Like most Americans, however, the president does manage to find some time to hang out with his family in front of the TV.

“For the girls and me, ‘Modern Family,’ that’s our favorite show,” the President told People Magazine in an interview that hits stands Friday.

The fact that Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney watches “Modern Family” came as a surprise to Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who plays a gay dad on the ABC sitcom.

“Well I hope Mitt Romney is wondering why he likes the show so much,” the red-haired actor told New York Magazine earlier this week.

On tonight’s episode of Ryan Murphy’s FX drama American Horror Story, Stonestreet guest-stars as Derek, a tortured patient of Ben (Dylan McDermott) who is deathly afraid of urban legends. (Stonestreet has dabbled in darker characters prior to his Modern gig, appearing as a killer on The Mentalist and Pushing Daisies as well as an accused rapist/murderer on Nip/Tuck, another Murphy show.) The 40-year-old Emmy winner counted the ways that audiences will find Derek wholly different from Cam.

• Appearance. “My hair on Modern Family is a big part of my character. Cam’s hair is a fortress. It’s a 20-minute process every day with lots of hairspray and goo and blowdrying and brushes. And on this show, the character was described as unkempt. Dark circles under his eyes. Part of the story point is that he doesn’t have the confidence and courage to look in mirrors at all, because of a specific ghost story of what happens if you look in a mirror…. Cam most definitely has a tailor and Derek needs a tailor. If Cam finds a great shirt that he likes, he takes it to the tailor and he’ll add the extra colored cuffs. Derek definitely shops at Sears. He’s kind of an everyguy.”

Phil and Claire, for example, are surprised by their kids who show up on their bedroom with a special treat, but it comes in bad timing. Jay wants nothing more than to have a quiet birthday out fishing on the lake, but the family takes that as him wanting a big celebration.

TV’s Funniest Family Encourages Parents to Help Build Strong Families by “Pourenting.”

The Dunphys may be America’s funniest “Modern Family,” but Claire and Phil take their role as parents very seriously. The comedic couple knows the importance of pouring one more serving of milk a day.  Their goal is to build a strong modern family of their own and help fill the nation’s nutrient gap. That’s why Claire, Phil and family are the newest stars in their own Milk Mustache ad.

As mom to Haley, Alex and Luke, Claire wants to remind moms that they are role models for their families’ food choices, and encourage them to set a positive example by pouring one more glass of lowfat milk for herself, as well as for each member of her family every day. Pouring everyone one more serving of milk when the family is together is a simple way to ensure no one misses out on milk’s nine essential nutrients.

The ad copy reads, “Peerenting. Acting like a parent but talking like a peer might be Phil’s philosophy, but when it comes to helping my kids get out of the nutrient gap, I need to be the grown up. So I pour one more serving of milk a day. It’s something Phil likes to call ’pourenting’.”
