10 TV Characters Who Just Disappeared
4. Amy Jessup - Fringe
The first episode of Fringe's second season started with a pretty shocking twist. Main character Olivia Dunham travelled back from an alternate dimension, only to be flung through the windshield of her car and knocked into a coma.
Amy Jessup, played by Meghan Markle, was then introduced and was seemingly her replacement. Jessup was a junior agent at the FBI who began investigating the Fringe division. Her investigation led to her coming in contact with Peter Bishop and they teamed up to stop a shapeshifter from killing Olivia. The episode ended with Amy looking through the Fringe team's old case files and noting down similarities between them and verses from the Bible, clearly hinting at some kind of big storyline to come.
Only then it didn't. Olivia woke up, went back to being the main character and neither Amy Jessup nor the events of the show being linked to the Bible were ever mentioned again. No explanation was ever given as to why this entire plotline was abandoned.
What (Probably) Happened To Her: Much like that one friend who keeps clogging up your Facebook feed with links to articles about how [INSERT CELEBRITY HERE] is the Antichrist, the rest of the Fringe team probably just ignored Amy's messages and blocked her.
