The Crackle Endorses Manny from Modern Family
The Crackle just endorsed Manny as the official breakout TV character of the season, here are their reasoning:
He wears aftershave. He drinks coffee. He dons a poncho. He plays the pan flute. He does culturally sensitive dance numbers. He’s ten.
It’s all just Manny being Manny.

Nolan Gould Interview [source: Backstage]
Backstage has an interview with Nolan Gould from Modern Family, here are some parts of the interview:
ACTOR2WATCH: How do you like being on “Modern Family”?
NOLAN GOULD: I really love the show. People are really nice on set. The food is good. Everybody is really funny, not just when they’re acting, but when they’re off-set too.
A2W: Who’s your favorite actor and why?
NG: I would say Jim Parsons from “The Big Bang Theory.” His demeanor and his little smirks, his little facial expressions just make me laugh cause it’s funny. Ty Burrell from “Modern Family” is also really good. He’s great at improving, and he acts like a little kid in the show. But the funny thing is he’s actually a little kid basically.
A2W: Have you started getting recognized? How about fan letters?
NG: No, no fan letters yet. When I go into audition rooms, some of the acting people notice me and say “Hey, you’re that kid from “Modern Family,” right?” And so that’s pretty cool. All my relatives back in Alabama know.
