* Used a number of times on ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
** The Cybermen in "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S5/E01 The Tomb of the Cybermen|The Tomb of the Cybermen]]"
** Daleks in both "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S10/E04 Planet of the Daleks|Planet of the Daleks]]" and "[[Doctor Who/Recap/NS/S2S28/E13 Doomsday|Doomsday]]". ("Doomsday" also has [[Sealed Evil in a Can]] in the form of the Cult of Skaro, an elite group of special Daleks who release the army, in an unusually literal application of this trope. The entirety of the army is sealed in a metal can the size of a single Dalek. It used TARDIS tech.)
** Kane's mercenaries in "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S24/E04 Dragonfire|Dragonfire]]"
* Played with an interesting twist in ''[[Power Rangers Ninja Storm]]''. In the finale, it turns out that, unbeknownst to either the audience or the Rangers, the heroes haven't been ''killing'' the [[Monster of the Week|monsters of the week]], they've been sealing them. And the [[Big Bad]] was keeping track of the exact number of monsters the can could hold, as when it went one over, it would let them all out at once.
