When it comes to season finales, we expect at least a half-dozen or more shows to end on a cliffhanger. Is a character dead? Will a couple get back together? What does a big change mean for the show going forward? The 2023-2024 season, though shortened for most shows (due to the 2023 strikes), was no different.

9-1-1 entered its finale with the life of its captain, Bobby Nash (Peter Krause), hanging by a thread, and the episode ended with the entire firehouse in deep sorrow. Fire Country left us wondering what the future held after the finale wedding. Found brought one character’s worst nightmare right to her home… not that she knew it yet. NCIS: Hawai’i left fans with a major cliffhanger that will never be resolved due to its cancellation.
Below, we take a look at those shows and more that have left us in suspense, either now or for good. After you watch our picks, let us know what cliffhangers you have in mind for the coming months.
Amid the joy of Bobby’s survival and decision to no longer leave the LAFD, the captain forgot one thing: he had quit. The finale ended with him returning to work, only to find the station’s previous captain, Gerrard (Brian Thompson), there, making life hell for the firefighters (including Aisha Hinds’ Hen and Kenneth Choi’s Chimney). As he himself put it, there were some concerns about a leadership deficit in the house, so he agreed to come back and set things right.
