'Modern Family' recap: Fright night

I don’t know about you guys, but I really missed my Family these past two weeks, and this episode was the perfect welcome back. Read the full post.

    BORING!

    • calliesmom

      Yes Michael, the high-brow 2-1/2 Men is probably more your speed as you do not have to think about one part of the male body and you know the plot.

  • Laura

    Love it! I missed it so much the last few weeks — it’s great that it’s back!

    “But doesn’t she need to be getting more teeth? I take her to the park and these other kids, they look like sharks” Cam to pediatrician. Hilarious.

  • JC

    Pediatrician: Pandas are from China…uh..well..it really doesn’t matter. (looking away)

    (when asked if he wants to go fishing)
    Manny: Well, then yeah. Cuz there’s no place were I’m more at one with the…
    Jay: Just go get your coat.

    Driving Instructor: Yo, let’s move it 3 strikes.
    (Haley deep breathing)
    Claire: That’s more than 3 breathes, honey.

  • JC

    1 more.

    For the first 6 months of her life, Lily was raised by very loving Asian women in an orphanage, with whom she clearly bonded. And then you come in with all your Asian-ness..and..and breasts… and womb and lady bits….

  • Abe

    I thought the joke about Cam and Mithchell’s lesbian friends and their motorcycle was pretty funny.

    • CIP

      Agree. Talking about stereotypes…

  • Laura

    Yes — I liked that too, when Mitchell feels bad that he stereotyped their lesbian friends by not thinking they could give a girly doll, and then he asks if they brought back their coffemaker, and Cam says no, it didn’t fit on the motorcycle… Love it!

  • Cheryl

    The reasoning Cam had for inviting the pediatrician over was hysterical with the tamiflu shots. This show has way too many funny parts to keep track of – lol.

  • Pam

    Cam and Mitch are my faves but Manny is very quickly gaining on them.

  • Kristi

    How could you forget, Alex’s best quip “you and dad together suddenly makes so much sense.” hehe, great recap, love love love this show!

  • BJohnson

    The lines were great. Notice Luke took 3 big breaths before going under the house?
    Haley forgetting to put the car in park after she got her license (not as funny as Phil getting hit by the car funny but funny none the less).

  • Stephanie

    1) Can we please put this recap with the rest of the recaps? It deserves it’s own billing – plus, it’s hard to dig through Popwatch to find it.
    2) Not only did I laugh a lot, I got really teary at the end when the voice-over about parents’ fears came on. It says quite a lot about the writing that these characters aren’t just caricatures – that they are fully developed and can get to the heart of the issue each week.
    I love that the children are not all snotty know-it-alls, like in most sitcomes – that they are talented actors with 3-D characters.
    _Modern Family_ is a gift!
