I'm glad you liked it. I'm reluctant to write a full version because it feels like a season (or series) finale and I still have hope that it will continue. When I submitted something to the fan fiction writing contest, I deliberately did not resolve any of the major issues, trying to write a treatment for the…

My idea was that Saperstein would announce that Kinderkare was opening offices in London and that he needs two employees to go there and head up the transitional team for three months. After consideration he picks Henry and Eliza because they are a "winning combination."

I wonder if they are planning to go into Henry's background more if the show is picked up now that a lot of Eliza's issues with her past are resolved. In retrospect, I started to think that Eliza and Henry have something in common in that incidents involving throwing up were turning points in their lives. With…

I haven't totally given up hope that the show will be picked up but it is dimming now that Hulu & ABC have officially stated they won't do a second season.

Shouldn't they be calling this Crisis on Finite Earths?

I feel the same way, although I do use the term possible (or in my more pessimistic moments, probable) cancellation to keep a glimmer of hope alive.

Thank you for the very kind words. To clarify, I shortened this scene at the beginning, simply summarizing actions between Henry & Eliza when they go to his house rather than write out dialogue and specific actions. I did not leave out anything of substance. I'm sorry, but I can't think out a way of writing a…

I'll do a bit of a shortened version as I just finished a submission for the fanfic contest and I'm a bit burned out.

I hope you're wrong. I'm 56 and I had no problem with the interracial aspect. I would say the network didn't give the show a fair shot by pulling it early and giving it a weak time slot, so there was no real chance to put your theory to the test. I would also say that when you are doing a groundbreaking show such…

It's announced that they're going to make a TV movie of Corynn's life based on her book. This is too much for Eliza. She imagines her niece and hypothetical children watching it years from now. Working with Henry, they bring Corynn down. It becomes a learning experience for both of them. Eliza learns how to think…

I think he would have made a move on Eliza if not for the conversation with Freddy, but if he had it would have been for the wrong reasons. In the second conversation with Raj (where Raj thinks Henry's talking about what song to do at the party), Henry decides to pursue a relationship with Eliza but he puts it in…

I think Eliza was in so much pain that it could not be denied. I think the main reason Henry gave himself for coming back was her drinking and he wanted to make sure she was safe. Deep down, I think he was hoping he was wrong in his analysis of Eliza's relationship with Freddie. If he found out some way that she…

I think Henry did leave the building, wandered around for a couple of hours and came back (just my theory). I can't see Henry seeing Eliza in that much pain for that long and not doing anything.

That may have been a factor, but I think it may have been more because, at this point, Henry is playing the role of mentor/advisor to Eliza. She is trying to portray her life as perfect to her sister, a life where you would not need advice.

I did read the review and enjoyed it, though I do take issue with the line, "two people can't be together until they've really fixed themselves." The idea that a life can be "fixed" bothers me because life is a process of growth. My feeling is that, in the context of the show, that two people can't be together until…

I can't completely agree. To me, the main plot-point of Selfie is that the journey is as important as the destination. In that respect, I can see why they couldn't force an ending, but it's still frustrating to leave the characters at a transitional stage with the possibility that the show won't return.

I'm saying what Henry may be feeling in the moment. He does not know the state of her relationship with Freddy. As far as her relationship with Freddy goes, I think of it as a car without shock absorbers. It can run smoothly as long as they don't hit any bumps in the road. The paradox may be that as long as Henry…

To clarify, I think Henry's deepest hope is that he will have an another opportunity with Eliza, but he is acknowledging the possibility, at least in theory, that he might have blown his chances with her, and accept (if not fully embrace) the possibility that he may have to find someone else. I can't see Henry…

I would say the parallel does not hold up in many respects, particularly regarding the Henry characters. In the play, Higgins is clearly not interested in a romantic relationship and thinks Eliza will come back on his terms. In the show, Henry has gotten off the pedestal that he was on (and that Henry Higgins…

I think if Eliza wound up marrying Freddy, she would come to the conclusion that Nora arrives at in the last act of Ibsen's "A Doll's House" that she was never happy in her marriage but only merry and their home was nothing but a playroom and she was his doll-wife. (By the way, Ibsen was probably the playwright that…
