Can anyone name some mysteries in stories where the answer ended up delivering and was better than the mystery itself? - eviltoast

I’ve watched shows, movies, read comics or listened to podcasts where there is a lot of build up around a mystery, only for the end to be lackluster. In these the journey itself was more riveting than where we ended up. What are some instances where the answer lived up to the hype?

    This is not relevant to the story, but like, what the fuck is happening in this video? It looks like someone tried to artificially create a depth of field by rotoscoping Roseanne and adding a blur to everything behind her or… something. There’s definitely a matte around her that’s occasionally flickering and fucking up. It’s hard to say what exactly because it’s so compressed, but there’s also something else about that video as well (besides it’s subject matter) that’s just really weird.
