Living with Yourself (Season 1)

Living with Yourself (2019) is an American Netflix comedy series you can watch online on iFILM, with Paul Rudd carrying both lead roles from opposite ends of the same life. The show comes from directors Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton, who previously made Little Miss Sunshine.

Miles is stuck. His marriage to Kate — played by Aisling Bea — is going nowhere, his career has flatlined and he can't remember the last time he felt like himself. A tip from a colleague sends him to a strip-mall spa that promises a new and improved version of the customer. Miles wakes up in a shallow grave in the woods. The improved version of him is already home, already charming Kate, already killing it at the office. Each episode replays the same stretch of time through a different Miles's eyes, and the format keeps the comedy from getting too comfortable.

Rudd's double performance is the engine here. Both versions of Miles are flawed in specific, recognisable ways, and the show is smart enough not to tell you which one deserves to win. Eight episodes, one season, no filler. Stream Living with Yourself (2019) online on iFILM.
