My So-Called Life
Nineties adolescent drama
My So-Called Life was a 1994 American television drama following a teenage girl navigating high school, family, and identity.
Though canceled after one season, it became a cult classic for its raw, authentic portrayal of adolescent life.
The title phrase sometimes appears in ironic self-deprecation about one's circumstances: Welcome to my so-called life.
