Modern Family

We started watching it this weekend and are 5 or 6 episodes into season 1.  I really like it, but I'm having a hard time liking any of the Dunphy family, especially the dad and the oldest daughter.  I think Manny is my favorite character.

I just watched the episode where Claire and Phil race each other on the kids' first day of school and was so annoyed that she let him win.

  • If it helps, you can insert Groomz and Jimmy in there. Groomz is obviously Cam and Jimmy is Marshall.

  • The oldest daughter is probably my least favorite, but she has her moments.  Her purpose, in my eyes, is to provide excellent fodder for the middle child to mocH.
    I disagree with your lack of like for Phil though.  He's hilarious.

  • Uh, Phil is the best.  You are smoking rocks.  Their oldest daughter isn't the most lovable, but she seems like a normal teenager.  I wasn't very cool in high school, but I got a similar attitude with my parents and was probably not the most pleasant person to be around.

  • The oldest has her moments, like the ep a few weeks ago with the no technology challenge.

    I think Gloria is my favorite.

  • Exackery.  There are times when she reveals she's not as dumb as she acts.  I liked when she was helping Alex befriend the popular girl.  "I invented Mackenzie."

    Honestly, there isn't a single one of them that I don't like.

  • The oldest will grow on you.

    Phil is awesome.

  • All we are saying, is give Phil a chance.

  • I love them all. I especially loved Gloria when she was trying to speak without her accent.

  • I really love this show, and I love pretty much all the characters.  I even love the oldest daughter.  Phil is awesome.  LOVE Mitchell and Cam - some of the things they say are so funny.  I remember one episode where Cam said something like "Mitchell works and I stay at home to raise Lily.  We're a very traditional family"  and Mitchell followed up by saying "that's what the disabled lesbian cleric who blessed Lily's room said".

    Yes! And the one where she and the mom were sick and watching soap operas and she thought the parents were divorcing.

  • Phil took the longest for me to warm up to.  I immediatly liked his wife, but I just like Julie Bowen. 

    My least favorite character is moo.  She is dead to me.

  • This reminds me of a question I have about Cam and Mitchell on MF.

    Which one is the woman?

    (ETA: did I kill this post by doing the joke wrong?)
