Television
- 2001: Andromeda? - Captain Dylan Hunt and the Nietzschian, Tyr Anasazi, play a variant of go.
- 2000 - 2001? TakeNGive saw a music video by the pop-rock band "Creed", which may have had 3 or 4 scenes featuring two people playing go -- but I wasn't paying attention until too late; can anyone confirm this sighting?
