The Graduates

[studioAT · 10/10 · 30 October 2021]

A very strong episode to round off what has on the whole been a decent S8. Yes, there are more average episodes creeping in, but 'Modern Family' does try and tell three stories an episode, they can't all be winners.

I thought this one was great though, very funny, and full of heart. Excellent stuff.

I guess I should never say about any particular episode

.... THIS is the worst modern family episode... bc that would mean i remember all modern family episodes, and of all of them, THIS particular one is the worst one...and I don't know which one was actually the worst.

So...I'll have to say this is ONE OF the worst modern family.

I am tempted to give this a 1...even though i prefer to save those.

Let's see... luke buying a rolls royce. Stupid.

Claire driving rolls royce for some reason. What the hell is she doing???

You call that a tiger...then comes out of a ball pit??? Am i missing something?

I am watching the tv rerun, not dvd version...maybe a scene was edited out.

Joe...the more lines he has, the more likely a lower rating.

He truly is terrible.

The idea of getting phil to cry it out is a good idea.

Execution. Awful.

And manny being as insufferable as ever. It is partly the actor's fault... but the lines they feed him...my god. I wonder if there were any blow ups on set...where the actors go...this is absolutely terrible. I'm not saying this.

You're ruining this character...and I'm going to get all the blame for it.

So...what's her name who plays Claire...at what point did she start being a bad actress? I remember her younger days as Carol Vessey on Ed...and she was fine in Happy Gilmore...and then she started being Claire... and it seems that every season, she got worse and worse.

I guess whatever she was doing, was being rewarded with awards and money... and so she just kept turning up whatever the hell it was.

Her voice seems to get worse...and pay attention to her hand motions.

It isn't every episode or all the time...but she does some weird stuff with her hands.

Is there any positive of this episode???

I think Frank's wedding was one of the hardest to actually watch bc of Pameron. So...my 1 2 3 is a little muddled. There are worse modern family episodes, that are hard to watch, but not quite like any one with pameron. Bad acting, nonsense plots, bad execution are one thing....and those are really hard to watch...but they are watchable. So...given that there has been worse acting...and worse plot points...and truly unwatchable episodes, i won't give this a 1. I'll give this a generous 3...and if I'm ever tempted to watch it again, i'll know to check IMDB and see why or why not.

I'll have to look back and see how many episodes of season 8 are actually watchable...and only watch those. Because the rest of this really just ruins the show. I think I've tried keeping the fun and good scenes in my head, and tried to completely push out all the other unwatchable terribleness.
