Between December 2005 and April 2006, the series went on hiatus due to Jennifer Garner's real-life pregnancy, which was written into the season's storyline,[1][2] as well as news of the show's cancellation.[3][4] Season 5 consisted of 17 episodes, including four episodes aired as a pair of double-length presentations; two aired back-to-back upon its return from hiatus, and another two aired back-to-back for the series finale.
