Shortly before its August 1994 debut, ABC’s My So-Called Life was hailed by critics for setting “a standard that no new show can live up to.”
It was canceled the following January.
How that happened, and why it all came to an abrupt halt, has remained a source of fierce debate—until now.
So Beautiful It Hurts: The Making of My So-Called Life will be the first book to document the creative process behind this landmark series, including never-before-seen photos. Based on exclusive interviews with those in front of and behind the camera.
