Family Fun Time


Welcome back citizens of television! Now as you know my main target reviews are about sci-fi or devious girls right? Well let’s try something new! Let’s invite laughter, life, joy, and realistic value of life into the picture. This TV show is one of the funniest shows in America, have you ever heard of “Modern Family”? This comedy explores the regular flaws of a family!
 
The TV show “Modern Family” is “hi-larious!” It explores common issues of a growing family and how people may handle them or want to handle them in this modern century. The main families of the show are Jay Pritchett ( an elderly man and also the patriarch of the family show),who marries the young, beautiful, latina Gloria, and becomes the stepfather to Manny. Now that being said we know the age difference in marriage gets people talking, and the producers find the usual complaints families would say, and “inject” them into the fictional characters to make it more amusing. There is also the cultural clash between Gloria and Jay because of Gloria’s Colombian heritage. Most of the time he deals with Gloria’s attitude and Manny’s sensitivity and odd overly mature ways. Jay Pritchett also has two kids, Claire and Mitchell, who are grown and have their own families. Jay also struggles with expressing his love to his kids causing pretty hilarious awkward moments.
 
Claire Dunphy, wife of Phil, and mother of three children: Haley, Alex, and Luke is your typical, average mother; usually stressed all the time, corny, and trying her hardest to prevent her kids from becoming wild like she was in her teenage years. Her husband Phil considers her to be very naggy, strict, and overly excited to certain issues. Claire considers Phil as the “child” she married. There is constant verbal arguing during the show about disagreements regular married couples have.The two raise their children to take on life, trying to shield them from possessing any type of bad qualities or characteristics. But as we know all children are flawed: Hayley, the teenager and the oldest which the parents have to deal with her hormonal issues; Alex with her manipulative nature; and Luke with his mindless lack of sense. Fun and interesting family, huh?
Then there is Mitchell Pritchett, who also happens to be gay. His family embraces the fact that he is gay and the show exaggerates the gay couple, which I think is like one of the best qualities of the show. Mitchell Pritchett and his husband Cameron adopt a baby girl from China. And being the first timers that they are, they strive for the goal to raise their daughter to be the best she can be, driving over bumps in the road on their way there.

            The fictional characters talk directly to the camera going into detail about emotions of rage, annoyance, joy, or confusion after an action is made or something is said, and personally I think it makes it all the more better. The show is a mockumentary on ideal families and the difficulties and pleasures we experience. It has sibling rivalries, teenage drama, parental issues,parent-child conflicts, and family changes. It’s a must see if you’re looking for joy, life, laughter, or something to watch with the family. It teaches you life lessons and the important value of family. Overall the show opens you up to normal family issues and mocks them makes them sound ridiculous, puts tickles in your throat , and stirs laughter. It’s a great show! Anyone looking for a laugh should definitely, 100% watch this! You can watch it on abc family at 9/8 central on Wednesday.

Till our next encounter citizens!
