* The most obvious of examples is ''[[Babylon 5 (TV)|Babylon 5]]'', which was planned in a five-year arc for exactly this reason.
* J. Michael Straczynski's followup ''[[Crusade (TV)|Crusade]]'' definitely had a five-year plan, with Gary Cole and friends searching the universe for the cure to a plague that was put in the atmosphere of the Earth but which wouldn't have adapted until five years were gone (when it would kill everyone on the planet). [[Too Good to Last|They didn't even get halfway through the first season]].
** [[Word of God]] says that the plague would have been cured in the second or third season and been replaced by a conspiracy arc.
* In the remake of ''[[Bionic Woman]]'', Jaime's body will reject the upgrades in five years, with lethal consequences.
