I know I'm late to the game on this one, but Modern Family is my new favorite show! I started watching last Fall because I heard such great things about it. I'm glad I did. I find myself laughing out loud at multiple points each episode.
Modern Family is the perfect depiction of what a family of today may look like. The father remarries a gorgeous, younger single mom, the father's son is gay who adopts a little asian girl with his partner, the daughter is married to an awkwardly hilarious guy and they have three children. The oldest daughter is attractive without a brain, the middle child brainiac, and the corky, innocent, only son. It's a bit interesting when your son and your father's new wife's son are the same age. That also makes you and the new wife's son step-siblings! Lol.
Families now-a-days are made up of all shapes, religions, races, genders, dynamics, etc. Modern Family shows the day-to-day lives of a normal, family of the 2000s. Mike's favorite is Phil Dunphy, the awkwardly hilarious dad. The dynamic between characters make for hysterically funny scenes and episodes about simple and relatable things that a family may go through.
We're a bit behind, but Modern Family just aired their season five finale. The finale featured Cameron and Mitchell's (the gay couple) wedding. I can't wait to see it! And did you know that Cam is actually straight in real life? Blew my mind! He plays a wonderful gay man. I read that his co-star and partner on the show (who is gay in real life) said that Cam is "gay for pay." I died.
So, if you are looking for something to watch on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays until season six starts on ABC, tune into USA Network for Modern Family marathons and prepare to laugh...a lot.
