TVLine’s Performer of the Week: Selfie‘s Karen Gillan
A weekly feature in which we spotlight shining stars
THE PERFORMER | Karen Gillan
THE SHOW | Selfie
THE EPISODE | “Here’s This Guy”
THE AIRDATE | November 11, 2014
THE PERFORMANCE | ABC’s recent decision to cancel its freshman sitcom Selfie is, on many levels, as cruel and capricious as a hunter taking a shot at a baby bird making its maiden flight from the nest.

Last Tuesday’s episode found Gillan’s Eliza experiencing unexpected pangs of jealousy as her mentor (and sole non-digital friend) Henry embarked on a romantic relationship with another woman. Right from the opening scene, in which Henry came to install a rotary phone in Eliza’s apartment, Gillan’s guileless smile allowed the audience to see how a woman-child obsessed with Facebook and Twitter “likes” was beginning to realize the power of liking a human being right in front of her.
