Line 48:
* Major world-shaking villains got two-parters in both ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'' and ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]''.
* ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' season finales tend to have this format. Season 5 is the exception.
* ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' began with a two-part episode ([[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E1/E01 Mare in Thethe Moon|"Friendship]] [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E2/E02 Elements of Harmony|is Magic"]]) about the ponies becoming friends and saving the world from eternal darkness. The second season began with another two-parter ([[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 E1/E01 The Return of Harmony Part 1|"The Return]] [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 E2/E02 The Return of Harmony Part 2|of Harmony"]]) involving a new villain, Discord, and ended with a two-part [[Season Finale]] ([[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 /E25 A Canterlot Wedding Part 1|"A Canterlot]] [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2 /E26 A Canterlot Wedding Part 2|Wedding"]]).
* ''[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers]]' had a few of these over its run.
* ''[[Jem]]'' had "The Music Awards" and "The Jem Jam" in the first season, "The Talent Search" and "Hollywood Jem" in the second season, and "The Stingers Hit Town" in the third season,

=== [[Live Action TV]] ===
* ''[[Law and Order]]'' had a two-part episode titled "The Torrents of Greed" in its first season and a three-part episode in season 7 ("D-Girl", "Turnaround", and "Showtime"), but otherwise avoided this trope.
* Before the 2005 revival, ''[[Doctor Who]]'' didn't have ''episodes'', it had ''serials'', mostly four- and six-parters. After the revival, it's had several two- and three-parters, though so far, only ''The End of Time'' has used Part 1 and 2 naming.
* ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'', especially on season transitions: The first two parts of a three-parter at the end of one season and the last part at the start of the next.
* [[Married... with Children]] has several two-parters, as well as 2 three-parters.
