Just because there isn't a thread yet. This has to be one of the best shows on TV right now. Smart, hilarious, witty, heartfelt. I love it.

Posted: 3/11/10 at 8:45pmThis should have won a Golden Globe over GLEE. Hopefully, it'll take the Emmy...
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 3/11/10 at 9:25pmI know its not a comparison.... but seeing as all my shows have declined in the past few months in quality (Office, How I Met Your Mother--which I still love out of dedication and obligation), Modern Family may be my favorite show on tv currently. I think it will only get better as time goes on as well.

As much as I like Glee, there's no question to me Modern Family is the best comedy on TV. It is as consistently funny (if not more so) as Arrested Development (I know, I know, heresy).

LOVE this show. I laugh hysterically every show. I was crying when Manny wanted to give up fencing, but his parents encouraged him to stick with it. Then when he does and the girl's nurse starts talking to his parents... so good!

Posted: 3/12/10 at 12:08amThis show makes me laugh each and every week. I still think the "Innocente" episode is my favorite.

Posted: 3/12/10 at 6:51amModern Family has the best, most consistently brilliant writing that's been on TV in years. An ensemble show in the truest sense of the word, whose greatest strength may be that it has no weakness. My favorite episodes would be the pilot and Fizbo.

The stars are falling from the sky
And you’re the reason why
The moon is shining on your face
And I finally found its place
Cuz maybe baby
I just wanna do you, do you
Do you wanna do me, do me?
Underneath the moonlight, moonlight
tonight
And now we’re hiding in my car
I let you see my scars
Escape the dark for just one night
Your heart makes me explode with light
Baby maybe
Maybe I will steal you, steal you
Just so I can feel u, feel u
Maybe that will heal you, heal you
On the inside
Underneath the willow tree
Wearing nothing else but me

Posted: 3/14/10 at 12:19amLove it, one of my favorite shows! Flyza Minnelli will forever be a classic. I can't even pick a favorite. I do love the ending of the episode from the first day of school, where Claire makes a sweet little speech about Parenthood. Not going to lie, I teared up. One of the best shows on tv :]
