** The TARDIS doing steampunk:

*** The Eighth Doctor's ''[[SceneryPorn ridiculously sexy]]'' new steampunk TARDIS [[http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/gallery/tvmovie/images/1024/dw50.html interior]] from the 1996 [[Recap/DoctorWhoTVMTheTVMovie TV movie]].

** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E14TheNextDoctor "The Next Doctor"]] (set in 1851) has elements of this, including a [[HumongousMecha hundred-foot high]] steampunk Cyber-King.

* The short-lived 2013 ''Series/{{Dracula}}'' starring Johnathan Rhys Meyers played around with the concept. In this version, Dracula is a technical genius who is able to provide a renewable source of electricity which would replace oil as a source of power. The fallout from such a device is the driving force for the season along with Dracula's quest for revenge against the Order of the Dragon (that made him a vampire).
* ''Series/{{Firefly}}'', while not ''strictly'' steampunk, does contain a lot of steampunk themes (mixing 19th century aesthetics with sci-fi elements and storylines) as well as steampunk character types such as the Wrench Wench, and went a long way toward popularizing the genre.
* ''{{Series/Fringe}}'': The episode "Brown Betty" has steampunk and SchizoTech designs throughout the episode. Although the episode was more DieselPunk as a whole.
* ''Lantern City'' takes place in an entirely steampunk parallel world.
* ''Series/{{Legend}}'' had a genius inventor character based on Creator/NikoloTesla who created all manner of steampunk gear, but the world at large didn't have it.
* ''Series/NCISLosAngeles'': In one episode, Abby goes to a "steampunk bar". But the steampunks are really just {{goth}}s wearing brown, they all act rude [[TheQuincyPunk like punks are expected to act]] and their vocabulary is laced with words borrowed from ''Literature/HarryPotter''.
* The short-lived (six episodes) series '{{Series/QED}}'' showed an American inventor, played by Sam Waterston, coming to Edwardian Great Britain and having adventures there.
* ''Series/{{Revolution}}'': The Georgia Federation has reverted to this full-stop, converting buses and agricultural machinery to steam power in response to the loss of electricity. Miles notes that their standard of living is substantially higher than that of the Monroe Republic at least partly as a result ("[[Recap/RevolutionS1E14TheNightTheLightsWentOutInGeorgia The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia]]").
* ''Series/TheSecretAdventuresOfJulesVerne'' is a steampunk series on the Sci-Fi Channel set in the [[VictorianLondon Victorian era]].
* ''Series/StargateAtlantis'':
** In one episode, Col. Sheppard and Dr. [=McKay=] have been playing an {{RTS}} game they had found on the station, where they each built up and controlled neighboring countries. At least, they ''thought'' it was a game, until they finds a planet with countries built up exactly like they had specified. Dr. [=McKay=]'s country is fully steampunk, with leather and brass, goggles, steam power and dirigibles.
** While this is probably the only episode to invoke the trope intentionally, many other planets of the week in both ''Atlantis'' and ''Series/StargateSG1'' have cultures that are clearly at an 1890s level, from tech to fashion, though it bears little, if any, relevance to the plot. Many establishing shots of smoke-filled cities with skies full of airships, science labs full of brass tubing and smoked glass. The show's artists/costumers, at least, were clearly fans of the genre.
* ''Series/TinMan'', a re-interpretation of ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'', has a distinct steampunk feel to at least the architecture and machinery, with just a tiny bit of cyberpunk thrown in for higher tech purposes. Appropriate to the setting. See "Literature." The Oz books were ''loaded'' with steam-tech.
* ''Series/{{Torchwood}}'': Captain Jack, captured by Torchwood agents in the 19th century, is interrogated by means of a Patent ElectricTorture Device, with the inventors' faces on the lid.
* ''Series/{{Warehouse 13}}'' plays with this, especially in terms of aesthetics, although it's a bit closer to DieselPunk in terms of the artifacts being handled (like the Farnsworth). The field agents, however, use fairly standard modern tech aside from the aforementioned Farnsworths[[note]]untraceable wireless video phones with brass casing, black-and-white only though[[/note]] and [[StunGuns Tesla guns]]. Although when Helena is a field agent, she prefers her own steampunk equipment.
* ''Series/TheWildWildWest'' is one of the earliest examples of steampunk on television. Practically every other episode featured a mad scientist outfitted with Verne-style tech.

* ''{{Series/Fringe}}'': The episode "Brown Betty" has steampunk and SchizoTech designs throughout the episode. Although the episode was more DieselPunk as a whole.
* ''Series/LanternCity'' takes place in an entirely steampunk parallel world.
* ''Series/{{Legend}}'' had a genius inventor character who created all manner of steampunk gear, but the world at large didn't have it.
* ''Series/NCISLosAngeles'': In one episode, Abby goes to a "steampunk bar." But the steampunks are really just {{goth}}s wearing brown, they all act rude [[TheQuincyPunk like punks are expected to act]] and their vocabulary is laced with words borrowed from ''Literature/HarryPotter''.
* The short-lived (six episodes) series '{{Series/QED}}'' showed an american inventor, played by Sam Waterston, coming to Edwardian Great Britain and having adventures there.
* ''Series/{{Revolution}}'': The Georgia Federation has reverted to this full-stop, converting buses and agricultural machinery to steam power in response to the loss of electricity. Miles notes that their standard of living is substantially higher than that of the Monroe Republic at least partly as a result ("[[Recap/RevolutionS1E14TheNightTheLightsWentOutInGeorgia The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia]]").
* ''Series/TheSecretAdventuresOfJulesVerne'' is a steampunk series on the Sci-Fi Channel set in the [[VictorianLondon Victorian era]].
* ''Series/StargateAtlantis'':
** In one episode, Col. Sheppard and Dr. [=McKay=] have been playing an {{RTS}} game they had found on the station, where they each built up and controlled neighboring countries. At least, they ''thought'' it was a game, until they finds a planet with countries built up exactly like they had specified. Dr. [=McKay=]'s country is fully steampunk, with leather and brass, goggles, steam power and dirigibles.
** While this is probably the only episode to invoke the trope intentionally, many other planets of the week in both ''Atlantis'' and ''Series/StargateSG1'' have cultures that are clearly at an 1890s level, from tech to fashion, though it bears little, if any, relevance to the plot. Many establishing shots of smoke-filled cities with skies full of airships, science labs full of brass tubing and smoked glass. The show's artists/costumers, at least, were clearly fans of the genre.
* ''Series/TinMan'', a re-interpretation of ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'', has a distinct steampunk feel to at least the architecture and machinery, with just a tiny bit of cyberpunk thrown in for higher tech purposes. Appropriate to the setting. See "Literature." The Oz books were ''loaded'' with steam-tech.
* ''Series/{{Torchwood}}'': Captain Jack, captured by Torchwood agents in the 19th century, is interrogated by means of a Patent ElectricTorture Device, with the inventors' faces on the lid.
* ''Series/{{Warehouse 13}}'' plays with this, especially in terms of aesthetics, although it's a bit closer to DieselPunk in terms of the artifacts being handled (like the Farnsworth). The field agents, however, use fairly standard modern tech aside from the aforementioned Farnsworths[[note]]untraceable wireless video phones with brass casing, black-and-white only though[[/note]] and [[StunGuns Tesla guns]]. Although when Helena is a field agent, she prefers her own steampunk equipment.
* ''Series/TheWildWildWest'' is one of the earliest examples of steampunk on television. Practically every other episode featured a mad scientist outfitted with Verne-style tech.
* ''Series/TheAdventuresOfBriscoCountyJr'' blended weird sci-fi elements with the 1890s old west.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** The Christmas special episode "The Next Doctor" (set in 1851) had elements of this, including a [[HumongousMecha hundred-foot high]] steampunk Cyber-King.
*** "Deep Breath", set in Victorian England some time after "The Next Doctor", had steampunk clockwork cyborgs.
** "The Girl In The Fireplace" had clockwork robots in GorgeousPeriodDress. Beautiful and NightmareFuel in one package.
** The Eighth Doctor's ''[[SceneryPorn ridiculously sexy]]'' new steampunk TARDIS [[http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/gallery/tvmovie/images/1024/dw50.html interior]] from the 1996 TV movie.
** Also the design of Eleven's TARDIS has a few steam punk nods.
** The wooden Victorian-style TARDIS console room used in Season 14 of the original show looks pretty steampunk nowadays as well.
** The 2010 Christmas Special, "A Christmas Carol," had strong steampunk elements as well.
** "The Evil of the Daleks" had a definite steampunk feel. Or would have done, if the 1967 audience had known about steampunk.
