About: Bolivian Army Cliffhanger   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.webdatacommons.org associated with source dataset(s)

This is when a season ends with a Cliff Hanger that could have killed any number of the cast. Useful because executives can then negotiate contracts with the cliffhanger in mind; i.e., "Take a pay cut or we will kill you off". Compare Bolivian Army Ending and Our Hero Is Dead. If characters are revealed to have escaped from the fatal event after being shown or suggested to have been caught right in the middle of it (i.e. A bomb demolishing a building before anyone could get out), that's a Cliffhanger Copout. Ending Trope so beware Unmarked Spoilers. Examples of Bolivian Army Cliffhanger include:
