Modern Family to Jump Space and Time à la Lost (or Maybe Just Go to Hawaii)

The Modern Family cast is in Hawaii right this second, filming their big “family vacation” episode.

E-Online just met up with the whole Modern Family cast and creator, and you aren’t going to believe this:

“What we’re trying to do is plant several modern families in several different times and then jump all around,” executive producer Steve Levitan told me. “And then we have a fully underwater episode, too. We’re really gonna embrace it. Why not?”

Clearly, he’s kidding. But so great that he’s a Lost fan! Levitan, who tweeted that this picture was “a good Hawaiian omen for our first day of shooting,” also fesses up his real motivations for taking the cast to Hawaii. “We’re just gonna try to just live up to the Brady Bunch Hawaii episode. It’s not a ratings ploy. Frankly, I’m tired and wanted to go to Hawaii.”

If you’re ever tempted to re-connect with an old lover on Facebook, just take a hint from Phil’s ex-girlfriend on ‘Modern Family’. She thinks his updates like “How was your day?” and “My neck is so sore” are an invitation to get back together.

Is Gabourey Sidibe coming to ‘Modern Family’?

If Jesse Tyler Ferguson has his way, Gabourey Sidibe will be headed to the Pritchett/Tucker household. In a new interview with NYPost.com’s PopWrap, the “Modern Family” star reveals that he’s actively approached the Oscar nominee about playing Lily’s nanny in an upcoming episode!

“The one person I actually have gone after — because she’d be so brilliant — is Gabourey Sidibe. I think she would be fantastic as a nanny we hire. She’s just so bubbly and sweet and a fan of the show. I think this would be a seamless fit for her,” Jesse tells PopWrap.

And that’s not all Jesse spilled — from Fred Williard’s return to an upcoming bird attack plotline — spoilers were abundant!

Modern Family Vs. SNL – Go Vote

For the month of March, Hulu is teaming up with fans and TV critic Ken Tucker (Entertainment Weekly) to see which of this season’s shows come out on top. This week Modern Family is facing SNL, so make sure to visit and vote for Modern Family!

Here is what EW say about Modern Family:

Modern Family may have the faux-documentary framework of The Office; it may have faces familiar from other comedies, but Modern Family is unique in the way it juggles so many players so deftly and makes every member of the cast a vivid, complex character. Oh, and it’s really funny, too.

And about SNL:

Now in its 35th season, Saturday Night Live is a pop cultural machine that’s likely to continue until producer Lorne Michaels decides to end it. It’s also found a core cast that frequently rescues almost any episode from being a mirthless washout – unless the obstacles include bad material and a dud host, that is.

Modern Family Scoops

Some news about upcoming Modern Family episodes come to us from IGN:

Stonestreet noted that they were actually shooting the season finale already, out of order from the rest of the season, while among the episodes already shot, “There’s a story where I join Dylan’s rock band, because their drummer goes missing. I play the drums, so I sit in for a night.”

Sofia Vergara (“Gloria Delgado-Pritchett”) mentioned one storyline in which, “[Cameron] takes me out to dinner to make up for something that he says.” Stonestreet elaborated, “I try to make up to her something kind of offensive that I accidentally said in front of her, so I take her out for an evening on the town, which goes horribly, horribly wrong.”

Ferguson also revealed some more specifics on upcoming episodes. “I get stuck in the apartment with a stray pigeon that I’m terrified of,” said the actor, adding, “There’s that! Hilarity ensues with a broom. My dad teaches me karate and accidentally knocks me out. That’s pretty funny. The writers are amazing. I couldn’t even begin to name all the hilarious moments that you have yet to see.”

Modern Family’s Nolan Gould Interview

Filed under: Actors 

Nolan Gould, the kid actor from Modern Family, was interveiwed for Portrait Magazine; here are some of the highlights:

What’s your character Luke like?
He gets no respect from the writers! They’re always thinking of new things for him to do and most people would think the things he does are stupid, but Luke thinks its genius! He’s an average kid, but he’s sweet inside!
Sounds like a fun character!
Oh yeah! He’s fun to play!

Which has been your favourite episode so far and why?
My favourite episode was Fisbo because I got to ride on a zip line, go on a rock-wall…I’m afraid of heights but I love rock-walls! After shooting the episode, I said we should have an after party there, and everyone loved the idea!

That’s a lot of stunts!!
Yeah, but I’ve taken a stunt class before, so I was prepared. I also do rappelling for fun, so I could do the rock wall.
