Random information on the term “Dangle”:
Dangler is a literary term meaning a plotline that is metaphorically left to “dangle” or “hang”. A dangler, or dangling plotline, is a plot device in fiction where a plotline is forgotten, phased out and eventually dropped, thus a resolution is never achieved. Although dangling plotlines can occur in all forms of media, they typically appear in comic books, movies and book sequels, where the original writer or creative team can be replaced.
Typically, a writer will pepper the main story with smaller back-stories. It then becomes evident to the reader that these smaller back-stories have the potential to build up into a bigger story and reach a conclusion of some sort.
Editorial mandate can also force a writer to drop a building plotline due to fan backlash or an editor’s lack of interest to pursue such a plot.
In television, when a creative team fears that their show may not be picked up for another season, they will end the season finale with a cliffhanger in order to conjure a fan outcry and interest to continue the series. When the series is not picked up for another season, the cliffhanger creates a dangling plotline. Usually the original writer, fan of the series, or the company who produced the series, will look to another form of media to continue the story. Twin Peaks was able to resolve some dangling plotlines due to the release of the theatrical film. Buffy the Vampire Slayer got its own comic book series appropriately named Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, which was written by series creator Joss Whedon. In an extremely rare occasion, Futurama was continued six years later through direct-to-DVD films, which eventually led to the resurrection of the series in its original television format.
