Understanding Cb and Cr Components of YCbCr Color Space
YUV (or YCbCr) is like HSV, but in different coordinates. (The difference between YUV and YCbCr is marginal - mostly related to exact formulas).

The $V$ component is the same. $(S,H)$ can be thought of as polar coordinates, and $(U,V)$ as cartesian. $H$ is the angle and $S$ is the radius. A rough conversion would be:

$ U = S \cdot \cos(H) $

$ V = S \cdot \sin(H) $

Another thing to add to your intuition list:

Saturation is how pure the color is from spectral point of view. For example, a laser has a very narrow spectrum, which implies high saturation.
