ABC’s ‘Modern Family’ a freshman hit

February 8, 2010 by · 1 Comment
Filed under: reviews 

A young man arrived at Ty Burrell‘s hotel room to stock the minibar and immediately recognized the co-star of the ABC comedy “Modern Family.”
He loved the show.
Thanks, Burrell replied. The man went on to quietly describe how his family gathered each week to watch “Modern Family” together, and because of those group viewings, he was getting to know his younger siblings better.
“I know we’re not curing cancer,” said Burrell, who portrays the earnest goofball dad Phil Dunphy, “but it feels nice to see people affected by the show.”
“Modern Family” is the most critically acclaimed and popular new comedy of the TV season, the centerpiece of ABC’s Wednesday lineup and already renewed for a second season. Not only does it fulfill a comedy’s central mission — provide genuine laughs — it nudges preconceptions and isn’t afraid to show some heart amid a sea of snark and irony on television.
More than heart was on display one recent evening when “Modern Family” commandeered a Los Angeles hotel lobby to shoot some scenes. Hoots and hollers from crew members alerted those whose heads were turned the wrong way that they had missed actress Julie Bowen streaking across a room clad only in a bodysuit.
Bowen, who portrays Claire Dunphy, was about to film a scene in which she’s supposed to be naked underneath a trench coat. You’ll just have to watch the episode that airs Wednesday at 9 p.m. EST to find out why.

Here are the ratings:
CBS was first at 8 p.m. with a 34.9 for the Super Bowl, with Fox second with a 1.2 for repeats of “The Simpsons” and “The Cleveland Show.” Univision was third with a 0.9 for the end of its movie, ABC fourth with a 0.7 for “Modern Family” and “The Middle” reruns, and NBC fifth with a 0.4 for more “Loser.”

At 9 p.m. CBS was first again with a 33.5 for the Super Bowl, followed again by Fox with a 1.3 for repeats of “Family Guy” and “American Dad.” Univision was third with a 1.0 for the first hour of the movie “Sor Tequila,” ABC fourth with a 0.9 for repeats of “Modern Family” and “Cougar Town” and NBC fifth with a 0.5 for still more “Loser.”

‘Modern Family’ – ‘Moon Landing’ Highlights

Modern Family moon landing

“Do people want their real estate advice from someone who leads, or someone who follows? I’m bettin’ these babies (points to mustache) are coming back in a big way. Buy low, sell high. People are going to see this and say, ‘That guy’s high.’” – Phil

We had a great night last night, and here are some of the highlights from reviews of ‘Modern Family’ – ‘Moon Landing’:

From TVsquad:
Sometimes I wonder if I could just write up a review of ‘Modern Family’ by listing all of the great quotes that come out of this show. Line for line, this has to be one of the cleverest series on television today. Even the episode title, ‘Moon Landing,’ recalls a great moment.

From EW:
Could last night’s episode of Modern Family been any funnier? I mean, I may as well have transcribed the entire episode, because every line had me practically running to my own Porta-Potty.

Modern Family Moon Landing

Highlights from CliqueClack:

  • Luke imaging the cool school made of recycled bottles.
  • “I can’t imagine you working.” – Luke, to his mom
    “Luke, that is very offensive to women. Your mom works very hard. It’s just now she works for us.” – Phil
  • “I don’t take kindly when someone Tom Selleck’s my park bench.” – Phil
  • “What’s Jägermiester?”- Alex
    “Well, um, you know when in a fairy tale there’s always a potion that makes the princess fall asleep and then the guys start kissing her? This is like that, except you don’t wake up in a castle, you wake up in a frat house with a bad reputation.” – Phil
  • Say Anything, Dylan. And please, stop talking. You’re making the generation gap even more embarrassing for Phil.
