* ''Series/{{Lewis}}'': Done with an actual band in episode "[[Recap/LewisS3E4 Counter Culture Blues]]." Esme Ford of the 60s rock band "Midnight Addiction", who faked her death 35 years ago, reveals to her old band mates that she is still alive. They pretty much immediately put the band back together, much to the delight of Detective Inspector Robbie Lewis, who was a big "Midnight Addiction" fan back in the day. Unfortunately some murders ruin everything.

** The PostHardcore band Music/{{Finch|Band}} had originally broken up in 2010, as a result of several false starts to a rumored third album. Two years later, the band members were contacted by their former manager to do some tenth anniversary shows to commemorate the release of the band's debut album, ''What It Is to Burn''. This eventually turned into a tour, and during this time the band started writing songs again. This resulted in the band's reunion, as well as the release of their long-awaited third album, fittingly entitled ''Back to Oblivion''.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Exile}}'' for the UsefulNotes/PCEngine / UsefulNotes/TurboDuo Super CD system, Sadler already has a Four Man Team. All you must do is talk to them and they'll join you shortly afterwards, popping in and out of the plot for the rest of the game. In the sequel, ''Exile: Wicked Phenomenon'', Sadler's friends are scattered across the Middle East. Rumi is believed to be dead, but turns up in Baghdad. Fakhyle and Kindhi arrive a short time later in a BigDamnHeroes moment (complete with anime cutscene) to save Sadler and Rumi from the first boss' trap and allowing a fair 1-on-1 fight. After the boss is dead, the gang from the first game is officially back together - and this time, they're all playable.

* Franchise/MarvelUniverse:
** The entire universe has undergone this since ''ComicBook/AvengersDisassembled''. ''ComicBook/CivilWar2006'' split ComicBook/TheAvengers into two separate teams led by ComicBook/CaptainAmerica & ComicBook/IronMan respectively, with most of the other superheroes picking a side. It took an [[ComicBook/SecretInvasion alien invasion]], [[ComicBook/DarkReign Norman Osborn becoming the world's supercop]], [[BackFromTheDead Captain America's resurrection]] and Iron Man [[ItMakesSenseInContext having his brain rebooted from a back-up that he made prior to Civil War]] to reunite the various heroes against a common foe.
** {{Subverted}} with the ComicBook/XMen, as they have generally stayed apart from the rest of the characters since ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'' ended with most mutants being depowered & as of this entry, are now at the point where the X-Men are being split in two & fighting each other.

* ''TabletopGame/BattleTech'': At the climax of the Jihad, a number of internal and external pressures caused the League to completely dissolve in 3079, becoming a hodgepodge collection of independent worlds and multi-planet minor states that [[WeAreStrugglingTogether would war amongst each other but band together temporarily to fight off bigger threats]]. This status quo remained for sixty years until in the late 3130s Jessica Marik was able to begin the long task of reassembling the League. Most of these former member states and worlds reunited in 3139 but Regulus continued to spar with the League until subdued in 3148, and as of June 3152 Andurien is still fiercely independent and shows no inclination to rejoin the League.
