* In one episode of ''[[Thirty30 Rock (TV)|Thirty Rock]]'', Liz Lemon meets Wesley Snipes (no, not ''that'' Wesley Snipes. Seriously, is that name not so much more logical for a British guy to have?) at the dentist's office while she was under novocaine, and puts him in her cell phone as "future husband". After a disastrous first date, they go on a second when they meet by complete coincidence at a store buying tickets for [[Hot Tub Time Machine (Film)|Hot Tub Time Machine]]. This date goes even ''worse''. When they meet a third time at a taxi cab, all Wesley can stammer is "you...witch!", before catching up with Liz and suggesting maybe they're "settling soulmates" and proceeds to try and convince her every time they meet that they should get married, despite increasing evidence that they are not just ill-suited but ''hate'' each other.
* This is how Carrie meets Mr. Big in [[Sex and The City]].
* There's an episode of ''[[Friends]]'' where Phoebe comments on having run into this guy everywhere she goes, including the laundromat, coffee shop, and adult bookstore. She eventually decides to give him a chance after she reads her tea leaves and interprets them to mean she's about to meet a guy. He ends up being a total jerk, who makes inappropriate comments about her breasts over dinner.
* Subverted in an episode of ''Mysterious Ways''. Peggy keeps running into an engaged man who asked for a sign that he was marrying the right woman right before he saved Peggy's life. He thinks it's fate; she disagrees. Eventually they figure out that the man's fiancee was also in all those places, but Peggy kept getting in the way. When Peggy wonders why she was even there, Miranda points out that maybe she needed to realize there might be another soul mate out there for her, too.
* ''[[NoahsNoah's Arc]]'': How Noah and Wade happen to run into each other in the bar (as well as other times).
