Sometimes, the Time Traveller never intends to go anywhere. They're just minding their own business when Alien Space Bats or some form of Applied Phlebotinum sweeps them into the past, leaving them without any hope whatsoever of ever getting back home.
Once the initial excitement has faded, and they have resigned themself to the situation, there's nothing for it but to do the best they can in their new world, or die trying. How much the unwilling traveler can achieve depends on how far back they are swept, and how well prepared they are.
If a time traveler lands in the recent past, they typically use their foreknowledge to try to gain a comfortable life. Interacting with their immediate ancestors is a great temptation and they can hope to live until their original time. The really unlucky travelers end up in the path of war or disaster — on the Titanic, during the last days of Pompeii, in medieval England with the Black Death raging — in which case, the plot will be about escaping the immediate peril.
At the other extreme, they are lucky enough to have in depth knowledge of the time period they're stuck in, extensive engineering skills, or both, making them the ideal people to bring progress to the past. After some initial teething troubles, the industrial revolution is soon in full flow, several centuries early, allowing the traveler half the comforts of home.
The middle ground of travelers, those who avoided immediate disaster but didn't have the foresight to learn the right things, have to accommodate themselves to the past. They may be able to improve their life in little ways, but for the most part they are stuck with the dismal realities of history.
This trope typically ignores the implications of language and biology. Individuals who find themselves transplanted in the Medieval period are able to communicate without difficulty with people whose language bears very little resemblance to their own (for example, middle English is not the same as modern English, and so forth). Furthermore, those same individuals never have to worry about the disease or poor hygiene practices that made living during those ancient periods extraordinarily hazardous, by modern standards. Likewise, they never have to worry about infectious diseases common in their own time spreading wildly among a population with no immunity, the way that smallpox and other plagues spread in the New World after Europeans showed up. (This is actually justified by modern vaccines — a modern human may have been vaccinated against many of said infectious diseases. Said time traveler then would be a superhuman among the population, completely immune to certain deadly diseases.)
Well, hardly ever. Aversions and subversions of those parts of the trope are increasingly popular.
The original victim, Hank Morgan of Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, failed to permanently industrialize Arthurian Britain and was sent back to the nineteenth century as mysteriously as he'd left it. Most of his successors, however, have had better luck.
A Sub-Trope of Fish out of Temporal Water. Compare Get Back to the Future, The Slow Path, Trapped in Another World, and Summon Everyman Hero.

In the horror novel Jago, one character gets blasted back in time by the Reality Warper villain's power, with no way of returning. It's a moot point, anyway; the energy release accompanying her arrival in the past attracts the attention of a paranoid villager who kills her while she's still trying to understand what just happened.

In Recursion, the titular time portals can only go backwards from their point of origin, although they form a two-way tunnel once established. This means that, if the Recursion you used to get to the past unexpectedly closes, you need to have a friend in the future open another one to you, or you'll be stuck then.

The Crash Bandicoot series uses this trope as a bridge between two sequels.
The true ending to Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped sees Doctor Cortex, N. Tropy, and Uka Uka banished to a seemingly prehistoric setting, the former two becoming infants in the process.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time shows them escaping the past after 22 years of attempts. Later it also inverts the trope by having the Quantum Masks banish Cortex to the end of the universe for all the trouble he's caused, trapping him in the future - not that he seems to mind.

As Star Trek: Enterprise featured time-travel heavily this happens more than once. Reptilians travel back in time to release a plague on mankind in the early 21st century, their method to get back gets destroyed resulting in them attempting to release the plague early to hamper humanity. At some point the Enterprise goes through a Negative Space Wedgie, sending the ship back 100 years; placed out of time Enterprise becomes a generational ship and aids the present day Enterprise before it can go back in time. Finally, and infamously, the opening of season four saw Time-traveling Alien Space Nazis; who were a group of aliens helping Nazi Germany win, provided the Nazi's helped them build a portal back to the future.

Pugad Baboy: Temporally inverted in the 2078 arc of the Filipino comic strip, whose main cast accidentally ride a train from the then-present of 1992 into 2078, thanks to a wormhole swallowing up their train car. The whole arc has them briefly adjusting to a very dense, overcrowded, and Cyberpunk-ish metropolitan Manila (and lamenting the lack of beer in the 2070s) before riding the next wormhole back into their time. (The arc never explains the fate of the presumed other passengers though.)

Stargirl Spring Break Special would use this trope to restore Green Arrow and the original Speedy, who'd been regulated to "present day characters" following Crisis on Infinite Earths, to the team's history: early on in their careers, a fight with the Clock King resulted in Ollie and Roy being sent into the past, where they helped form the team.

In Doraemon: Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey, Nobita and gang sneaks a group of stray cats and dogs back to 300 million years ago with the Evolution Light, before leaving (with Nobita promising his new pet dog, Ichi, that he will return the next day). But when the gang (with Doraemon included) tries going back a day later, their Time Machine hits a temporal warp and jettisons them to 299,999,000 years ago - a millenia off their designated timestamp - and they realize the cats and dogs they left behind have now formed a society of their own. And as luck would have it, the machine gets damaged beyond repair because of the warp, and the gang need to find a way back.

In Two for the Death of One, the Man of Steel gets dragged to the fourteenth century by his enemy Satanis. During a magic duel between Satanis and villainess Syrene, the Man of Steel gets split into two duplicates. Since their enemies only need one Superman to carry out their plans, one "twin" is hurled back to the present day. The remaining Superman remains trapped in the XIVth century until his duplicate self manages to go back to the past and merging back together with him.

The anime and manga Zipang sends the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force vessel Mirai, an advanced version of Kongo class destroyer (in turn a modified version of the American Arleigh Burke class destroyer), back to just after the Battle of Midway. Similar to The Final Countdown, where a Nimitz class aircraft carrier gets sent back to just before the attack on Pearl Harbor, but much better done.

Both Visionary and Omnitron-X in Sentinels of the Multiverse are incapable of returning to their futures(actually alternate timelines). Neither of them seem to have any problem with it, though, as their futures are pretty sucky (well, in Visionary's case, at least. It's a bit more vague with Omnitron-X).

This can happen in the Time Scout series. A Portal to the Past can become unstable and vanish, trapping people on the other side. Or you can go through a temporary unstable gate and get trapped. This happens once in the series, and a few times in back story.

In Dinoverse, the four eighth-graders sent back in time and put into the bodies of various megafauna aren't stuck; they know that if they reach a certain place and are there at a certain time there's a chance that they can make it back. But one of them, Janine Farehouse, would rather be stuck, so she abandons the group to try and live as a Quetzalcoatlus. A native Quetzalcoatlus hangs around her and she does fairly well for a few days, before the thought of never having anyone to talk to softens her resolve enough that one of the other kids can persuade her to help them find the place.

Green Lantern: In Green Lantern (1941), in a blatant homage to A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, Alan and Doiby were once transported to Arthurian England. They were there long enough that Alan's ring ran out of power, leaving the two of them apparently stranded. Thankfully, Alan's lantern was centuries old, and existed in that time period, so he was able to charge his ring and return to his own time.

The Axis of Time trilogy by John Birmingham. World War 2.1: Weapons of Choice, World War 2.2: Designated Targets, and World War 2.3: Final Impact. A multinational naval task force from 2021 is sent back to World War II, where it (literally) impacts with the American fleet steaming for Midway. The consequences are extremely far-reaching. The characters themselves claim that they're not in their past but in an alternate timeline. Their own timeline is fine and can't be affected by their actions. However, since the technology that sent them back was the very cutting edge in their own time and didn't survive the Transition, there's no way back for them.

In Amakusa 1637, seven teenagers from a Catholic school get trapped in the Japan of few before the sakoku ("isolationism") period. They learn that they're in the Amakusa area, right before the Shimabara Rebellion, and they decide to try averting the bloody massacre of Japanese Christians. When one of them returns to the future alone, she finds out that their mission has been succesful.

Zira and Cornelius are this in Escape from the Planet of the Apes. After their planet exploded in Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Cornelius, Zira, and Dr. Milo escape on the spaceship that George Taylor and his crew used in the beginning of the first Planet of the Apes movie. The ape trio used the ship to go backwards in time to the way the human crew came, landing them on the same time when Taylor left on Earth. Since the ape planet was destroyed, they are now stuck in the present Earth in the 70s.

Picard accepts this fate for the crew of the Enterprise in Star Trek: First Contact, when it appears that they may not be able to return to their own time; as he prepares to attempt to rescue Data from the clutches of the Borg Queen, he gives the order that if he doesn't return, they should pursue happiness in this era, "and stay out of history's way."

The last installment of the Sorcery! saga, The Crown of Kings, has this as a possible fate for players choosing to be a wizard. One of the Last Disc Magic spells you'll cast is the ZED, which turns out to be a time-traveling spell, but without consulting Jann the Minimite for the proper methods of control it can backfire and send you to any random location without your equipment - the worst of them being stranded in prehistoric times, where you encounter avian monsters which went extinct several millennia ago, or sent centuries to the future, in the ruins of a destroyed world. Theoretically speaking you can cast the same spell again, but considering it requires a hefty stamina cost (at 7 points; your maximum is 24) you probably wouldn't have enough to do it again.

At the end of Tomorrow's End, the sequel to The Girl from Tomorrow, villains Silverthorn and Draco are left stranded in the prehistoric past when their attempt to flee through the Time Gate from the year 2500 back to 1990 (which they intend to rule with their future technology) is sabotaged by Petey, who reprogrammed the coordinates on the Gate behind their backs, and they're left there by the heroes.

Doraemon stories:
Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur have Doraemon, Nobita and friends trapped in the Cretaceous era after having their time-machine malfunctioning. It was earlier on damaged during a chase against the Dinosaur Hunters, and with Nobita's friends, Gian, Suneo and Shizuka tagging along, the machine ends up overloading and crashes upon impact.
Doraemon: Nobita's Dorabian Nights have the gang traveling to ancient Arabia with the help of their robot tour guide, Mikujin, only for Mikujin to screw up and accidentally leave everyone stranded.
Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure in the South Seas have the gang touring the seas, only to unintentionlly enter a time warp sending them to the 16th Century during The Golden Age of Piracy, with plenty of Sea Monsters abound.
In Doraemon: Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey, Nobita and gang sneaks a group of stray cats and dogs back to 300 million years ago with the Evolution Light, before leaving (with Nobita promising his new pet dog, Ichi, that he will return the next day). But when the gang (with Doraemon included) tries going back a day later, their Time Machine hits a temporal warp and jettisons them to 299,999,000 years ago - a millenia off their designated timestamp - and they realize the cats and dogs they left behind have now formed a society of their own. And as luck would have it, the machine gets damaged beyond repair because of the warp, and the gang need to find a way back.
Near the end of Doraemon: Great Adventure in the Antarctic Kachi Kochi, this fate happens to Doraemon only - due to a freak storm as the gang tries fleeing from the rampaging eldritch monster Blizarga who is destroying an ancient civilization 100,000 years ago, Doraemon gets separated from everyone just as Nobita hits a switch on his Time Belt. Returning to the present, Nobita must find a spare battery for the belt so everyone can return to 100,000 years ago and retrieve Doraemon.

During Continuum, most of the characters are trapped in the present, which for them is seven decades in the past, as their time machine was dismantled upon arrival and they have no suitable power source for it. In the season finale, Matthew Kellog, one of the time-travellers who has become increasingly independent from both parties, attempts to hijack the now-operational time machine with the intention of going back to when the travellers all originally arrived in the past so that he can kill them all and basically Take Over the World using his new future knowledge. Fortunately, others manage to reprogram the machine to send Kellog further back in time to pre-Columbian America, where he will be unable to influence future events and will almost certainly get killed by the natives.

Stargirl Spring Break Special would use this trope to restore Green Arrow and the original Speedy, who'd been regulated to "present day characters" following Crisis on Infinite Earths, to the team's history: early on in their careers, a fight with the Clock King resulted in Ollie and Roy being sent into the past, where they helped form the team.

The Red Green Show: Discussed in an "Experts" segment where Red said time travel wouldn't make sense because he wouldn't want to travel through time. This trope was his reason for not wanting to travel back in time; his reasons for not travelling forward in time is because he couldn't even figure out the gadgets he had now, and didn't want to pit his wits against the future's gadgets.

The Flash (2014) features "Harrison Wells", aka Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash who is in this situation, though it's entirely his own fault. He got trapped in the past as a result of a failed attempt to go back in time and kill the Flash as a child. After failing, he decides to kill Barry's mother instead, but after doing so he discovers that he lost his connection to the Speed Force and is unable to get back to his own time. His actions throughout the series have ultimately been dedicated to creating the Flash (earlier than in the original timeline) and using his speed to travel back to the future.

Being stuck in the past is one of the many ways to earn a game over in The Journeyman Project. If you run out of energy, you can't jump back to the present and you're caught by security. If you encounter people in the past when you're supposed to stay out of sight, you're detained by security and it's presumed you lost you gear or energy, preventing you from returning to the present time.

Three years later, this all goes to hell when Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sayid time travel to 1977 and kids are getting shot, then kidnapped, vans are set on fire, physicists start shoot outs and hydrogen bombs and Daddy issues start coming into the picture.

Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect end up stuck on prehistoric Earth with the idiotic Golgafrinchans at the end of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1981). In the earlier radio series they were rescued when Arthur's towel become fossilized and picked up by the Infinite Improbability drive in the future. In the third book of the "trilogy", they are instead "rescued" by a sofa that was supposedly displaced in time. It brought them back to modern day Earth, a few days before its destruction.

In Back to the Future Part III, Doc Brown resigns himself to the fate of living in The Wild West — and he's actually quite happy about it. He even goes as far as to give Marty instructions to not pick him up. Being an inventor, though, he does manage to invent some technology of the future with the era's limited materials. He doesn't share his inventions with anyone else, as he's mindful to not risk changing history. At the end of the film, he does create another time machine out of a steam train. However, it's uncertain whether he chooses to live out the rest of his life in the past — or move back to the future, or really just travel to any era as he pleases. The ride and animated series, though, both have Doc ultimately moving back to the future.

Island in the Sea of Time by S. M. Stirling. The island of Nantucket is whisked into 1250 BC, and must contend with Bronze Age cultures and their own crop of power-hungry renegades. This one does contend with language difficulties, uptime diseases, and so forth; the Nantucketers manage to wipe out huge numbers of Native Americans before they even realize what's going on, because the first party sent to the mainland contains someone with a sniffle. Their language difficulties are moderately eased by the fact that the languages of Europe are, at that point, much closer to still being "Proto-Indo-European"...

In Dark (2017), as Time Travel is still a pretty new concept and hence unexplored, some of the characters who go to the past get stuck there due to various reasons.
Mikkel, who disappears from 2019, is stranded in 1986, and is unable to ever get back. He is adopted by Ines Kahnwald, is given the identity of 'Michael Kahnwald', and eventually marries Hannah and fathers Jonas.
As of the end of Season 1, Mikkel's father Ulrich is trapped in 1953 - though in his case, it is not because he can't find his way back to 2019, but rather because he's been incarcerated as a murder suspect by the police of the era. In Season 2 we learn that Ulrich is still incarcerated in a psychiatric facility in 1987.

What If?: One issue features an alternate ending to the Doomquest story arc mentioned above, where Doom betrays Tony Stark and leaves him stranded in Arthurian times with only a damaged suit of armor. Stark instead uses what tools already exist to make better tools to partially fix his armor, and ends up becoming one of the knights of the round table. After being mortally wounded by Mordred, Arthur passes Camelot to Stark, who ushers in a new golden age of peace, and jumpstarts the industrial revolution 1000 years ahead of schedule. This also foils Morgan Le Fay's plots for good, and Camelot never falls.

My Choices: Twisted Tales Through Time: Twilight Sparkle is pulled to about five years before Luna's fall and transformation into Nightmare Moon by a time-viewing spell gone wrong. At first she wants to leave the timeline unaltered, and takes on the alias of Blue Star so that even if she shows up in the history books it won't be as herself. Although the pseudonym bit works, she still ends up Giving Radio to the Romans and changing the course of history.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy: Arthur and Ford find themselves trapped on prehistoric earth, the only skills between them the ability to live in a crapsack universe. They're unable to communicate with the aborigines, an odd aversion since their babel fish allow them to communicate with all the rest of the known universe, including the interplanetary immigrants they are marooned with.

The Ambition of Oda Nobuna: Ordinary High-School Student Sagura Yoshiharu finds sent back to the Sengoku era for no reason. The good news is... he's a fan of Historical Simulation games based on that era, and didn't even have much of a shock over transported back at time at all.

Life On Mars: Sam Tyler, a policeman from 2006, mysteriously wakes up in 1973 and does indeed have problems communicating with his police colleagues. Even though they speak the same language, they don't speak the same language. Also, obviously, the spin-off/sequel Ashes to Ashes (2008), Alex Drake from 2008, finds herself trapped in 1981 with a perm and a wardrobe full of jumpsuits.

Legion of Super-Heroes: Ultra Boy was once trapped in the distant past. It took him a while to realize, since he started out stranded on an alien world as well. There have also been several periods where a subgroup of Legionnaires was trapped in their past/our present for a span of issues; in the Nineties, the 20th and 30th century groups each 'owned' one of the two Legion titles being published then.

The plot of Final Fantasy X revolves around Tidus being plucked out of the futuristic city of Zanarkand (while said city is destroyed) and dropped in the world of Spira. He finds that Zanarkand was destroyed 1000 years ago and has no way of getting back, so he helps a summoner on her quest to destroy the local ancient city-destroying monster whale. Fully subverted when we find out Tidus, along with his version of Zanarkand, is a dream of the Fayth, the last survivors of the actual Zanarkand.

Doctor Who:
"Silver Nemesis" subverts this by having a character from Restoration Era Britain transported to contemporary times with the secondary villain and finds himself stranded in the future and bemoaning his fate. Fortunately, the Doctor and Ace immediately arrive and playfully tell him they can help, considering they can easily give him a ride home.
In "The Girl in the Fireplace", it almost happens to the Doctor. Luckily for him, the portal in Reinette's fireplace was still online.
"Blink": The Weeping Angels do this to people; they "kill" their targets by sending them however far back in the past will result in them dying of old age around the time they catch back up to the present. As a result, the Doctor and Martha spend several months in 1969, while Kathy Nightingale and Billy Shipton are left permanently in the past. In Billy's case, the Doctor explicitly tells him that he would normally offer him a lift home, but since Billy taking The Slow Path back to 2007 is necessary for the resolution of the Stable Time Loop, he can't.
"The Angels Take Manhattan": The final fate of Amy Pond and Rory Williams, as an Angel warps Rory back in time, and Amy chooses to follow suit. She manages to tell the Doctor that despite everything, they had each other and lived comfortably to old age.
"Rosa": The antagonist, Krasko, from the 79th century, first gets his vortex manipulator destroyed by the Doctor while in 1955. Then Ryan uses the temporal displacement weapon the Doctor confiscated from Krasko to send him even further into the past, with no known way back.
"Spyfall, Part 2" has the Master trying to find the Doctor in 1943 (where she is accidentally stranded) by disguising himself as a Nazi officer, however he is exposed and captured, enabling the Doctor's return to the present. In the present-day sequence of the episode, set in 2020, the Master then turns up, remarking that he has just had the worst 77 years of his life; being a Time Lord he was able to live through these years and has barely aged.

Journey into Space: In Journey to the Moon / Operation Luna, the proximity of the Luna to the Time Travellers' fleet near The Moon causes it to be sent at least 13,000 years back in time. Jet believes that they have travelled about 50,000 years into the past. The announcer gives the date as 20,000 years prior to 1965 in the introductions to the twelfth and thirteenth episodes of Operation Luna. This is confirmed in-universe by Jet in the latter.

Marvel 1602: The mini-series has a time-displaced Captain America sent back to Elizabethan times. When asked to return to the future, he insists on staying to try and build a better America from the beginning — which he does in small ways, such as helping a group of colonists survive a winter that should have wiped them out, or warning the natives against selling their land. The final touch comes when, because of his actions, the American colonies declare independence from Britain 174 years early. Unfortunately, it has consequences beyond his control — his presence causes the Marvel Universe to impose itself on the past, and period versions of the X-Men, The Avengers and other superheroes start appearing.

This has happened several times with Doctor Doom. The first time he was shunted back to the medieval age with Iron Man (And kept calling him Lackey because he was Tony Stark's bodyguard. It bothered Iron Man. A lot); a second time happened with Iron Man and The Sentry, though they were sent into the Silver Age and were desperately trying not to cause any Butterfly of Doom effects. Another time Doctor Doom's so called "Mentor" the Marquis of Death came by to fight the Fantastic Four and sent Doom, burnt alive, straight into prehistoric lands where he got eaten by a Megalodon. Naturally, Doom showed up a few issues later, boasting that he survived via The Power of Hate and took The Slow Path back to the present. Though it was later retconed that the Thunderbolts unwittingly saved Doom during an unrelated time travel adventure, and he merely hijacked their time machine to get back to the present.

Feng Shui 2, the new edition to Feng Shui, features Pop-Up Junctures, temporary portals to other places in time. Unlike the four established junctures, the Netherworld portals leading to pop-up junctures only stay open for a limited time, and thus there is a very real chance of getting stranded in another time if you don't make it back to the portal before it closes.

Eventually, she has to take The Slow Path by turning herself into an immortal dragon.

In the 1632 series, the West Virginia coal-mining town of Grantville is translocated to southern Germany in the middle of the Thirty Years' War by an "art" project by Alien Space Bats, utterly shattering the power structure and world view of Reformation Europe. The problems of the period, including communication with the natives by the transplanted West Virginians, wars and other conflicts, and the spread and control of diseases both of the 17th and 20th centuries are discussed in detail, often as significant plot points.

Why would they want go back to that future post-apocalyptic wasteland where they were the only humans left? Because their daughter had not returned with them. Shinji inmediately wanted to change the past but for a while Asuka was torn between trying to avert the end of the world or let it happen in hopes of finding Aki again.
