ABC’s ‘Modern Family’ a freshman hit
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.

Modern Family SuperBowl Ratings
The reruns of Modern Family had a hard competition with the form of the Superbowl, but some people did decide to watch it instead of the Saints.
Here are the ratings:

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.”
CBS was first again at 10 p.m. with a 15.6 for the end of its Super Bowl coverage and the start of “Undercover Boss,” with ABC second with a 1.3 for more “Modern Family” reruns. Univision was third with a 0.8 for the end of its movie and NBC fourth with a 0.7 for yet another hour of “Loser.”

Mega Buzz: Scoop on “Modern Family” ABC
Here is a scoop about ABC’s Modern Family from TV Guide:
What crazy things will Phil do next on Modern Family? — Amy
MICKEY: Last week Julie Bowen teased some sexytime between Claire and Phil, but she tells us there might be one obstacle: Facebook. “My husband has ex-girlfriends who get in touch with him and I have ex-boyfriends that get in touch with me, and we laugh about it. This being Modern Family though, it’s going to take a twist for the worse,” she says. That twist is the always enjoyable Judy Greer, who pops in to play Phil’s unstable ex. This reminds me of that time that I reconnected with that girl from the gym who taught me how to stretch. Oh wait, that wasn’t Facebook. Never mind!
