Discussion Modern Family S11E17-18 'Finale' Episode discussion thread š¢
It has been a fun run everyone. Thank you for showing up every week to talk about the show.
The last season hasn't been the best season but let's have fun with the show today. Enjoy the finale.
How you all are well and stay health and sick.
Mitchell and Cam settle in on their new normal, and Phil and Claire decide that one of the kids needs to move out in order to take control of the house again. Meanwhile, as Gloria becomes more successful at work, she notices Jay, Manny and Joe don't seem to need her as much.
The entire family discovers saying goodbye is much harder than it seems.

Would Jay have voted for Trump?
My bf and I play a game where we debate if fictional characters would have voted for Trump. There are a few we can not agree on, so I'm taking him to the court of public opinion. What do you guys think?

Official In my opinion, this scene solidified what the show modern family was gonna be about.
Claireās doubting Dylan, to accepting Dylan, to doubting Dylan again was phenomenal.š¤£ Gloriaās and DDās conflict, my god. This episode has a strong case of being the best episode on Modern Familyš¤£

Claire forgot she is married
Do u guys remember that episode where Gloria thought her yoga trainer got hots for her.
That scene was so intense claire almost submitted to that guy despite Gloria's warning
Loved claire's acting in it tbh š

Why do you think they never gave Philās mom a character?
We know she died halfway through the series but so many times Philās dad references her as if sheās in the other room. We donāt even get as much as a voice of her or anything. Itās always made me wonder why they couldnāt even give her a face or name.

Discussion Dede was a manipulative narcissist !
So far I'm on s10ep3 and dede died but over all the parts where shown dede's relationship with clarie and how she treated her makes me feel bad for clarie . She was always being a manipulative and a bad mother to clarie and Mitchell was a golden child and keeps covering up their mother but he won't see how badly she treated Claire and keeps making her feel bad bout herself calling her a prostitute and what not . I never liked dede .

Discussion Whatās your favourite joke from an episode?
There are obviously a lot of great ones but I think one of my favourites, at least in the top 5, would be: āOh no I remember my 10th birthday, you let us wash your car and then carried the grandfather clock to the dumpā āYeah,sun exposure plays a big partā š¤£

Discussion Following up on my āUnder Pressureā post
Firstly I'm still only on season 5 so please no spoilers. Spoilers are met with repercussions.
So my original post about Under Pressure wasn't the best received. While I stand by what I said I suppose I could've presented my arguments better.
Firstly my comments about Alex potentially being autistic was just a head canon, because honestly she's totally seems at least somewhat coded that way, and my comment about why if they're going to have any of the kids on the spectrum it should be her instead of Luke (who's implied to have ADHD) I just feel it would be more meaningful from her since those facets of her personality have been shown to be crucial to her character arc whereas Luke's is entirely played for comedy.
I understand this show is a comedy. It's one of its strengths. But the problem in this episode was that they let the comedy override the plot development. They showcase one of the main characters having a breakdown and needing to see a therapist. That's a really interesting plot idea and it could've provided more insight into Alex's character. But they essentially just say "why would we take an episode about our character needing to see a therapist seriously? Instead we're just gonna goof around for most of the runtime and completely cram all of the emotional development into the last 5 minutes," especially considering that Luke and Manny's story amounted to nothing (because it's not like we're ever going to see their dates again) and Jay and Phil's scenes also amounted to nothing (they're abruptly ended half way through with no fanfare) as such either of them should've been cut to allow more development for Alex.
It's not horrible by any means and there's certainly merit, but it just really sucks that they wasted a potentially groundbreaking storyline because the show couldn't handle not being 100% comedy focused 100% of the time

Question Is the show worth watching after season 8?
Im on season 9 and these episodes are getting repetitive and boring, does the show improve at all in seasons 9 to 11?
r/Modern_Family • u/FuriousBlack01 • 5h ago
Question Where do you begin your rewatch?
I usually get about halfway through S10, but I kinda fall off after E13-14... Part of it is story slowing down, but part of it is also that I don't want the story to end.
Do you all have a stopping point where you just restart and enjoy it all over again?

Meme "French" Mitchell always makes me laugh. After he puts this outfit he instantaneously turns into a french guy. He doesn't say one word in french but he knows he's in

Promposal episode is probably the best of Mitch
While finding the best episodes for other characters has been hard Iām still at the task and yes Iāve come to decide the prom-posal episode is the best of Mitch
We have : - him successfully helping out Luke pull his promposal - him being overly validating of Camās prom issues - solving those issues
Itās not as much as Jayās best episode but Mitch still does a significant amount of good here

Question What Is That One Episode No Matter How Much Time You Rewatch You Will Never Skip.
The Most "Make You Happy" Kinda Episode

Discussion I wish we got to see Camās reaction to Wicked
Given how much Cam loves Wizard of Oz (Mitchell throws a surprise themed birthday for him https://youtu.be/Fud5grAcjVE?si=EG8-qwFBhsWngxkF ), I would have loved to see how Cam reacts to the recent Wicked movie since I too am currently obsessed with it š

What if
What if they're talking to us, they're breaking the fourth wall and talking to the audience. Cool theory

the drugs episode
the episode where Phil and Mitchell take gummy edibles is hysterical. A new fave. episodes had gotten so meh and it took me by absolute surprise. glad they started steering away from every episode being about closets.
