Selfie (2015)

The short-lived Selfie remains a fascinating artifact of mid-2010s television. Though its title suggested a shallow premise, the series evolved into a charming, modern reimagining of Pygmalion. By pairing Karen Gillan’s social-media-obsessed Eliza Dooley with John Cho’s buttoned-up Henry Higgs, the show challenged traditional sitcom tropes and broke ground with a diverse romantic pairing. Its cancellation sparked a passionate fan campaign, highlighting its impact on a dedicated audience. Today, it is remembered for its sharp wit and its prescient commentary on digital validation and genuine human connection. The show’s warmth and clever writing continue to win over new viewers through streaming and social media clips. You should set a reminder just in case any news of a revival or a spiritual successor finally surfaces.
