Modern Family is one of my VERY FAVORITE TV shows. It ranks right up there at the top of my “must watch” list. I think its strongest point is that it has so many different strong characters thanks to such an outstanding cast. It makes it hard to choose favorites (although if I was pressed to choose just one it would have to be Gloria). I can’t wait for season 7 to begin in just a few weeks!
In the meantime, Modern Family Season Six is arriving on DVD September 22! Mitch and Cam’s honeymoon is over, but the laughs continue in Season Six of “Modern Family,” winner of five consecutive Emmy® Awards for Outstanding Comedy Series. As the newly married couple acclimate to the realities of wedded bliss, Phil and Claire find their marriage stressed by annoying neighbors, Thanksgiving dinner gone awry and Claire’s online snooping. Meanwhile, a spy-camera drone wreaks havoc in Jay and Gloria’s backyard and a close call on the highway leads to amusing changes in various members of the Pritchett-Dunphy clan. It all adds up to the funniest season yet of this brilliant and acclaimed comedy.
MODERN FAMILY – “Summer Lovin'” – Emmy award winning and critically acclaimed series “Modern Family” returns for its seventh season with the premiere episode, “Summer Lovin,” on WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 (9:00-9:31 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. Haley’s attempt to stop Andy from proposing to Beth will end up with both Haley and Andy needing to cope with their emotions and both will have their own special ways of doing so, and Phil and Claire seem to only make matters worse. Jay and Gloria look at pre-schools for Joe and get a rude awakening after they realize the competitive wait list to get in. Meanwhile, Cam tries to remain supportive of Mitch’s midlife career crisis, but money is getting a little tight, so Cam comes up with a scheme to get Mitch’s old job back. (ABC/Eric McCandless)
