Battle for Terra -- humans destroyed earth and the colonies on mars and
venus, so assembled a ramshackle generation ship, and set course for the
closest inhabitable planet (which turns out to be inhabited) -- the
leader of the military starts a genocidal campaign to clear it without
permission (that he controlled what info came back from recon probes let
him do this)
Hitchiker's Guide -- the Golafringian society set up program of a set of
three 'save the world' ships to avoid a cataclism. It was a trick to get
rid of a certain slice of population. In Douglas Adams' style, the home
society then flourished until it was wiped out due to a virus from a
dirty telephone (the cleaners being sent away).
Dark City -- last survivors of an alien race kidnapping humans for some
reason (perhaps someone can fill this in) :)
Doctor Who --> various times...
-- The Ark --> earth was toast, and so people were frozen in space to
repopulate it after it cooled.
-- N-space -- (Addrik's ship) --
