* ''Series/{{Dallas}}'' shot several resolutions to the "Who shot J.R.?" cliffhanger. (Including one where J.R. shot himself.)
** The film crew for the "Bobby in the Shower" reveal thought that Patrick Duffy was making a soap commercial.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' did the exact same thing for "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsWhoShotMrBurns Who Shot Mr. Burns?]]", even though only a few of them could have been guilty - there was a gunshot, and Principal Skinner's gun had a silencer; Moe had a shotgun, which would've killed Burns, and Apu is shown using an automatic weapon that still leaves just one wound. They also shot a full alternate summation where Smithers goes through his whole MotiveRant, and it's explained how all the clues could have added up to Smithers being the culprit. [[spoiler: It was Maggie, by the way.]]
** "[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Of course for that ending to work you would have to ignore all the Simpson DNA evidence]], and that would be downright nutty!"
** They mentioned on the {{DVD Commentary}} for part 2 that they intentionally tried to leak the Smithers ending to the media, but they couldn't find a news source that was dishonest enough.
* The fourth season of ''{{Lost}}'' shot multiple reveals of who was in the coffin at the end of the final episode. [[spoiler: Sawyer and Desmond]] were the other two filmed to be in the coffin, but obviously weren't in it when the episode aired. In the DVDBonusMaterial for that season the writers said that they sweated a bit when that episode aired for fear the editor had spliced the wrong FoilerFootage onto the end of the episode because it would have been a bear to write their way out of.
* The first season of ''Series/{{Survivor}}'' shot multiple combinations of contestants at Tribal Council, creating a phony boot order.
* Every single one of the contestants in ''Series/TheApprentice'' is filmed doing a "walk of shame" out to the cab in case they're fired. This includes the eventual winner, of course. In at least one case, this created a continuity error when the contestant magically managed to change clothes going down the elevator.
* For the ending of ''Film/{{X-Men}}: The Last Stand'', they filmed the "Bobby discovers Rogue" scene both ways. That is, one where she took the "mutant cure" and one where she didn't. I think the commentary said that a poll was taken on set about whether she should take the cure or not.
* During the production of ''{{The X-Files}}: I Want To Believe'', several fake screenshots of the movie were released (including a picture of a werewolf) to throw people off. When the actual movie was released... well, let's just say there were more than a few people wishing Chris Carter had made the fake movie instead.
** Heck, for the first movie, there were multiple ''scripts'' written to prevent the real version from being leaked.
* David Prowse (the actor in the Vader suit) did not say, "I am your father," while ''[[StarWars The Empire Strikes Back]]'' was being filmed. He actually said, "Obi-Wan killed your father." James Earl Jones said the real line for dubbing, and Mark Hamill was told the real line just before filming as a form of EnforcedMethodActing.
** Supposedly another reason for this was that Prowse had a habit of letting spoilers slip, so Lucas decided to avoid it by not telling him what the real line was since it would be dubbed over later anyways.
** What's interesting is that both lines make a certain degree of sense [[spoiler: as it was Obi-Wan who 'killed' Anakin by defeating him in battle and letting him burn to death in the lava fields. It also works in terms of the emotional aspect, Obi-Wan not doing enough to curb Anakin's fall to the Dark Side. But neither of these aspects would have made sense at the time of filming as the third film wasn't made yet...]]
** Prowse himself was quite upset after the film's premiere, telling Lucas his body language would have been completely different if he'd known the real line.
* In ''Series/DoctorWho'', the first new-series finale "Bad Wolf"/"The Parting of the Ways" was filmed with an alternate ending where Rose died, which was to be sent to critics instead of the real ending, but RussellTDavies thought it was too inferior to the real ending to use.
* Four endings were shot for the final episode of ''SexAndTheCity''.

* ''PsychoIVTheBeginning'' reportedly had 4 endings to fool... someone. Seems due to an otherwise absent image on the Psycho sequels 3-pack one involved Norman burning up.
* Almost none of the footage in trailers for ''[[ParanormalActivity Paranormal Activity 3]]'' was featured in the movie itself.

* This is a common tactic employed by {{Soap Opera}}s to avoid major twists & deaths leaking out - Be it by shooting multiple funerals, having cast members continue to show up at the set after shooting their death in order to keep the death a secret, or simply by releasing false synopsis of the episodes to the public.

* The end of the first season of ''Series/TwentyFour'' had two final scenes, one with Teri escaping torment, and one with a ReallyDeadMontage.
* Subverted by the makers of ''Series/{{Life On Mars|2006}}'', who claimed to have filmed an alternative ending but were lying.
* The producers of ''Series/TheAmazingRace'' have been known to ask already-eliminated teams to perform "decoy runs", which may be "leaked" in case a spoiler is leaked, so as to confuse the fake and real spoilers. This is most often done with late-game portions that take place within the U.S. in case people see the teams running around during filming and later recognize them on TV.
