Storylines with twisty, turny plots are often intriguing, but not to the extent that the target audience is unable to understand them altogether. Some TV shows are just too confusing, intentionally or not. Although, complex plots aren't entirely a bad thing. In fact, some shows introduce a series of complex questions that are answered till the last episode, that’s what keeps the viewers on the edge of their seats. But unfortunately, some shows don't always meet the expected standards, leaving behind more questions than answers. Here we’ll list such shows whose plot forever remained a mystery to be solved.

Adding to the complexity, the show uses the same actors to portray characters across both time periods, such as Louis Hoffman, Karoline Eichorn, and Maja Schöne. Dark is currently streaming on Netflix.
