* At least one episode of <s> CSI</s> ''every forensic investigation drama series ever'' has revolved around the plot of a suicide pact gone wrong.
* An episode of ''[[CSI New York]]'' has a group of terminally ill patients all giving themselves their ideal death. One of them doesn't go through with it, but I can't remember if they prosecute her for her part in the other deaths.
** There was also an episode where two teenage circus performers who were [[Star -Crossed Lovers]] make one. The boy, who was a contortionist, stuffed himself in a box just like in his act, but in a way that made him suffocate. The girl, who was a trapeze artist, was about to jump off a swinging bar and not let her dad catch her...but she changed her mind, realising that she had a lot more to live for. The whole case was investigated after the girl discovers her boyfriends body and buries the box at the beach.
* ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined]]''. In "Lay Down Your Burdens" when the Cylons have them pinned down, Kara and Anders agree to kill each other rather than be captured, and be sent to the Cylon breeding farms (which Kara had already experienced). Fortunately the Cylons withdraw instead.
* The ''[[Stargate Atlantis (TV)|Stargate Atlantis]]'' episode, "Childhood's End" has the team find a village of kids and young adults who have agreed to kill themselves upon hitting age 25 in a perceived effort to keep The Wraith from "harvesting" the community. The team learns this is needless as the Wraith were kept because of a powering dampening field which was running out of power soon and the sacrifices were thought necessary in the beginning to accommodate the field's limits and they eventually convince the villagers to stop this practice.
