Showerthought: I just wasted a whole weekend on a show that went nowhere

I saw a trailer for 'The Enigma Project' and binged all 8 episodes over two days, only for the finale to just stop with zero answers. I feel like I lost 10 hours I'll never get back. Has anyone else been burned by a show that just doesn't finish its own story?

Know exactly what you mean about The Enigma Project, that ending was a slap in the face. I get what @kevinw94 is saying about the journey, but a show still needs to feel like it's going somewhere, you know? A good journey has a map, even if you don't see the final spot. This was like walking in circles for eight hours and then the path just ends at a cliff.

Sometimes the journey is better than the destination.

Honestly used to agree with that, but shows like this changed my mind fast.

Feel like @kevinw94's right, sometimes the mystery is the whole point.
