Considering that people have mentioned Soap and the fact that Benson was on Soap, I’m surprise that no one has mentioned the fact that Benson also left off with an unresolved cliffhanger.
In the final episode, Benson was running for governor against Governor Gatling (who was running as an independent). The final show ends with the Governor and Benson watching the returns together and with the news anchor about to announce who won.

I like the theory that FinnAgain proposed here, in another thread:
Book is a former Operative, now retired or decommissioned.
Why do so many promising shows get cancelled?!
They never actually showed the results of the Two Guys and a Girl poll on the air. And I’m not really sad I never saw that question answered, but I miss Two Guys and a Girl, I liked it.
I’m almost positive this little tidbit will be revealed in a future comic.
Malcolm in the Middle never let us know the family’s last name.
Actually, that’s not quite true. Sharp-eyed viewers may have seen Malcolm wearing a nametag in the pilot eposide. Apparently, the name was also mentioned in a line that was nipped out of the pilot and never aired:
Malcolm was walking to school when a neighborhood kid came running up shouting, “Malcolm, Malcolm, Malcolm. I was talking to my parents last night - I was listening to them talk, and what’s your last name?” “Wilkerson, why?” Malcolm replied. “Oh. Who are the Pariahs?” said the other kid. The joke was eventually cut…
In the final episode, Malcolm is delivering the valedictorian address, and is introduced as “Malcolm <howl> <squeal>” - lost in a blast of PA system feedback.
American Gothic , did Caleb join with Lucas? Was Lucas Buck the devil, or a devil? That show really deserved a better wrap up.
Oh yeah! I’d forgotten about that one. I always figured he and the psychiatrist would be Match 100 and that’s when we find out. But alas!
Firefly comics? I wouldn’t mind those at all!
That show was canceled? I thought it was just on a very, very, very long hiatus. Son of a bitch.
Hell yes. One of the best end-of-season cliffhangers I’ve ever seen.
“They’re coming!”
“Who? Who’s coming?”
“Men with guns!”
I’d like to know how the Objects in the Lost Room got their, um, attributes. Damn that was one fine miniseries.
No love for the old show “Time Tunnel”?
Would have loved to see them (TPTB) wrap this and “Quantum Leap” up with one grand finale
Push, Nevada. I’m probably the only one who remembers that show. It was wierd and cool and the mystery of what was going on never got resolved.
Police Squad! (in color)
If the show had run, say, five years, would Frank run into 100 garbage cans?
After 7 seasons *and *a movie, the Baltimore **Homicide **detectives never did find out who killed Adena Watston.
Not Malcolm, Francis. On his military school uniform.
Yeah, ABC made it official last week when they announced their fall schedule.
I believe there were four additional episodes that went unaired. That would probably be the Ray Romano arc.
I thought “The Loop” was cancelled too, but it’s coming back too.
It was a monkey wearing a Trump-esque toupee. He “choose” the person to be fired by spinning a carnival wheel with each remaining contestants name on it. Whomever came up, was fired.
No, I’m not joking. Check Wiki…
Personally, I’m still bitter about Brimstone. 113 damned souls running loose, and Stone got, what, 13 of them? Would Stone ever reconnect with his widow? How was the devil planning to cheat him on his “second chance at life” (because you know he was)? What would he have done about Ash in the long run? Who was really pulling the strings, given that Stone got a visit (and a bit of advice) from an un-fallen angel at one point?
