Selfie is an American television sitcom starring Karen Gillan and John Cho. Created and executive produced by Emily Kapnek for Warner Bros. Television, the series debuted on ABC during the 2014–15 television season. The series premiered on September 30, 2014. The pilot was made available early through video on demand and online streaming media on Twitter on August 20, 2014.
The show was canceled mid-season by ABC on November 7, 2014. On November 13, after broadcasting the seventh episode, ABC announced that they would pull the remaining episodes of Selfie and replace them with encore episodes of Shark Tank and Thanksgiving/Christmas specials.
On November 25, 2014, the first of the remaining six episodes was released online on Hulu and WatchABC.com. The rest followed on a weekly basis, with the last episode airing on December 30, 2014.
Despite being a short-lived series, critics later showed interest in Selfie as more episodes were released. There were also many supporters for the fan campaign to bring back the show. TV Guide called Selfie the "Best Turnaround" series of the decade. The series gained popularity in China on social media in recent years. Selfie was considered for a movie revival, but the project did not move forward after Warner Bros. declined to the sell film rights.
