Finally! Fifty years after the release of the film My Fair Lady, ABC has decided to turn the film into a television series. Well, not exactly. But, basically, yes. The book known as Pygmalion, which became the film called My Fair Lady is now the sitcom TV series Selfie.
Selfie (sometimes advertised as #Selfie) stars Karen Gillan as Elize Dooley. The character is not to be confused with Elize Doolittle. The show also stars John Cho as Henry. Henry does not have a last name at this point, but I can only imagine that it is Higginsworth or Higgley, or maybe even Huggins.
The show is not as bad as I had hoped, but not as amaaazing as I had read. I have not yet decided if it will save the generation of young people born since 1990. But, it may give their parents and professors hope.
Check it out onDemand. JSYK, Selfie premieres on ABC on September 30th.
