Line 95:
* ''[[CSI: NY]]'' had a first season episode with feuding circus families that led to a suicide pact.
* ''The'' blood feud of American history - [[Hatfields & McCoys]] - just got its own miniseries on the History Channel.
* An early episode of ''[[Star Trek Deep Space Nine]]'' featured a set of these whose feud had been going on for so long and caused so much collateral damage that their government banished them to a barely-habitable rock many light-years from their home, and for good measure they pumped the planet's atmosphere with nanites designed to give the belligerents [[Resurrective Immortality]] but kill them if they ever left the planet. This was several hundred years before Captain Sisko and some of his officers crash-landed there, and they were still at it despite the fact that ''nobody even remembered what started the whole thing in the first place''; it was still grinding on largely because that was what they'd always done. {{Spoiler|Sisko's desperate attempt to talk some sense into the leaders of both factions fall on deaf ears, and in the end he patches up the runabout and leaves the planet before Dr Bashir can do anything about the nanites because they deserve each other.}}
