Al Bundy’s back!!
As a grandfather what?! Ed O’Neil is the most recognizable cast member in this comedy TV series. The series is done in a mockumentary style with the likes of series like Reno 911 and Parks and Recreation. You guys probably don’t watch those two shows. But anyways, Smokey was surprised by how good Modern Family is.
The show is centered around Jay (Ed O’Neil or the Al Bundy guy) and his family. This includes the families of his daughter and gay son. Jay is married to his second wife who is a young Colombian woman with a pre-teenage son who is a genius. Jay’s daughter is married with 3 kids and Jay’s son is living with his gay lover and adopted a Vietnamese baby girl. It is a very diverse family and the writers are very creative in making hilarious interactions and scenes with all the characters. When you first heard about Modern Family from a commercial, you will probably not be interested in watching it. Neither was Smokey! But when Smokey finally watched it after a recommendation from Chris Hei, Smokey laughed out lout many times. So yes please watch it!
It’s pretty hard to talk about a TV show without actually having you watch it. So Smokey is going to outline the Family Tree for you by KSing this picture from ABC.com:
yeee
The kid Manny is probably one of Smokey’s favorite character in the show. Manny is the pre-teenage kid who talks like an adult. And no, Smokey is not a pedo-bear.
Manny to the rescue
Poor Manny, poor turtle and good old Al Bundy.
Lily the adopted baby meets the family!
