A show that's just unfortunate enough to get canceled before its writers' creative juices have dried up (or the network decided to can their show out of spite, content complaints, or low ratings) will sometimes get a televised epilogue to Wrap It Up. But some aren't that lucky. Sometimes the show's creator or the company that owns the character has to go elsewhere to continue the story. Sometimes that means "downgrading" to comics or novels. Sometimes they can wrangle straight-to-DVD movies or an episode of another related show or even more rarely they get a shot at the big screen. A recent trend has seen many upcoming summer blockbusters receive comics preceding their release that serve to introduce the film's characters or villains. Things can get more complicated if the author dies before finishing his work, because (obviously) he won't continue the story anywhere. A Posthumous Collaboration may attempt to fill the void, by calling some new author to finish the story. Contrast Post-Script Season, Un-Canceled. See also All There in the Manual. If it's intentional, then there's No Ending. If it's a made-for-TV movie or miniseries, see Wrap It Up. Contrast Expanded Universe, where a show that did get a resolution is continued in other media anyway. The Resolution Will Not Be Identified is what happens when a deliberately-written series finale is not identified as such in advertising or on screen. There is a strong relation between this trope and Sequel in Another Medium. Note that, with this trope, the resolution may not be televised, but it does exist in some medium. If the work is left without any resolution at all, it's Cut Short. |

A semi-example with Puella Magi Madoka Magica. While the Twelve Episode Anime finished as intended, the sequel was released as The Movie. Word of God explains it wasn't long enough to be a complete second season. (In fact, the sequel was released after a pair of Compilation Movies that retold the anime's story.) | |

The Dungeons & Dragons (1983) Saturday morning cartoon had its unproduced final episode script released to the internet; it was later performed as a "radio play" on the series DVD set. And no, it's not the script passed around on the Internet where they found out they were dead and the world of Dungeons & Dragons is the afterlife. | |

BloodRayne 2 ended showing all the signs of being the second part of a Two-Part Trilogy, the required cliffhanger being the gathering of antagonistic factions for The End of the World as We Know It. The story was continued by the comics published by Digital Webbing until those have been cancelled (leaving their Myth Arc unresolved). | |

Alien Nation ended its sole season on a cliffhanger which eventually saw two resolutions elsewhere, first with the novel Dark Horizon and then with a TV movie also called Dark Horizon. The book novelizes both the cliffhanger episode "Green Eyes" and the unproduced script for what would have been the season 2 opener. The TV movie, produced years later, retcons certain events from "Green Eyes" to provide a self-contained story with noticeably older characters. | |

Heroes season four (Volume Five) ended with a shocking turn and the promise of another volume titled Brave New World which would've focused on norms learning about the specials and how the world dealt with it. However, the show wasn't picked up for another season. A 13-episode follow-up miniseries, Heroes: Reborn, aired in 2015. | |

The first Legends novel, Splinter of the Mind's Eye, was intended to be a possible version of this if A New Hope wasn't successful enough for a proper sequel. Only featuring Luke and Leia, it was a story in which the two of them fought Darth Vader over a Force crystal. In hindsight, the attraction between the two is rather creepy; though a lightsaber duel in which Luke and Leia both fight Vader is somewhat interesting. | |

Metalocalypse concluded with "The Doomstar Requiem", a one hour special that was meant to conclude the fourth season and lead into the fifth and final one. But the creator, Brendon Small, got into a disagreement with Adult Swim over budget and ultimately broke ties with them leading the series to be cancelled. He did vow to get the rest of the story told and fulfilled it with his second Galaktikon album, Galaktikon II: Become The Storm. While it doesn't call the characters from the show by name, it does allude to who is who. note Long story short, the album covers the final fight between the band and Mr. Salacia aka the Half-Man who puts his final plan into action to take over the world. The voice from the ocean (implied to be a Goddess or the planet itself) finally make contact with the band to aid them. Murderface is nearly swayed to the Mr. Salacia's side, but ultimately stays with the band when they showcase they won't abandon him. They fight the Half-Man, win albeit not without a lot of destruction and set about rebuilding the world. Years later however, Small and Adult Swim patched things up and was able to get a finale movie greenlit (along with fellow Cut Short series The Venture Bros.), albeit because it was released directly to video it still counts (albeit technically the contract stipulates a home media released followed by a release on HBO Max and eventually televised). | |

Star Wars: The Clone Wars was canceled when Disney acquired the Star Wars franchise, in favour of a new Star Wars series known as Star Wars Rebels for Disney XD. At this point, Season 5 just ended and multiple episodes up to a seventh and possibly even an eighth season were in different stages of production. Much of that material was released in different forms: Thirteen episodes that were already finished would compose Season 6, which aired on Netflix and were released on DVD/Blu-Ray. Two story arcs of four episodes each ("Crystal Crisis" and "Bad Batch") were released on StarWars.com with incomplete animation, but finished voice-over and sound effects. Eight finished episode scripts were adapted into the Dark Disciple novel. Another four-episode arc was adapted into Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir comic mini-series. The series was Un-Canceled for a seventh season released in 2020, with the "Bad Batch" arc seeing completion and the show getting a real Series Finale. |

The final The Middleman graphic novel acted as a season finale for the canceled TV series, being set in the continuity of the show rather than the previous graphic novels. Just to make things complicated, the previous (pre-TV) run of comics ended on a massive cliffhanger, which has itself never been resolved. | |

Stargate SG-1 ended with no resolution to the current plot and only later got a direct to video release, The Ark of Truth, that wrapped up the current plot. It was not a case of being cancelled too soon, it was a case of writers not knowing when to stop. Ironically, the main plot that started the show off did not get wrapped up within its own show and also saw a single one shot direct to video affair, Continuum, that wrapped up the massive loose ends of the story. | |

Epithet Erased, a loose adaptation of the creator's Roll20 Tabletop RPG campaign Anime Campaign, had a single season that adapted only two of the source material's ten story arcs. Due to the steep cost of making an animated show and VRV's lack of interest in funding further seasons, the series would continue on as a series of novels and audiobooks instead, with the first of these being Epithet Erased: Prison of Plastic. | |

Following its cancellation by Disney, Gargoyles received a licensed comic continuation from Slave Labor Graphics with input from series creator Greg Weisman. The series was notable for ignoring the third season produced without his direction and diverging from the events of Season 2 instead. Licensing fees eventually led to this series being left unfinished as well, but Weisman was eventually able to continue it under comic book publisher Dynamite Entertainment over a decade later. | |

The final DLC pack of Final Fantasy XV, Dawn of the Future, was stated upon its reveal to be a new story arc that would lead to an alternate ending for the game. However, in November 2018, Square Enix infamously cancelled 3 out of 4 of the DLC episodes for this storyline, with only the first one, Episode Ardyn, releasing in March 2019. The rest of Dawn of the Future's planned story (which were Episode Aranea, Episode Lunafreya, and Episode Noctis) was eventually released as a novel written by Jun Eishima. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist (2003): The series was concluded by the movie Conqueror of Shamballa, which wraps up many of the plot threads left dangling by the series, though the reason for that was that mangaka Hiromu Arakawa felt it would be pointless to tell the same story twice in case another anime was greenlit to accurately adapt the manga, which 2009's Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood did, only fully adapting that part while using a few elements of the original anime. The same director did the same trick with Mobile Suit Gundam 00. | |

Legion of Super Heroes (2006) was canceled after two seasons when 4Kids took over its airing block in 2008. It even had a fairly archetypal Season Finale Sequel Hook of the "villain's hand claws its way up from the bottomless pit" variety. It was to have the story of the third season told in the (cumbersome-named) comic book tie-in Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century, which was itself canceled a few months after the show (the 20th and last issue was in November 2008). | |

The finale of Season 3 of Dragon Booster promised that the adventures of Artha and Moordryd (and everyone else) would continue in Dragon Booster: Academy, which would also presumably wrap up loose ends such as Moordryd's betrayal of his father and Armageddon. This season never happened however, so the producers gave a major DB fansite an overview of the Academy. It's more of a "this is how the Academy works", rather than "this is what happens to Artha and Moordryd at the Academy", though. | |

Dollhouse is getting an interesting version of this: although the series finale "Epitaph Two" resolved pretty much everything, a comic series is being put out called Dollhouse: Epitaphs which takes place before it, just as it becomes After the End, and it shows what happens to several characters that we never see again in the series (like Ivy). We already know how everything ends, but now we can see how it got there. | |

Star Trek: The Original Series has seen a number of follow-ups in other media showing what became of the crew after the series presented only three of the Enterprise's five-year mission. First there was Star Trek: The Animated Series which continued the mission on Saturday mornings. Then there was Star Trek: The Motion Picture which gave some ideas of what the crew had been up to since the mission wrapped up, including Kirk's promotion to admiral, McCoy's retirement and Spock's pursuit of Vulcan Kolinahr, the abandonment of all emotion. Then, there was Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, which was initially expected to be the Grand Finale for Star Trek. Then came a trilogy of Star Trek novels collectively titled The Lost Years to fill the gap between the show's cancellation and the first movie. Finally there are IDW Comics' series Year Four and Year Five with their own takes on what happened during the mission's final two years, with the first issue of Year Four picking up immediately after the last televised episode. | |

While Stargate was developed into a television show, it took a lot of liberties with the film's canon, and went in an entirely different direction. Author Bill McCay took Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich's notes, and wrote five novels that are very different from Stargate SG-1, but follow the original plan for the film franchise. | |

Doctor Who: In 1987, the Sixth Doctor never received a proper sendoff story in the TV series because Colin Baker was fired from the role. Almost 30 years later, he finally got one in the form of an expansive audio play. The Doctor Who New Adventures series of books directly followed on from Doctor Who's cancellation in 1989, continuing the adventures of the Seventh Doctor (the last to be seen on TV until the TV movie in 1996) and his companion Ace. (They also introduced several new companions, one of whom received her own continuing Spin-Off series.) It subsequently gained a sister series of "Missing Adventures" revisiting earlier Doctors and companions. The BBC would eventually pick up the series after the TV Movie, publishing the adventures of the 8th Doctor and his companions. The Eighth Doctor's regeneration was finally shown in 2013, in a webcast. |

Played straight and subverted with the 1999 adaptation of Hunter × Hunter. The series originally overtook the source material before the York Shin Arc was even finished, but resolved the story with an OVA and moved on to the Greed Island arc before overtaking the manga again, which finally resulted in the original anime being Cut Short. Fortunately it was rebooted in 2011 by Mad House. However, due to the author's frequent breaks, the 2nd anime ended with Gon finally finding his father and continuing on with his adventures. | |

RPG World was orphaned by creator Ian Jones-Quartey during its final story arc. Over a decade later, Ian found himself with his own animated series, OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, and used the episode "A Hero's Fate" as a Fully Absorbed Finale to complete the story. His blog post discussing the episode has him admit that he only wanted to reuse the character of Hero as an in-joke, until some of the writers pushed for this trope. | |

Firefly: Although it was originally intended to be the start of a movie franchise, Serenity did a good job of wrapping up one of the larger plot threads from the TV show — at least, as good a job as one can do when one has to introduce, elaborate, and wrap up a plot element that was originally supposed to take several seasons. Darkhorse has also been sporadically publishing comics taking place after Serenity, with the 6-issue mini-series "Leaves On The Wind" being the most notable example. | |

Despite its huge popularity, the anime adaptations of Captain Tsubasa rarely cover the arcs beyond the middle school nationals. The original 1987 anime adapts the elementary and middle school nationals, then follows with a series of OVAs titled Shin Captain Tsubasa that covers the Junior Youth tournament. Captain Tsubasa J starts with a retelling of the first arc, before skipping to show the characters during their time overseas, ending with the Asian preliminaries before the World Youth. Road to 2002 adapts part of the characters' story when they finally enter the professional stage, but again, it ends when Japan is about to start its final match against Brazil in the World Youth (and skipping huge chunks of other arcs in the process). Lastly, the 2018-2019 is a remake of the original series, covering only the elementary and middle schools arcs, and while a new season was announced for 2023 to cover the Junior Youth tournament, the majority of the following arcs still remain unadapted. Only time will tell if this will remain the case. In a different vein, in 2021 series creator Yoichi Takahashi announced that he may retire due to his age after finishing the Rising Sun arc of the manga, covering the Madrid Olympics. As a result, the following arc, titled Next Dream and covering the various competitions in professional Leagues on the road the UEFA Champions League and presumably the World Cup, will continue to be told in the videogame Captain Tsubasa: Dream Team. | |

The final four episodes of Kokoro Connect were released as OVAs. There are two possible reasons for this.

Martian Successor Nadesico's story was meant to be concluded in a sequence of novels and a trilogy of movies. However, due to unknown disagreements among the people involved in the production, the audience was still Left Hanging. There were a few supplementary materials (two video games and the Gekiganger 3 OVA) that did at least wrap up the main story of the show. However, few outside of Japan have ever seen the video games — most annoyingly, the second one, which was supposed to conclude the series once and for all. | |

The anime adaptation of Rurouni Kenshin was actually canceled due to how low the quality of the Filler arcs had became. Shougo was good, Daigoro was all right, Black Knights was bland, and Feng Shui was the reason the show was canceled, what with the hard-to-follow plot, boring characters, almost no action, and random events. Because of this, the last arc of the manga was adapted as an OVA...which didn't even adapt that right either, instead going in its own direction from the manga. To this day the "Revenge" arc had never been animated as intended until it was adapted as a live-action movie in 2021. | |

The Divergent series of films is an infamous aversion. After producers thought they could follow in the footsteps of Harry Potter and The Hunger Games by adapting the last book into two movies, The Divergent Series: Allegiant performed so poorly that the producers soon scrapped their plans for a theatrical conclusion and instead began looking for ways to wrap up the story on television. After the cast (most notably Shailene Woodley) emphasized their unwillingness to work on a television project, those plans were soon scrapped as well, leaving the series ultimately unresolved (unless one goes back to read the books). | |

Kamen Rider Decade is a rare deliberate example of this trope, with the Grand Finale being a movie so that Toei could make way for Kamen Rider Double. This actually caused Toei some problems, since PTA groups complained that Decade's final episode was nothing but a 30-minute advertisement for The Movie, forcing them to completely redo the movie and resulting in it bearing absolutely no resemblance to the trailer at the end of the series. | |

(They also introduced several new companions, one of whom received her own continuing Spin-Off series.) It subsequently gained a sister series of "Missing Adventures" revisiting earlier Doctors and companions. The BBC would eventually pick up the series after the TV Movie, publishing the adventures of the 8th Doctor and his companions. | |
