Excellent!

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

Rudd x2

What's better than a show/movie with Paul Rudd in it? A show with two Paul Rudd.

Rudd plays the double character role very well. So well that it's hard to tell it's a split screen.

A well made show that almost matches the quality of a high budget movie. Great premise with loveable characters.

Should have been a movie

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.

A cool concept, but not a great follow through

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.

Paul Rudd Surprised me.

I don't write reviews but I just want to acknowledge this show. It's different. Quirky. Funny. Sad. Reminds me of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Being John Malkovich. Paul Rudd is amazing. You will forget he's playing both parts. At times this show stuck with me and made me think about my own relationship and my version of myself. And there was this one scene...it will never leave me. Bravo Paul Rudd.

Trivia
Since 2004, Paul Rudd has participated in a long-running gag every time he has appeared on Conan O'Brien's television programs, ostensibly to promote whatever project he is starring in at the time. But instead of a clip from that real movie or TV show, he instead always shows the same clip from the 1980s children's sci-fi adventure movie (and McDonald's advertisement) "Mac and Me," in which a child's wheelchair breaks, runs out of control, and sends the kid careening over a cliff; the alien "Mac" pops up at the end of the clip to save him. When Rudd appeared on O'Brien's show to promote "Living with Yourself," the appearance followed the same format: Rudd pretended to have brought a clip from the real show and even described which scene from "Living with Yourself" the clip would be from, but when it rolled it was instead, once again, the same clip from "Mac and Me"--with one difference: at the end, instead of one Mac popping up, the clip had been digitally altered so that two Macs appeared (a nod to "Living with Yourself"'s cloning theme).
