The Crackle just endorsed Manny as the official breakout TV character of the season, here are their reasoning:

Manny Modern Family

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.

What do you think? Who is your TV character of the season?

Backstage has an interview with Nolan Gould from Modern Family, here are some parts of the interview:
Nolan-Gould- Modern Family 2

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.

Another great episode for Modern Family (well every episode till now was great…). Here are some quotes for you:

Mitchell: “Why is our daughter dressed like Donna Summer?”
Cameron: “She is not Donna Summer, clearly she is Diana Ross from the RCA years. How is Daddy not seeing that?”

Mitchell: “I am fun! Remember breakfast for dinner last week? My idea.”

Gloria: “Batman doesn’t get picked on and he wears a cape. A poncho is just a cape that goes all the way around.”
Jay: “Batman doesn’t get picked on because he’s a muscular genius. Manny can’t make it to the top bunk.”

What was your favorite quote?

EW has 7 portraits of the stars of Modern Family, here are some of them, you can find the rest in EW.

I was eight-and-a-half months pregnant with twins while we shot the pilot. If you watch carefully, you see Im behind every laundry basket. Im answering the door folding towels. It was just a function of hiding my belly, but then it sort of became part of the character. Claire is always doing something. Shes never hanging out. Shes always folding or cleaning or doing something.

I applied for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College in 1995. I almost made it. They had five clowns applying for two spots left. They send you either an acceptance letter or a rejection letter. The acceptance letter, of course, is filled with confetti, so when you open it up all the confetti comes out. I didnt get the letter with the confetti.
