What's your favorite episdoe of Modern Family?

I love the episode where Phil successfully scares Claire by planning months in advance by pretending to be a creepy old lady that lives nearby. The Psycho reference was great. I also love the episode where Phil is the “godfather.”

That one where Phil becomes a mafia boss and has Luke fix every problem absolutely killed me. It was the best episode

For me the best modern family episode is the one which takes place entirely on computer screen.

Early Modern Family is a masterpiece. Phil is easily one of the best sitcom dads of all time.

I am almost convinced the scene where Lily, Mitch, Cam, and Gloria go to the Vietnamese restaurant is the funniest scene in the whole series

Mitch and Cam at the airport on sleeping pills is the best scene.

'Connection Lost' from Modern Family season 6 probably has some of the best writing in the history of television

I did really like the episode where Phil had the open house on Halloween and his family made him think it was haunted. They did a good job and proved that Claire is very scary!

Just wanted to acknowledge that "Abed's uncontrollable Christmas" is streets ahead in terms of Holidays specials

The Las Vegas episode is my favorite. There are so many great guest appearances and the all the coincidences tying together at the end was expertly written.

Just to clarify, you didn't just claim that Abed's uncontrollable Christmas is boring, did you?

1:50 in Community's defense, that episode is canonical. We're just seeing the world through Abed's intense delusion.

Grew up watching Modern Family, and it's weird how now nobody talks, or sometimes doesn’t even remembers the show. Despite it being ABC's most successful program in the 2010s, and winning 22 Emmys, more than the sopranos and Breaking Bad. This show is extremely underspoken.

The Spider man on top of the toilet shot is fantastic physical comedy

I loved the episode where they almost had a car accident. It ties up every storyline masterfully and it's hilarious. I'm surprised no one talks about that episode ever. And I loved the episode of Manny's birthday too. And the one where they have a dinner reservation and they end up being late and eating hotdogs. Damn, I love a lot of episodes.

“Abed’s uncontrollable Christmas” is amazing

One of my favorites will always be the one where Phil and Mitch are in cahoots because Claire and Cam want to buy a house to renovate

It's hard to take you seriously when you call the christmas episode of Community boring and nonsensical...

Gloria popping up with that American accent gets me everytime.

“More offensive than entertaining” I feel like that describes Glee as a whole perfectly.

personally i think the episode where cam n mitch were trying to find perfect godparents for lily was the funniest i laughed so hard

Modern family is the closest to perfect a sit con can come to imo

I loved the Hawaii episode, its always so easy to rewatch and im a softie for sweet family moments

The funniest episode of Modern Family to me is the April Fools one The one that Gloria invited her "ex-boyfriend" to come by the house and he looks like Manny and in the end it was just a joke... THE BUILD UP TO THE REVELATION IM LAUGHING JUST REMEMBERING 🤣

every time Phil is on screen i would watch what a legend

Been binge watching modern family for a couple weeks. Never seen it before. This video came at the perfect time for me haha

Modern Family - The best sitcom of the 2010s

This episode also has one of my favorite deliveries from Luke: I’m your mother now! It just comes out of nowhere and it shows that Luke was ok with his character

You did not just say the words boring and nonsensical while displaying images of Abed's Christmas episode of Community?

In June of this year, I decided to watch the family recommended to me by KZfaq shorts. There are 250 episodes of modern family with 1 special with on and off binge, today I completed this craziness of Modern Family. And today you uploaded this video. If there's faith, destiny or coincidence in this world, This is the best possible case I have to show for it. Thank You.

I love how Modern Family has such a good balance of a normal episode and a holiday episode. New Girl is one of the sitcoms where the balance is in the opposite direction than usual where the plot actually overruns the holiday. The ones that come to mind are the thanksgiving episodes, cause they always drag in the love interests that won’t last

This is my favorite episode. Cam's delivery of his childhood trauma is so funny

The disrespect to one of the best Community episodes, and one of the best holiday specials in general is astounding.

“Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas” is the opposite of boring. It’s a perfect Holiday episode that connects with the rest of the show and is super character driven. You really should have used a different clip than the one from that Community episode to make that point.

This show is so good. It’s weird how no one ever really talks about it though.

I’m happy to see that most of the top comments are here to defend “Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas” form Community. Christmas is baked into the blood of that special, it’s very character-driven, and it’s one of the best holiday episodes of any show I’ve ever seen.

The first three seasons of this show were brilliant, great analysis as always

Gloria’s “🎶Ho Ho Ho Ho🎶” had me laughing so hard the first time I watched this episode and is one of those scenes I just can’t forget

"some of the most boring and nonsensical episodes on TV" he says over Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas. How dare you.

Please never stop making these. You’ve got a sub for life. I absolutely relish behind the scenes/how it’s made/why it works - type of breakdowns, and this channel is by far and stands alone as if not THE best, then one of the best.

I love Phil's moments when disciplining Healey Because they are so on point

I’m proud of the Community community for not accepting this “Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas” slander

my favorite episodes are connection lost (s6) halloween (s2) las vegas (s5)

So, you think Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas is boring and not Streets Ahead as far as storytelling goes? Okay

I thought season 4’s Halloween episode was pretty good. Claire is tortured by the fact that she can’t go all out with the haunted house, Jay has a nice arc about accepting aging, and Mitchell and Cam have a good parenting arc

I i have watched this episode so many times that i lost count. and yet i never realized this "sub plot" about each character's fears. excellent video! congratulations.

"This whole thing is a colossal fog cue"

I think the show dipped in quality significantly in the later seasons, but the early seasons, specifically the first five, are absolutely fantastic.

Loved seeing the Superstore clips in there. Would love to see some of your analysis on the show that showcases a true blue collar workplace and characters who are actively dealing with the challenges of the minimum wage workforce.

My favorite episode is where Phil becomes Godfather...... Litereally

I’m sorry but did they just use Community as an example of a show that doesn’t use the holiday episodes to further character growth? It’s literally one of the only shows I’ve watched that actually looks deeper into the characters on the holiday episodes.

I love these modern family episodes. I feel like its an underrated show

I love the “you are out of orange juice” episode and the married the a Pritchett club with Cam, Gloria and Phil

My favourite one was where haily goes for college and Phill present his Phil's osphy book ..those quotes in the book are funniest

Such a great show. Has so much to offer and is so hilarious that it is one of my go to shows. But if I had to pick one episode (which is very difficult!) it would be "Connection Lost", the episode that takes place entirely on the computer screen. That episode is enough to make someone interested in watching the show. Hilarious with jokes firing on all cylinders and emotional/dramatic as well.

Love Modern Family. Especially this one as an avid Halloween fan.

Mitchell walking into the bathroom while opening his shirt go reveal the spiderman symbol is just legendary😂

1:46 no way you put up the community episode. LITERALLY THE BEST HOLIDAY EPISODE EVERRR

Very deep analysis of Fear and how it affects us 👍🏻 Fantastic job

I miss this show more than I miss any other.

aww that was lovely. thanks, you have a great voice.

Each Halloween episode helped different characters to grow out of an insecurity of theirs, and strengthened their overall bonds (ironic, considering it's a 'horror' holiday). Especially the episode where Claire and Mitch lose Dede, all of them are forced to face and resolve their issues through the grief...

Your script is so well written ❤

You did not just imply that Abed’s uncontrollable Christmas is boring, nonsensical, and unconnected to the overall plot, because, if you did, you would just be plain wrong

The anniversary episodes were some of my favorites 😂 Man im’a go rewatch this show

and quinta brunson took a page right out of this book for abbott elementary. every episode feels like this, which is why the show is so good

Great Video!

I loved hearing you talk about Glee! any plans to make more videos talking about it?

i know this video is a year and a half old, but you've convinced me - i'm gonna try watching modern family next :)

Hey, I like how your channel dissects shows, episodes, movies and methods around all forms are cinema, animation and other forms or expressions and messages. Ever think of doing an episode on Amon from Legend of Korra?

I love how most of the top comments are about Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas. And I agree. How _dare_ you say it was boring!

Nice explanation of a great episode!❤

holy shit I used to LOVE this episode growing up! definitely the most memorable

The Christmas pterodactyls are coming for you...

Just watched this episode the other day and it inspired me to do a Halloween party

You know you messed up when over half the comments are attacking you for insulting an episode of TV that's not even from Modern Family. Community is a masterpiece.

i cried at the hawaii episode. i have no clue why- it’s my favourite

1:46 I have never gasped this loud.. EVER..

great video!

I waited till I get to this episode then watched this and it really sums why it's a great episode. I just started watching Modern Family last week and I'm loving it.

5:13 that's a character of clair so perfect

The one episode that for some reason just makes me laugh so hard, is the episode where Mitch and Cam have this friend just getting out of a bad breakup (played by Mathew Broderick) and he just gets off the phone with them about “playing the field” again, and after the phone call of course he runs into Phil while shopping, he doesn’t know who he is in relations to the family, so he starts talking to him and there’s this whole double entendre going on where he thinks Phil is inviting him over for like a hook up or date, but really Phil just wants to have a “guys night” and everyone else cancelled on him… just the way Phil talks and the way Mathew Broderick thinks that he’s on a date makes that whole episode extremely hilarious to me. I think those are always the best episodes, when someone is confused and thinks something completely different is going on than what is presented as reality.

The one where Phil’s mom died had be absolutely crying laughing 😂😂😂

The way I clicked on this video wondering if it was going to be that one Halloween episode and then it was that one Halloween episode

My comfort show ❤

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Saying boring while showing the stop-motion episode of Community was a bad editing choice.

This an absolutely great episode - gave me a lot to think about

i like how most of the top comments are about communities' Christmas episode with abed lmao. I think you might need to apologize to that fanbase hahah

So, is the show worth my time? Edit: I’ve been enjoying The middle; Perfect atmosphere for me.

I'm living that the top comments are about Community on this Modern Family video 😂 I've seen every episode of both shows and I would certainly rank Abed's Christmas episode higher than this Halloween episode. But, hey, that's just my opinion, my tv opinion.

This show in general (not only this episode) is genius.

My favourite is when Dylan sings the first song.

All Modern Family episodes are perfect!

The perfect better call Saul episode “ plan and execution” needs to be done one day

The absolute funniest part of the episode that is always overlooked is when the first set of trick or treaters comes through the house and they are disappointed....Which leads to the totally, out of nowhere, nut shot occurs. One of the kids hits Phil in the balls as he is leaving the house. It is so unexpected and they don't even show it on screen, but Phil's reaction and his cry of "WWWHHHYYYY" is simply the best.

One of my fav episodes are the Vegas one and the one in Alex’s new apartment

I was so sure that this was gonna be about the episode where phill scares Claire by pretending to be that old lady in the haunted house! Surprised that it isn’t

The episode which is told through a computer screen ("Connection Lost", S6 E16) is also near perfect.

I miss Modern Family.
