10 TV Mysteries That Have Yet to be Solved
With cable, satellite, and internet, binge watching TV shows has never been easier. But
with more TV shows comes more unanswered questions and plot holes. Keep in mind we are discussing
major plot points in these shows, so there will most definitely be spoilers. Here are
10 TV mysteries that have yet to be solved. Don’t forget that at any point during this

Stranger Things It’s hard to imagine that stranger things
could be coming to Stranger Things, but the show still has some explaining to do. First
of all, where is Eleven? We all saw her disintegrate after sacrificing herself to take out the
Demagorgan, but then later Sherriff Hopper leaves Eleven’s favorite food in a box in
the forest. We can’t help but wonder if he knows something we don’t. Is she hiding
out in the woods to avoid causing anymore trouble? Is she stuck in the Upside Down?
Or is she in some new place we’ve never heard of? Then of course we have Will puking
up a creepy, black slug and uncontrollably jumping between dimensions. What’s that
about? Here’s hoping we get some answers in season two.
Westworld While Maeve and company are trying to escape
in the finale, they stumble upon what seems to be the making of a completely separate
world. The door they pass through has an “SW” symbol, and inside are a bunch of people who
look like samurai or shogun. Maeve asks the question that’s on all of the viewers’
minds, “What is this place?” but keeping with the theme of the show, the only answer
we get is, “It’s complicated.” So, what is SW? Samurai World? Shogun World? Is this
a park that is currently open to the public, or is it under construction? It also begs
the question: are there more than just these two parks? We’re feeling a little LOST here,
J. J. Abrams, help us out.
Mr. Robot We know that Whiterose said something to Angela
that made her completely abandon her mission to bring down E-Corp, which enabled the Dark
Army to continue their plans. What we don’t know is why, and we’re not certain where
her loyalties lie. Has she joined the Dark Army? Or is she just holding onto the information
to use for later? But now that she’s all filled in, did she reveal anything to the
Dark Army? Do they know now that Elliot has a split personality? What will she tell him
when he waked up? We have some many questions, and can’t wait to find the answers in season
three.
Sherlock Aside from John Watson, Mrs. Hudson, and sometimes
Mycroft, Sherlock doesn’t really show any emotional attachment to anyone. Not even Molly
Hooper, who has always had a massive crush on him. However, there is one person who has
without fail captivated him for years: The Woman, Irene Adler. What we know of there
relationship is that Sherlock saved her from being executed, and that they shoot the occasional
text to each other. But what is their actual relationship status? Where is Irene? This
girl is the only person who could actually hold Sherlock’s interest, and yet their
relationship hasn’t really been explored since A Scandal in Belgravia. We want to see
more!
Game of Thrones Season 6 was loaded with answers to age-old
questions like, “Who are Jon Snow’s real parents?” and “Why does Hodor talk like
a Pokemon?” But that doesn’t mean we’re satisfied yet. There are still plenty of unexplained
mysteries that need to be solved. First of all, who died and made Cerci queen? Oh, right,
Tommen. But, does that really make her queen? If not, it doesn’t seem to matter anymore.
The road to the throne is paved with blood, and anyone who would have objected either
isn’t around or dead. Perhaps more important on a grander scale though is the mark on put
on Bran by the Night’s King. Is that mark enough to allow the white walkers passage
beyond the wall? If it is, and winter has finally come, we can kiss the rest of main
cast goodbye.
The Walking Dead The end of season 6 of the Walking Dead was
quite possibly the biggest cliffhanger of the series. They built up suspense for like
half of the episode, and then gave a giant middle finger to the viewers by not revealing
who died. We finally got our answer in season 7, which was devastating, but it was such
a long wait to find it out! But many fans are still waiting for their very first question
to be answered, which is: How? How did this all get started? Turns out, we may never know.
Robert Kirkman, the writer of the comic books, has said that he knows how the outbreak got
started, but doesn’t plan on sharing that information with anyone until the comics end,
and possibly not even then. This is one mystery that will stay unsolved for a long, long time.
The Flash Savitar is a mysterious baddie that not even
many comic book readers know about. After all, he only appeared in about a dozen Flash
comics out of thousands of issues. This gives the writers of the TV show a lot of room to
write and make this guy whoever they want. What we know of Savitar is that he considers
himself the god of speed, and he apparently knows enough about the Flash crew to give
them a prophecy of what’s to come. “One shall betray you, one shall fall, one will
suffer a fate worse than death.” So who belongs to which prophecy? A betrayal is straight
forward, but one shall fall? Fall from grace? Fall from a building? And what is a fate worse
than death? Maybe being stuck in the Speed Force? We can’t wait to see how it all plays
out, and if it can be altered with time travel.
The Simpsons Everyone knows that the Simpsons live in Springfield,
but no one knows where Springfield actually is. It was revealed in 2012 that the inspiration
for Springfield came from Springfield, Oregon, which is near the creator Matt Groening’s
hometown. So we know where the inspiration comes from, but where is this place in the
actual show? There have been a few episodes that hint at the location, but they tend to
contradict each other and typically don’t make sense. In fact, in the Simpsons movie,
Ned Flanders says that the four states that border Springfield are Ohio, Nevada, Maine,
and Kentucky, which are nowhere near each other. We might be able to deduce where the
town is located in the real world, but certainly never in the cartoon world.
The Big Bang Theory Leonard Hofstadter. Sheldon Cooper. Raj Koothrappali.
Howard Wolowitz. Penny. These are the names of the beloved characters we have known ever
since the pilot episode of The Big Bang Theory. As you can see, one of those names isn’t
quite finished. Penny does not have a last name. At least she didn’t until she and
Leonard got married. But her maiden name is still a mystery. Which of course means her
entire family is currently without a last name. Unfortunately this is another question
that will never be answered. If she was ever even given a last name, the writers said they
have no plans of telling us what it is.
The OA We don’t have enough time to cover all of
the lingering mysteries from the finale of the OA, so we’ll just focus on the big one.
Is it all just a story? That is the major debate plaguing the internet right now. If
her story was fake, than how did she gain her sight back after being blind most of her
life? But if she was telling the truth, why did she have those books hidden in her room?
But if it was fake, how did they stop the shooter at the school? But if it was real,
what happened to the other angels? If it was fake, where was she, and who was she talking
to in the final scene? We could go back and forth for a while, and that’s exactly what
the writers intended, so we’ll just have to beg and plead for a season two in order
to clear things up for good.
There are tons of TV shows out there so we’re certain we missed some of your favorites.
