Living with Yourself

This show has a great concept with a set-up for an amazing series. However, this series was 8 episodes, that went through many many different story arcs in a very short amount of time. It feels as though the show lacked the time and depth that it should have received. Some episodes or parts of episodes are done very very well, however sometimes full episodes or parts of episodes seem pointless and tedious. This show is a show I wish was re-rewritten into a proper film with proper length and scripts, however, it was not that. I would recommend the first 4 episodes or so, but the last half felt like an encore that no one asked for, and no one wanted. It's purpose made no sense.

What a show it was. Paul rudd is so amazing even when he is in a serious character. It was so great to see two paul rudds in a single screen. Story was different. Never gets bore. Naration was clever

"Living with yourself" is based on a rather unoriginal concept, yet comes across as super original. Make sense?

So basically this guy (Paul Rudd) hates the way his life is going. He is unmotivated, uninspired, and depressed. Right when he's lost all hope, "Miles" is recommended by his friend to go to this weird, techy, magic, voodoo spa thing (where all hell will soon ensue).

Low and behold a clone of miles is made, the exact same version of himself except well, he's better in absolutely everything, so actually, he's not the same at all.

It's the most perfect execution of self vs self i've ever seen on television. Miles is in this incredible war with, well, literally himself. He's fighting for his job, his wife, his sanity, the list goes on.

It's a complex idea portrayed in an incredibly simplistic manner. At times may comes across as dull or boring, but for all the right reasons. This show has a very deep underlying meaning that won't appeal to everyone. I think it's pretty damn brilliant for that reason exactly.

I wouldn't say it's a show one would get emotionally invested to, character development is meh, but it is really entertaining and easy to follow.

Paul Rudd is absolutely magical in this role and Aisling Bea is the perfect co-star.

I'm excited to see where the show goes after this first season..!

I was enticed by the trailers... it seemed like a bit of a thriller with a little bit of sci fi and some comedy... And it started out that way. But after maybe 3 or 4 episodes, it's started to deteriorate into more of a rom com with extra cringe worthy moments that seemed more like something from Full House. But since I had already invested so much time watching the first half of the series, I just kept going. I truly wish they had used the beginning, and then taken the best parts out of the rest and made that into a movie. It really should have just been a movie.

Why are people negative about this show? I binge-watched it. It's original, funny, twisted. Great acting by Paul Rudd.
