Another TV example which loosely fits your parameters (not entirely) is
the show "Life On Mars." Aside from the many questions about whether the
character actually has time-traveled into the past, and the fact that he
is in fact the same person, it might be worth a look, regardless.

It's a BBC production; both seasons (8 episodes each) are available on
DVD, but only in Region 2.
