** To be clear, that was really only invoked in "The Mazarin Stone", as Jeremy Brett was (to put it bluntly) dying. In other episodes, Watson does have more of a role, and even some of Holmes' lines (such as the solitary cyclist) - this was not done for Brett's health, but to even the relationship and make it clear he wasn't the bumbling idiot that popular opinion holds so dear.
* The first five episodes of ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'''s ninth season lacked Colonel Carter because Amanda Tapping was nine months pregnant at the time of filming. As a result, all of the "sciency" dialogue was given to a recurring, relatively unimportant, base scientist.
** In the pilot episode of ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'', there was going to be a scientist by the name of Dr. Ingram, whose actor backed out late in the game. Reaching back into [[SG -1]] Recurring Character Land, they found Rodney McKay, called up David Hewlett, and gave him all of Ingram's lines.
* Connie Nielsen as Detective Dani Beck replaced Olivia Benson for eight episodes on ''[[Law and Order Special Victims Unit]]'' while her actress Mariska Hargitay was on maternity leave.
* With Jesse L. Martin committed to the filming of ''[[Rent]]'' in 2005, his character Ed Green on ''[[Law and Order]]'' was shot late in the season and spent the remaining four episodes recovering in the hospital. Michael Imperioli took over as Fontana's temporary partner Nick Falco for the duration. Unlike most other out-of-nowhere Temporary Substitute, Falco made an additional appearance the next season in a non-substitute capacity.
