Great cast, perfect timing, story lines that most can relate to and they honestly LOVE each other as crazy extended family members. A nice 1/2 hour of chuckles lovingly with (I'm not saying AT) everyone's expense.

Originally Posted By utahjosh Middle & Modern Family are the two best sitcoms on TV right now. I also try not to miss The Office, Parks & Rec, and Community. But the Middle and Modern Family are consistently more funny. 30 Rock used to be on that list, but it's been no good this season.

Originally Posted By Labuda Hmmmm, ok, wahoo. Since you say it's improved, I'll give it a shot. I only watched the first season and figured when it sucked after the first 6 episodes that it was a waste of my time that wasn't going to get better. I'll try to remember to have it record tonight, or just check it out online.

Originally Posted By utahjosh Also - I tried Big Bang Theory for the first time last night. The tall guy just annoyed me so bad. His character is so forced and over the top I couldn't take it - seemed like a Disney Channel original series character. The rest of the cast seemed okay, and I like the concept of the 4 comic-book geeks and hot girlfriend.
Originally Posted By DAR I might have to give Parks and Rec a try over the summer I just couldn't get into it. Modern Family has been firing on all cynlinders this season and even a "bad" episode still brings out a smile or chuckle from me. And the Middle has really improved from the first episode(whispers in shirt first episode) As far as the Office is concern I am so disappointed in it this year. There have been some painfully bad episodes this year. It used to be must see for me and now it's I'll watch when I get around to it.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 >>>And the Middle has really improved from the first episode(whispers in shirt first episode)<<< LOL! We like The Middle too Our oldest DD used to do that repeat the end of the sentence thing when she was young, but she just mouthed it. I'd forgotten about it until I saw Brick The office is losing steam for me but DD and her boyfriend still think of it as a must see. We also like Parks and Rec. we don't watch every episode but plan to catch up with re runs.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo We don't get all of those shows, but I must say that Modern Family is perhaps my fav show of the millenium so far (even rivaling my beloved Scrubs). But I also adore Big Bang Theory (even if my mom says it is my friends and me during my college years). And 30 Rock is good too. But i must confess to trying to get home in time to specifically watch Modern Family, which has not happened to me since Star Trek Next Generation was on.
