* CutShort: Subverted as the premise and the way the final episode ended gives a pretty satisfying resolution to all three storylines. The 1991 segments end with Alex moving on from his crush on Nori after finding a connection with another girl at his school, which allows him to eventually meet his wife Sarah years later. The 2017 segments show him moving out of Ron's garage, which represents him getting over his divorce from Sarah and moving forward with his life. Finally the 2042 segments show Eleanor realizing her feelings for Alex and getting together with him which concludes their story.

Although the show had promise and wit, and was creative in its own right, it was seen as an attempt to [[FollowTheLeader duplicate the success]] of the critically-acclaimed series ''Series/ThisIsUs'' on rival network Creator/{{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 ''Series/{{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, will contractually fulfill a promise to broadcast all its unaired episodes, but invariably did so in an undesirable [[FridayNightDeathSlot weekend timeslot]] in mid-July of 2018, alongside another failed series, ''Series/LivingBiblically''. CBS compensated for the low ratings by pulling forward the return of ''Series/ManWithAPlan'' for Season 2 the same week the seventh episode of this series would have aired.
