With any new TV comedy, nation are going to estimate relatively it with "Arrested Unravelling", which is in its various senses regarded as one of the greatest shows ever by many. "Modern Family" is not quite "A.D.", but I can see why some nation may estimate relatively the two.
"Modern Family", like "Arrested Unravelling", is a comedy about a wacky extended household that is filmed in a to a certain extent-documentary manner of writing, like to "The Service". The characters don't take cognizance of the camera, but they do grant or bestow (as a share) "talking seat of the brain" segments to postscript the movement. The exhibit is less cartoony and surreal than "Arrested Unravelling" or "30 Stone", but the comedy can still get fair off-the-wall.
The the whole toss is large. There are three branches of a sole household. The patriarch (Ed O'Neill) has re-matrimonial, bringing a Colombian-born wife and her son into the cot or cote. The daughter (Julie Bowen) and her matrimonial man (Ty Burrell) have three kids. The son (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and his colleague (Eric Stonestreet) have just adopted a Vietnamese infant babe. The exhibit focuses mainly on the parents and how they lift their families and interact with each other in today's fellowship.
My darling figure is Phil (Burrell), who plays the dad who tries to be "hip". He instrument well, but he's really charitable of a wimpy matrimonial man. Phil's always putting himself in unhandy situations (without always realizing it) and some of his lines are mirthful. He tries so solid to be the "somewhat cold dad". Next I like Cameron (Stonestreet), who's gay and over-weening of it. He's sensible and perceptive and he has some large lines, too.
Although I port't really associated with the exhibit like I have with some others (just a substance of private manner of writing), there's no denying that Modern Family Review is an above-medial sum or quantity comedy. It's written well, with moisture sewn throughout the pile of each incidental narrative, and each incidental narrative packs some cachinnation-out-resounding moments. And I say this as someone who seldom actually bursts into audible laughing. (Sometimes, with shows like "A.D." or "30 Stone".) This exhibit does it, though. Phil, in particular, has me in stitches.
To accord confer you a relative estimate, I'd say modern family episode list is like a gibbet between "The Service" and "Arrested Unravelling". Presented more like the former, with moisture and easy in mind drifting more toward the latter. More grounded in truth than "A.D.", though, and without some of the triplicate-entendres and zingers.
The exhibit finds windows to slink in some healthy household moral philosophy like togetherness and reception, but the episodes always end with a cachinnation.
But the rumors are real. "Modern Family" IS a very droll new comedy. Repression it out on ABC or ABC.com if you don't believe me. (Or wherever else it's available.) It definitely should be on your radar.
