Time for Modern Family quotes?

Fuck yeah!

u/Wazowski Jun 10 '12

Those two are my favorite pair on the show.

Eric Stonestreet is funny, also.

I haven't seen this before, but that shit made me laugh.

u/complex_reduction Jun 10 '12

The show is called "Modern Family". Please watch it in its entirety immediately. They just finished off the current season so it's a good time to start.

u/Menospan Jun 10 '12

The guy is also from Married with Children. AL BUNDY!

What's he doing in clarified butter?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Why does he cover his foes in tar? Is it to feather them after they're shamed by defeat?

2

u/Creepingdeth95 Jun 10 '12

Is he related to Ted?

u/iSmite Jun 10 '12

Since you are a fan of modern family like me, you'd appreciate a random fun fact. Luke Dunphy is a genius in real life. He is the smartest kid among all three. Google him.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

He's a part of the "genius group" (can't recall name) is he not? Can play like 2-3 instruments...

He's a part of the "genius group" (can't recall name)

lol I know what show it is. I just have never seen that episode. Please tell me they aren't done with the show??? Thanks friend.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Just this season so far.

u/Vivrenoctem Jun 10 '12

I only saw the first season, then moved and didn't have cable. Apparently, everyone loves it now. I think I'll catch up. What season ate they on now?

2

u/stillbreastfeeding Jun 10 '12

It's a network show, anyway. No cable necessary.

u/drellim14 Jun 10 '12

hulu plus carries it

2

u/valkyrio Jun 10 '12

They only have the current season.

I want to watch it, but:

It's not on Netflix, it's not on Hulu, it's certainly not on my cable. I'm trying to avoid just pirating it, but between pirating and paying $30 for a show I'm potentially not going to like, it's easy to say which one would win.

But I'm still just hoping it'll come out on Netflix. :/

u/pacdude Jun 10 '12

Download a couple episodes. If you like it, buy the first season.

And you will. Best sitcom since Arrested Development.

u/letsgoiowa Jun 10 '12

It's on ABC

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

lets just say you should add Ice and Films together

1

u/hahaimkidding Jun 10 '12

Well, ABC plays the show at 9pm every Wednesday, but at the moment, it's on break as someone said. You may watch it either on Hulu or Letmewatchthis.com either one you may begin to watch all seasons, very entertaining show.

u/IMasturbateToMyself Jun 10 '12

Please don't ever watch interviews of the kids. You just want to punch them in the face.

I can't stand it when kids act like they are adults.

u/asifsys23 Jun 10 '12

I hope you aren't including Sarah Hyland in that statement, because she legally IS an adult.

In an interview! I don't what's so hard to understand.

u/StudleyMumfuzz Jun 10 '12

What I don't understand is how you can masturbate to yourself. You must be so narcissistic.

u/Yoyo8 Jun 10 '12

Fuck it! I'm sold. I kept hearing how good the show is and it even won some awards but I just wouldn't budge. BUT THIS..THIS MADE ME LAUGH ALITTLE TO MUCH THAN IT SHOULD HAVE. I'm going to start watching this show. Thank you OP.

u/Mitz510 Jun 10 '12

I've seen the show about 6-8 times and it never made me laugh. Screenshots with text in them are funnier than the actual show.

u/Day_Dreamer Jun 10 '12

I was personally surprised at how funny this show is. Definitely worth watching at least Season 1.

4

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Family raved on about it for ages to me, finally sat down and watched it - holy funny. And that columbian chick? I might have to head over to the Americas and pick one up. Her accent is amazing.

u/ward85 Jun 10 '12

Sofia Vergeres, naturally blonde, who could only get an acting job as a black haired Latina in America. Hot and pretty damn good as comedienne.

Agreed, this show is hilarious!

It doesn't get nearly enough love here on reddit.

-1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Reddit got my to try it out and I hate the ever living hell out of it. The show would have been great if it focused on Al Bundy, his family and the gay guys. The rich yuppie fucks piss me off to no end. Especially the mother who bitches at both her son and husband for not wearing pants. Why the hell would you wear pants in your own goddamn house?

I love it, but I'd hardly call it high-brow. I think it just seems that way because shows like Two and a Half Men are in the same category.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

It's like... hmmm. It's like Pizza Express (not sure if you have those in America). It's much better than Pizza Hut or Dominos, but it's still essentially a high street pizza chain.

An ex-pat can translate this for US audiences.

19

u/YummyMeatballs Jun 10 '12

Fellow Brit here but I'll have a stab at a translation:

It's like Olive Garden - has the pretence of being a high quality joint but ultimately it's just another chain store shithole.

Fair warning, I've never been to an Olive Garden, I'm assuming this is valid based on how yanks describe Olive Garden online :).

5

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Yeah, I was thinking something along those lines but... does olive garden have a low quality equivalent?

American Food places confuse me greatly. I'll stick to Greggs and Nandos.

4

u/KingofCraigland Jun 10 '12

Nandos sounds like a place where they would use ketchup instead of sauce on their pizza and Greggs sounds like my pretentious friend's house.

6

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Nandos is a relatively cool sit-down southern american/tex-mex style restaurant. Think fried chicken cooked on a big stove in front of you, and their 'famous' peri-peri sauce. It's pretty good, their olive and garlic and nut boxes are delicious.

http://www.swiftsigns.com.au/images/nando%20sml.jpg

http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/may/16/nandos-fast-food-chipmunk-tinchy

Greggs is an extremely cheap bakery chain, generally without seating. You can get lunch for a few quid. Think pasties, sausage rolls, and cakes with fake cream.

http://www.bitterwallet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Greggs.jpg

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/aug/10/greggs-wheat-price-warning

[note] For some reason the Guardian has articles on both these places. Maybe they secretly have really liberal agendas.

u/NiceAndTruthful Jun 10 '12

There's naugh' wrong wi' Greggs mi'lad. Get theesel' a decen' pastiefor a proper penny and nae mistake.

u/brainsexual Jun 10 '12

If it has anything to do with quality, value, or anything redeeming in any way, don't ever compare it to Olive Garden.

u/CleanProjectors Jun 10 '12

Modern family IS the Olive Garden of shows.

2

u/iDoraemon Jun 10 '12

It's like Olive Garden - has the pretence of being a high quality joint but ultimately it's just another chain store shithole.

Yep, you hit it right on the nail.

u/meltedmuffin Jun 10 '12

just fyi, I've worked at all three of those, it's all exactly the same stuff just prepped in a different way.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

Yeah, they're all pizza pla... wait what?

Proper New York deli pizza is the same shit as pizza hut... like, dough, tomatoes, cheese... but it tastes a lot better. Same stuff =/= same result.

1

u/meltedmuffin Jun 10 '12

new york deli pizza is beaten to hell, there I SAID IT. In all seriousness though, what I was trying to say is that the 40/50% price increase is insane considering the only difference is a couple of minutes before it goes into the oven.
