The Selection's Unaired Pilot Is So Bad, I Couldn't Stop Laughing (2012)

I watched The Selection's unaired CW pilot, and it was somehow worse than you're imagining. Kiera Cass's dystopian romance book adaptation deserved better than... whatever this was. šŸ’€šŸ“ŗ The CW tried adapting The Selection TWICE. Two pilots. Both failed. This is the first one that never saw daylight, and honestly, that's for the best. I'm breaking down every baffling plot change, the dialogue that made me wheeze, and why this would've been the messiest Bachelor season in history. šŸ“š If you somehow missed the book: The Selection by Kiera Cass is a young adult dystopian series where 35 girls compete to marry a prince in a caste-ridden future America. It's peak 2010s YA chaos and I genuinely love it. Which made watching this pilot hurt even more. šŸ”” More failed book adaptations and romantasy breakdowns on my channel.
