New Favorite


Here's my favorite quote from last night's episode of Modern Family.

The husband says this to the camera after his wife gives him 5 coupons for hugs for an anniversary gift.


“Um, things I want...robot dog, night vision goggles, bug vacuum, GPS watch, speakers that look like rocks. I love my wife, but she sucks at giving gifts…I’m sorry for the pay channel language, oh…yogurt maker, I can’t NOT think of things I want.”


I forsee a long, happy relationship for me and this show. I have rewatched all the episodes so far and will be buying the dvds when they come out. Oh l'amour.


Quotable runner ups:


"You're not a Fandau."


"She threatened our child and that's what you're worried about, a segway?"


"She has a dark sense of humor, remember Halloween?

When she came as Sigfried and part of Roy.

It was too soon."


"When we go to Cabo, we have to get a hotel with a swim up bar because this running back and forth to the bathroom is a fool's game."


**Thoughts??**

Sorry about your mouse.

I love Modern Family. It is so funny. My favourite episode so far was the Costco one. When Dirk and I went shopping there last weekend, I looked around and said, "What is this place?" So funny.

I really like Modern Family. I think it is the first comedy show my husband and I have liked since Seinfeld. Have you watched "In the Middle" - pretty funny, too!

Linda said...

My sister keeps telling me about this show. I need to check it out, I'm just not a TV watcher.

Jenny said...

Have not see this show yet. Will have to check it out on Fancast! After a long day at work, I could use a good laugh.

Wendi said...

So loving that show too.

Nikki said...

I totally love this show too! That first quote made me laugh out loud when I saw it. SO FUNNY!

Natasha said...

Sarah said...

This show is hilarious! I'm loving it too, as well as "Cougar Town" right after it. Funny stuff!

Marla said...

The costco episode has great quotes..."What is this place?"

Jill! We always have the same taste in TV. I LOVE Modern Family. My friend Rob is totally the friend that would say, "Throw the baby in the ocean," so I made him watch last night's episode. I haven't been a fan of ABC in a while (well, I enjoy a "Castle" now and then, but that is cheesetastic) so it's exciting they are getting good comedies. You know me and my NBC! (Although "30 Rock" hasn't been that good this year...although I've had a bunch of friends be guest stars on it this season. The actor they almost hired for TGS with the crazy laugh is my college pal.) But more comedies on ABC = more sitcom jobs! YAY! Still reading your blog every day.

Seigfried and PART of Roy??? LMFAO I have to find this. And I have to find a way to convince my boyfriend we need to do that. lol

There are SO many quotables that I cannot list them all. I may have to do a Double Friday Funny.

crystal said...

So, I just left Michelle's blog & had to come right over & comment HERE on your comment THERE.

"Smotherhood, Smoverty & Smifehood are driving me to drink"--HA!

You're funny.

Lene said...

I love this show. That quote made me laugh out loud. I had to rewind it a few times before I could finish the rest of the show. Very clever writing!

wende said...

i was hooked from the very first show. LOVE IT. so many great one liners.

every time i watch it, i'm thinking, "oh HE's my favorite character, oh, maybe SHE's my favorite character." i seriously love them all equally.

my favorite so far was the dad and bike episode and the look on his wife's face with the slutty neighbor brings his back back. awesome.
