Aborted Arc | |
| The Big C / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: The Sean-Andrea romance. It looked like at the end of Season 3, Episode 3 that they realized they had feelings for each other. Since then, it hasn't been brought up. | |

A Date with Rosie Palms: Andrea walks in on Paul having one of these. Cathy also has one in the bathtub—as she's listening to Lee's voice guiding her through breathing exercises. | |

Dead Guy Junior | |
| The Big C / int_2fd7200b | comment |
Dead Guy Junior: Rebecca finds out she's having a girl, and decides to call her Cathy. Since the father's Cathy's brother Sean, she will have the exact name and surname as our leading character. | |

Birth-Death Juxtaposition | |
| The Big C / int_6b7e3069 | comment |
Birth/Death Juxtaposition: Rebecca finds out she's pregnant with Sean's baby at the end of season 1, and since every season of this show is an actual season (roughly three months) she will most probably give birth in season 4 or 5, which are most likely going to be the final seasons. Ultimately subverted when Rebecca suffers a late-term miscarriage. | |
