So the backstory is that I was reading about cases in TV shows when a particular storyline could have easily ended a lot sooner, but ended up going for a bit longer. To provide an example, one that caught my eye was Twenty Four as while I don’t know a lot about the show, I sometimes hear how the writers had no idea on what to do with characters like Nina Bauer, so they basically put her in ridiculous situations by having her fight with wild animals.

However, if that last part is false, please let me know as I just figured that was an interesting example to start off with as for me personally, I enjoy reading about the history behind 24.
