Modern Family (ABC)

And Modern Family has jumped the shark...

 

In what way, exactly?

 

The pregnancy.

 

I laughed my ass off at this moment:

Luke: Dylan, close the door
(Dylan closes closet door)
Luke: No, the other door

 

I did think it was a very good episode until the twist at the end...

It was just a completely unnecessary thing to do.

 

The only thing we can hope for is that the cliffhanger ends up being a false positive

 

I hope so...

 

Thought it was the weakest episode in a long time. The whole telenovela adoption angle was too contrived, and Jay dancing in Lily's recital? Weird. Had some good moments, but was really disappointed overall. Don't like the pregnancy idea either.

 

They've had worse episodes this season.

 

"Are you doing sex?" was a golden line, though.

 

The whole premise for the show is it's a non-traditional family. We get it. The character development and storylines already in place have made it enjoyable thus far. Why hit us over the head with yet another example of how the family is not traditional? We get that part. Seems like the easy way out for writers who may have run out of material, imo
