Sofia Vergara Interview [source: Crave Online]
Sofia Vergara, who plays Gloria Delgado-Pritchett On Modern Family, has an interview in Crave Online.
Here are some interesting Q&As:
Crave Online: Does Modern Family match your sense of humor?
Sofia Vergara: Yeah. I’ve done a lot of comedy but it’s pretty much in the same kind of stuff. The character is great because it’s very easy for me because she’s a Latin woman from Colombia. She has kind of like my personality so it’s fun.
Crave Online: It’s great that your character is Colombian like you. Have you been asked to play other types of Latinas that felt distant to you?
Sofia Vergara: No, not really distant because Latin people, we’re all kind of the same but we have specific differences like foods or music. But I think our personalities are all in general the same. We all have the same values with family. We all have the same morals so it’s like all the same.
Crave Online: Is your character a trophy bride or is there more to their relationship?
Sofia Vergara: I think in a way it’s a trophy wife to Ed which I think is perfectly good. I think it’s very normal and it doesn’t have to be taken as something bad I think because it’s a reality of course. Any man that age that has opportunity to marry a woman like her would do it, you know. If she’s a good woman, somebody that is going to do good things for his life. Obviously, this is a couple that they share other things in common and other things not in common. But I think she doesn’t care about that because he’s very good to her and she is good to him.

Pick up: ‘Modern Family’
Metromix has ranked all the new fall shows and the verdict for Modern Family is “Pick up”. Here is what they have to say about Modern Family:
Premiere ratings: 12.7 million viewers, 8.0/13 overall
Most recent ratings: 9.99 million viewers, 3.8/10 overall
In plain English: “Modern Family” had a surprisingly strong start, and has continued on that track in its following weeks.
None of ABC’s attempts at comedy this fall are going over quite as well as “Modern Family.” The mockumentary-style sitcom about a dysfunctional clan is one Liza Minnelli cameo shy of a well-deserved “Arrested Development” comparison. Cancellation would be a crime.

‘Modern Family’ – Cameron (Eric Stonestreet)
One of the best surprises of “Modern Family” is Eric Stonestreet (see IMDb profile), who plays Cameron. The guy is so funny…
Eric just did an interview for Variety in which he said about himself: “I always say I’m the straight version of Cameron,” Stonestreet says. “I’m a little bit flamboyant myself and have a flair for the dramatic. Who says those are bad things? I think they have their place. Cameron doesn’t let moments pass. He is a celebrator of life and people.”
KansasCity ran an article about Eric, who is from Kansas. In the interview Eric said about the audition: “It was the audition every actor wanted, and I know they saw a tremendous number of people,” – we are so glad he got the part.

The Top Five Hits of the Fall TV Season
Newsweek calls “Modern Family” : “the funniest new comedy of the season”. Newsweek ranked the top 5 hits of the TV season and here they are:
No. 5: FlashForward (ABC)
No. 4: Modern Family (ABC)
No. 2 (Tie): Cougar Town (ABC) and NCIS: Los Angeles (CBS)
No. 1: The Cleveland Show
Here is their take on “Modern Family”:
Another winner from ABC built on an effective campaign, but this was a much easier sell than FlashForward, simply because it’s the funniest new comedy of the season. The early buzz and reviews for this family mockumentary were almost unanimously enthusiastic. All that was required was to get to viewers to wonder if the show could possibly be as funny as those persnickety critics were saying it was. Fortunately, it is just that funny. And given that the second episode packs more laughs than the pilot (a rarity), Modern Family has room to grow.
Modern Family Episode 2 Ratings are in
Zap2it reports the rating for Wednesday:
Wednesday night’s ratings were significantly cooler than during premiere week, with pretty much every new show and several returning ones falling from their premieres. ABC’s “Modern Family” and “Cougar Town” still posted solid demographic ratings, though, and CBS’ crime dramas led the network to an overall win for the night. One exception to the downward trend was “Glee,” which actually built its audience over last week.
9 p.m.
CBS: “Criminal Minds” (13.6 million, 8.6/14)
ABC: “Modern Family” (9.9 million, 6.0/10)/”Cougar Town” (9.1 million, 5.7/9)
NBC: “Law & Order: SVU” (7.9 million, 5.3/8)
FOX: “Glee” (7.3 million, 4.4/7)
The CW: “Melrose Place” rerun (1.1 million, 0.8/1)
18-49 leader: “Modern Family” (3.7) – Yeah!!!
