Modern Family

I wasn't sure if I would watch but decided to give it a try and found I liked it quite a lot. It's about a family that is truly modern, the father is played by Ed O'Neill and it's about him and his family. He's married to a Latinia with a young son, his son is gay and married and adopted a baby and he has a married daughter. The show is very funny and shows, at least to me, where there is love, a blended family can work quite well. It's a very funny show but it also has it's serious side, well worth watching.

all shapes, all sizes

While growing up in a pretty conservative household, I always knew one thing even pretty early on that no one family is the same. Circumstances arise that almost guarantee that the "Leave it to Beaver" nuclear family can be a minority in regards to how many families grow and form. Some may be the "ideal" nuclear family but some may have adopted children or even a family member that passed on. Maybe a child ran away or theres only one parent who loves the children … more

A look at three connected but very different American families and they're lives. Could have been so poor and cliched but takes some chances and makes for one of the best shows in years.

I can't believe Mr Morgan jammed up Manny at the airport. Almost interupted his shoe shine for chrissakes.

It's great to see healthy family living in American sitcom. Great to see the return of "Family Ties" & "The Nanny"!
