If the Office and Arrested Development had a love child ==> This would be it!



Creators: Steven Levitan, Christopher Lloyd
Cast: Sofía Vergara, Julie Bowen, Ty Burrell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Ed O'Neill






Even though this is technically not a movie, this show deserves a mention.
Calling all Arrested Development fans! For those of you who are still in awe after the dreaded cancellation of AD....There is a Cure that is Modern Family!


ABC's Modern Family premiered on 23rd September 2009. The plot focuses on a ''satirical look at three different families and the trials they face in each of their own uniquely comedic ways''.
The style of the show is very similar to that of Arrested Development, The Office, and Parks and Recreation. 


This is definitely my favorite new TV show this season. One of the few shows that provides good entertainment for the whole family. 
The characters are what really makes this show good. The ensemble is lovable, fresh, and relatable (I'm sure we all have come across this during awkward family gatherings).
The family members consists of a cliched dysfunctional family; A wealthy old man with an attractive young wife, the cool young american couple, and the gay couple. It also doesnt hurt that the gorgeous Julie Bowen and Sofia Vergara are in it; Eye Candy.  Phil's character is probably my favorite (The 'Cool' dad who tries too hard), Ty Burrell is the perfect person to play this role; definitely Emmy Worthy!
The dialogues are really witty, fresh, sarcastic, and are very well written. This show is kind of cheesy but in a good way; There is always a benign ending with the whole family coming together.
Is this show a replacement for Arrested Development?...No!  but its the closest thing there is!


I would definitely recommend giving this show a chance. I'm addicted to this show! You should be too!
