Re: Modern Family -- "Virgin Territory" -- 2/22/12
If it was anything like some of the universal remotes I've bought over the years, he just ended up going back to the originals!
I thought it was a good episode. Not as laugh out loud funny as others, but I liked it. Luke is gold, just like his Dad. ("Are you crazy?" "You tell me...")
I totally bought Cam trying to find the tupperware just for the principle of the situation. He was tired of being mocked about something he knew he was right about. It's a sitcom, and the actions taken for something like this are exaggerated for comedy. I loved seeing him on the floor amongst a huge mess, foot through a broken drawer, saying "I believe this came with a lid."
Also really liked Phil and Alex: "Can I have this doll?" "You can have all the dolls you want." "This one's $200." "Or just this one."

This was my least favorite episode of the series. I didn't even bother watching the end. Mitchell does nothing but annoy me. He doesn't talk, he whines. I find no humor in Phil learing about his daughters' loss of virginity. In fact it even bothered me she banged a moron like Dylan.
Sucked.
Sucked.

Wow, polarizing episode. I was laughing hard several times, one of the funniest episodes in recent memory. I loved when Claire got out of her car and was bowled over by Gloria's obnoxious greeting as the camera pans over.

Slightly off topic but not really (didn't know where else to put it): Sofia Vergara's first TV commercial when she was 17.

This whole episode made me feel bad.
I felt bad for Jay that a big accomplishment like a hole-in-one was ruined for him, and his reputation destroyed.
I felt bad for Phil that he found out his daughter no longer has a cherry.
I felt bad for Claire that Cam the fatass wrecked her kitchen. Standing in a drawer?
I felt bad for Manny that his cool points for driving by the lemonade chick were lost when he drove backwards terrified.
I felt bad for Gloria that my penis wasn't inside her.

The Manny/Luke car scene gave me a good laugh.
Luke: We've got a full tank of gas and she's right down the block. Now buckle up.
Manny: Are you crazy?!
Luke: You tell me! (with crazy eyes)
I don't think the Haley virgin stuff was meant to come off as funny - so I wasn't bothered that it didn't make me laugh. It was sad and sweet at the same time. Haley saying that she had a cool dad was touching.

The one thing that sort of stuck with me was that Cam went to all this trouble for Tupperware. Really? I could understand if it was some unique serving tray or fancy kitchen something, but he went to all this trouble for a plain Tupperware container that could easily be replaced at any grocery store.
That scene was awesome.
