Me, Myself, and I is a dramedy that premiered on CBS in 2017. It stars Bobby Monynihan, Jack Dylan Grazer and John Larroquette, who share the role of Alex Riley across three different time periods as Alex is forced to confront life-changing events and learns how to cope and move on. Each episode tends to be based around a theme that affects his life across the three time periods, often revealing how a critical moment in Alex's past impacts his later life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); }) 1991: Alex Riley (Jack Dylan Grazer) is a 14-year-old boy, recently uprooted from Chicago to LA. His mom has found a new husband, and now Alex has a brand new family and a brand new school to navigate. 2017: Alex Riley (Bobby Moynihan) is a 40-year-old, recently divorced, single dad and inventor whose career has hit the skids. He's now trying to get back on his feet and raise his daughter as best he can. 2042: Alex Riley (John Larroquette) is a 65-year-old, recently retired billionaire. Stepping away from his business after a heart attack, he decides to make the most of his golden years in the future.Throughout it all, Alex is backed by a strong network of family and friends who love and support him while also simultaneously exasperated at how thickheaded he can be.Although the show had promise and wit, and was creative in its own right, it was seen as an attempt to duplicate the success of the critically-acclaimed series This Is Us on rival network NBC. As a result of this perception, despite having merit, viewers were turned off of the show perhaps a bit too prematurely and presumptuously, which ultimately pummeled the prospects of this series. Thus, Me, Myself, and I didn't pull in enough ratings for CBS to carry it forward, and, like the earlier network show Doubt, it was abruptly pulled off the air and cancelled before its season panned out (six episodes in; Doubt only lasted 2 episodes); it, like Doubt and its 13-episode run, would contractually fulfill a promise to broadcast all its unaired episodes, but invariably did so in an undesirable weekend timeslot in mid-July of 2018, alongside another failed series, Living Biblically. CBS compensated for the low ratings by pulling forward the return of Man with a Plan for Season 2 the same week the seventh episode of this series would have aired.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
Me, Myself, and I / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: A lesson all three versions of Alex has to learn repeatedly is that you have to work through the hard times in order to find happiness. The 2017 segments show that the struggles he faced in 1991 resulted in him forming strong family bonds with Ron and Justin and found a best friend in Darryl and that in the face of his ugly divorce, they are there for him no matter what.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
