Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Living With Yourself is an American Netflix original comedy series that premiered on October 18th, 2019.The series follows Miles Elliot (Paul Rudd), an advertising copywriter stuck in a dead-end job, a failing marriage and consequently stricken with ennui about his life. On advice from a co-worker, he decides to undergo an experimental new treatment which promises to rejuvenate him to the point where he's practically a new person. Unfortunately, Miles only realises too late that they mean this literally — the process creates a clone of Miles (Paul Rudd) who, much to Miles's chagrin, appears to be better at living his life than Miles is. The two consequently have to figure out a way of existing with each other without completely destroying Miles Elliot's life in the process — or killing each other.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Always Someone Better: Both versions of Miles experience this towards the other. The original Miles hates that the clone is more positive, friendly and optimistic than he is, with a better work ethic and social skills than he possesses, to the point where he starts becoming more successful in Miles's life. The clone, however, is insecure because at the end of the day this is all the original's life; he has no past or lived experiences of his own and doesn't really know who he is, whereas Miles at least has all of this.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

A Date with Rosie Palms: Clone Miles' love life basically becomes this to pictures of Kate. It's implied that the treatment increases the clones' sexual desire.

The Ace: Clone Miles is genetically designed to be this, being athletic, charismatic, kindhearted, and intelligent. This is partially why Kate breaks up with him - he is too great, too perfect. As a regular, flawed human being, she finds trying to keep up with him exhausting.
