* The album ''Year Zero'' by [[Nine Inch Nails]] is a [[Concept Album]] and associated ARG{{context|reason=Did Nine Inch Nails do a classical music album, or is this ARG something other than the classical-music magazine 'American Record Guide'?}} in which 2022 (15 years after the album's release) has been declared "Year Zero" by a corrupt, far-right U.S. government.

* ''[[Andromeda]]'' measures years in Commonwealth Years, which starts with the beginning of the Vedran Empire, making time in the series very non-specific. However, [[All There in the Manual|extended material]] gives the Commonwealth date for when Friedrich Nietzsche published "Thus Spake Zarathustra", a definite date in our time system, so assuming they use the same years as we do (years based on the cycle of Tarn Vedra rather than Earth, though the difference can't be too much), it creates a good guess of the timeline of the series.
* The [https://web.archive.org/web/20131023052513/http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Timeline_(RDM) Battlestar Wiki Timeline] measures time from the Cylon holocaust depicted in the 2004 ''[[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' miniseries. The in-universe calendar is only referred to once, in the season 3 episode "Hero", where readable text in a printed copy of Adama's dossier indicates that the 'present day' of that episode is the Colonial year 21356, {{spoiler|somewhere around the year 148000 B.C.}}
* The current year is never mentioned in any season of ''[[24]]'', but the amount of time between days (16 months between Day 1 and 2, three years between Day 2 and 3, etc) is always established and can be used to determine how many years it has been since Day 1. In addition, fans have used various clues to formulate the following timeline:
** Day 1: Tuesday, March 2, 2004

** However the real world events that surround the first season would make this timeline slightly incorrect. The first season is meant to take place around one to two years after Jack's mission in Belgrade. The mission took place when Slobodan Milosevic was still in power which would place the mission in either 1999 or 2000.
* Season 2 Finale of ''[[Lost]]'' established that Oceanic 815 crashed and started the whole thing on September 22, 2004, the same day that ''The Pilot, Part 1'' episode was first aired and, you know, started the whole thing. Since then, fans were able to give all events of Seasons 1-4 an exact date based on the clues within the series. However, a [[Time Skip]] followed and events on Seasons 5-6 can only be put down to the year they happen it, with no precise dating except in relation to each other.
