reyes are currently stationed overseas." Bam, you have a line that will be a throwaway to most of the people watching, but a nod to people like myself who actually stuck through seasons 8 and 9. Problem solved, and it would have taken 5 seconds to the movie.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - That episode with the eggs, and that ending where its revealed more eggs were laid in a nest under the high school: Soon to hatch, oh no! Or not. I checked the thread to see if it was mentioned. Surprised to see it made it in the first post. Must be a record. I've never understood why people knit-pick this. Does anyone honestly give a rat's ass what happened? Or are they just looking for something to complain about? Obviously someone did care about this storyline, as they started their thread with it. Please leave the attitude out of this thread, thanks.

I remember an interview ( or maybe the True Hollywood story on MWC) that the producers knew audiences hate the character and opted to drop him. They thought itd be funnier if they DIDNT say what happened to him

Be back in this thread with a whole mess of 'em as soon as LOST ends. ;D There are already plenty which probably won't get resolved, such as Libby, the Hurley bird, etc. etc. The producers revealed the bare basics of what happened to Libby in case she doesn't return(they said she didn't want to come back) {Spoiler}Basically, she went crazy after her husband died, and went to Santa Rosa. Then she left and gave Desmond her boat. Reboot... Megatron takes over Mainframe and then... nothing. its over. we never get closure. Actually... After the conclusion of the web creature story arc which saw Megabyte blast Bob into the web and essentially assume control of Mainframe, Enzo took the position of guardian of the system.

Oz - {Spoiler}Luke Perry dies, haunts Timmy Kirk as a ghost for one episode, is never explained. {Spoiler}Someone put him back in the wall after the explosion. So he died in there the second time. If you want to believe the paranormal stuff then he came back from the grave as a ghost or w/e to get revenge. If you remember he tormented Holtz and used him to kill Kirk. There really is no explanation to be added. Some could say it was the guilt that drove them insane but considering the type of men they were that's to far fetched, even more so than a supernatural plot. Besides I think at least 1 other person saw the ghost as well if I recall. After his body was put to proper rest and the two men he help responsible died, the ghost moved on you could say.

Heres a big one from me. Transformers Animated, because of ROTF here's what we don't know What happened to Skywarp, Slipstream ,and Thundercracker? Whats going to happen with Blackarachnia and Waspinator? What will Soundwave do next? What are Swindle and Lockdown up to? Was Meltdown regenerating? What exactly kicked off the war between the Decepticon's and Autobots *It's been hinted by Wyatt that the Decepticon and Megatron were originally in the right in the beginning of the conflict* When will Ultra Magnus, Sentinel Prime, Red Alert, Wheeljack, and Perceptor catch their comeuppance for all the dirty stuff they did? Is Blurr possibly still alive? What happened to the Protoforms Yokitron was guarding when Lockdown stole them and killed him? Yeah thanks alot Hasbro and ROTF. This is exactly why I was coming to this thread. All hope to Primus that IDW comes out with another Animated comic series to tie up all the loose ends.
