I'm pissed we didn't get a chance to see Gloria doing yoga.

I thought the episode was pretty weak and unfunny.

I don't know why, but I'm really liking Luke's ongoing hate of Lily.

I enjoyed the episode overall but it felt rather disjointed.

Yeah, I love to see stuff carried over from prior episodes...and his hatred of Lily was actually some of best stuff in last night's show...the stuff about Haley not being a virgin anymore wasn't funny at all - you'd think they could write much better material around that plot point.

So I wasn't the only one yelling at the screen? 'Don't mess this up for us Claire! Stop being so selfish!'

Same here. I really liked the call back to Gloria being great with a gun.

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.

I agree. That was dumb. I liked everything else. The Luke hate for Lily still has me laughing.

I think you missed the entire point - he was trying to prove that he wasn't the forgetful one.

I thought it was a great episode....even the virgin storyline. Played perfectly into Phil's personality.

Manny pimping by the girl the first time was funny, then when he had to do it in reverse and looked dishelved was piss in your pants funny!

I liked Claire's explanation to Gloria or why she needed stress relief alone - "I live with four teenagers, you live with two adults".

No, I didn't miss it. I still counter with: Who cares? It's just Tupperware.

Yes, you did miss the point. Cam didn't care about the Tupperware. He only wanted to prove he was right and Claire was wrong. And that he wasn't "the forgetful one".

As much as all of the family members would love to prove Claire wrong about things, I do not find it realistic that of all things Cam would choose to fixate on to use to prove her wrong would be a piece of Tupperware, something that is easily replaceable and that families and friends are known to exchange with each other quite a bit. It just didn't ring true to me at all, even if it was to prove Claire wrong.

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.

I dunno but Claire's song to Cam reminded me of Phil's song to Claire when explaining how to use the house alarm.

Re: Modern Family -- "Virgin Territory" -- 2/22/12

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.
