Selfie

Slow start but ramps up quickly. The Chemistry between the two leads was off the charts. A quick binge. First American TV show with an Asian American Male lead (geez..finally) Such a shame it was only one season.

As others have commented here, I'd seen the title listed before and had absolutely no interest in seeing this--until I saw it starred Karen Gillian and John Cho.

In watching the pilot I was delighted to discover this is a modern adaptation of My Fair Lady, without the singing and expanded to a series. Whether or not the writers can manage to make it work in this format is yet to be seen, but the pilot looks good. Gillian and Cho have a high standard to live up to with their modern versions of characters popularized by Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison, but these two may actually be able to pull it off. I don't believe there are many performers today that could.

In short, if you like Gillian, Cho, My Fair Lady, or Pygmalion (the original story on which My Fair Lady was based,) you have to see this show. If you are unfamiliar with any of them, check it out anyway, you may find the time watching it well worth it.

Honestly though, the worst thing I find in this show is the title "Selfie". It turned me off and I wouldn't have bothered watching had it not been for the stars. Rebranded, this show could be a winner.

Cho and Gillan are perfection in their roles. Sides characters are also funny but occasionally over the top.

I wasn't expecting much from this show but after reading a few reviews I gave it a try. This quickly became one of my all time favorites and I just can't believe I won't see any more of it! There are a few series that I would expect to be canceled before this one. I am disappointed because ABC gave up so quickly, they didn't give it a chance it deserves..Shame on you ABC! Of course it isn't pure perfection but it is SO entertaining, funny and perky like its main character. Eliza and Henry are an unusual but very likable combination. ABC should've finished the season properly at least. Now I have a feeling of unfinished thing and I hate it. Watch this show because it will make you happy in just a few minutes. The only problem is that you'll be sad after you finish watching it ...

Okay, first of all, I will admit that I, too was thrown off by the name. Who wants to watch a show about a narcissistic twentysomething when I can just go on instagram?

BUT THAT'S THE POINT!!!

Henry Higgs (sexiest marketing guru alive) helps Eliza Dooley to realize that there's more to live besides taking selfies, getting "likes", and having adoring online fans. In the midst of it all, their relationship blossoms and their chemistry is CRAZY.

We're talking ovary-exploding sexual tension.

On top of that, this is the FIRST strong Asian-American male lead on television. And we're in 2014, people!

Please, ABC - renew this wonderful show that speaks to so many of us. We can't let Selfie die. #thestruggleisreal #saveselfie
