I really like this show. I do not love it like parks and recreation, But i still really enjoy this show a lot. There are times where the show can get too cheesy and sentimental at times. But there are times where the sweet moments on the show are just right. My biggest complaint with modern family is the theme song.
Last Nights Finale was one of the episodes where the sweet moments were just right. It was one of the funniest episodes this season. The Highlights were Cam giving dating advice to Manny. Also i loved that cam wanted to teach Manny how to play baseball. Also it was amazing that cam got kicked out of a bakery because he was giving advice to Manny on what speech Manny should give the girl he has a crush on. And everyone in the bakery think he was talking to a 6st grade girl. Than he says oh no i am talking to a little boy.
I felt like posting the clip because its funnier when you watch it.
Rob Hubel was a guest star last night. He is always funny, all though the storyline has been used in lots of sitcoms. The college em enemies, who are jealous of each other. Phil was jealous of Glen Whipple because he beat Phil at everything. I loved that glen was jealous that Phil got Clair in college. I think its funny that Phil pretend to be married to Gloria. I loved that glen Whipple expected Phil to be married to Clair. Than the rest of the episode he kept telling Clair he was lucky to be with her. It is a common sitcom storyline. But it did not take up a lot of space in the episode where it felt overkill.
I also loved the video Alex and Hayley's happy birthday. I loved that the video was lazy. I loved that they should have re shot everything and had everyone say happy birthday. But it was all embarrassing footage. I also loved that they gave it to Alex to re-edit the video. Which turned out bad. The disaster of the video was a funny storyline.
I like the storyline with Clair and Mitchell. Sneaking into the backyard of the house they grew up in. Than getting stuck in a tree house because they were scared of the dog in the back yard. Than being jealous of the new house owners being able to have a dog in that back yard. Than Being jealous of there step brother being able to have a dog. Because Manny is spoiled than they were.
I also love cam and Mitchell's decision to have another kid. And cam suggesting a boy.
I do like this show but at times it can be too much like a traditional sitcom. Also Luke has been overused. He is funny in small doses, Manny does acting does not impress me. I like Manny in small doses. But next season i could enjoy more with less Manny and Luke. I also think they are making Luke too dimwitted it can get old. Sometimes they do that with Phil too though.
( Side-note, Clair Pushing the wine bottle up against the tree to open the cork was one of the coolest things i have ever seen. I want to know how she did that.)
Modern Family is a traditional sitcom with a twist. It also is a modern traditional sitcom we would have seen in the 80's and 90's. But it shows that a non traditional family can seem traditional and normal. Its nice to see a new spin on the family sitcom. But i feel this show will be good for one or two more seasons. maybe a third if they are lucky. I do not see this show ageing well.
