Still looking for your ABC replacement to Happy Endings (and now Suburgatory)? Meet next comedy series, Selfie.

Leading up to the pending fall 2014 season of shows arriving next month, ABC Networks is once again already attempting to attract new viewers with multiple series. With Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal and Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. serving as the flagship shows, new series are arriving highlighted by Manhattan Love Story, Marvel’s Agent Carter and Selfie.

EMMY-nominated writer nominated, Emily Kapnek readies her social media-themed comedy series starring Karen Gillan, John Cho and Amber Rose. Loosely based on My Fair Lady, the new show centers on young Eliza Dooley (Karen Gillan) obsessed with gaining fame through use of social media via Instgraming personal pictures (see: series title).

Eliza soon sees her dream coming true after a video goes viral and has to hire a self-image guru to re-brand her image, after learning there’s more to the world outside of the realm of her iPhone. Whether the storyline is intriguing enough to grasp the masses, you can watch the official pilot above, ahead of its official September 30th airing on ABC.
