* ''[[Buck Rogers in Thethe 25th Century]]'' is a prime example. The free-wheeling, chick-stealing, All-American Rogers is at odds with a future where humor and disco dancing are long-lost memories, and the world is run by [[A Is]]. Of course, a massive [[World War III|nuclear war]] will do that to a planet....
* Somewhat similar: ''[[Doctor Who]]'' and his companions arrive on "The Ark in Space" where the future of humanity is cryogenically frozen. It's mentioned that emotionality is not encouraged in this future society, which doesn't stop the characters from emoting wildly merely because they're being absorbed by [[Body Horror|Wiirn]].
* ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' has an episode (''The Neutral Zone''), in which three late 20th century humans are revived in the middle of a showdown with the Romulans. Two of the three adapt fairly quickly to a future that is better than their past but the third was a wealthy financier who reacts badly to the loss of his money, prestige and power.
