help Selfie FAQ
Is Selfie about a YouTube star named Hannah Wells?
No. Karen Gillan plays Eliza Dooley, a social-media-obsessed pharmaceutical sales representative who asks marketing expert Henry Higgs, played by John Cho, to improve her real-world reputation.
Is the sitcom Selfie based on My Fair Lady?
Yes. Eliza Dooley and Henry Higgs are modernized versions of Eliza Doolittle and Henry Higgins, and the series reworks the Pygmalion story around online identity and workplace relationships.
Why does Selfie have only one season?
ABC canceled the sitcom during its initial 2014 run and removed it from the broadcast schedule after seven episodes. The remaining installments were released online, bringing the complete season to 13 episodes.
Do Eliza and Henry become a couple in Selfie?
The series develops genuine romantic feelings between them, complicating Henry's original role as Eliza's image mentor. Because the show ended after 13 episodes, their relationship is left without the long-term resolution a second season might have provided.
