Up to now, we've been concentrating on two things heading into this week's episode "Pay the Piper." Obviously, the big headline-grabber for this week's episode of The CW's The Flash is the return of Godspeed and learning more about the mystery surrounding him, her, and/or them. In addition, we're going to learn more "Crisis" backstory […]

After eleven years of growing up in each other's homes, ABC's Modern Family comes to an end. Eleven seasons of countless emotional memories. Even as "Finale" had viewers tearing up, we were given an ending that both brought closure as well as open new chapters to their stories. It really felt like a family, you […]

After 11 seasons on the air, the Pritchett, Dunphy, and Tucker families are set to end their Modern Family run with a two-part series finale on ABC. It's not like fans didn't know it was coming, and yet there's still this feeling that it snuck up on them when they weren't looking. Like how Supernatural […]

I don't know about you, but with the finale of ABC's Modern Family creeping up on us faster than we expected, I am feeling a bit nostalgic – especially when there's no new episode to watch. Turns out, the cast has officially wrapped filming after 11 seasons – with the cast taking to social media […]

This week's episode of ABC's Modern Family brought me back to what I love about the series – only to have the emotional impact undercut by awkward, oddly-placed "clip show" flashbacks. Those moments aside, it was enjoyable ride that took some turns I wasn't expecting. From the emotional "feels" standpoint, this episode hit pretty hard […]

ABC's long-running hit comedy series Modern Family has reached its own version of "The Final Four" – and we have a prediction about the finale. While we don't pretend to have the show expertise that our own Alejandra Bodden's been demonstrating this season with her episode-per-episode reviews (check out her thoughts on "Paris" here), we […]

Over the course of 11 seasons, ABC's long-running hit comedy series Modern Family has taken the Pritchetts, Dunphys, and Tuckers across the country and around the world. From Hawaii to Australia… Wyoming to Disneyland… Las Vegas to Lake Tahoe to New York… it's safe to say our on-screen family has definitely left its marks on […]

This week's episode of ABC's Modern Family was much more light-hearted, perfect to follow the one from last week. It truly got a few laughs off of me and I enjoyed all storylines. They seriously keep tugging at my heart-strings and seemingly setting more groundwork for what is to come to finalize the show. It […]

With ABC's long-running hit comedy series Modern Family set to shuffle off the network's programming coil after eleven seasons, Bleeding Cool's Alejandra Bodden is offering viewers an episode-per-episode critical look at the final season (with her recent review of "Legacy" here). Because let's face it: after over a decade on the air, everyone's just a […]

This week's episode of ABC's Modern Family was unexpected and simply fantastic. It really took me by surprise in many ways—especially with how more toned down, beautiful, and heartbreaking it was – all at once. It has been incredibly hard for me to write about this episode, to be honest. I kept staring at my […]

With the holidays around the corner, I will try to keep my thoughts on Modern Family short-n-sweet… more like venomously sweet, like this week's episode made me feel. The episode danced right on the edge of my very last nerve, to be honest. It was full of poison that I was almost willing to let […]

Because let's face it: after over a decade on the air, everyone's […]

In order to fill the emptiness left behind with the lack of ABC's Modern Family this week and in honor of Thanksgiving week, I decided to commemorate the things about the show that I am most thankful for. Quite honestly, there were too many so I settled on three core topics that really impact me […]

This week's episode of ABC's Modern Family hits "The Feels" with another last: Thanksgiving. It was a cute episode that started off a bit weak and had me worried, but ended up hitting all the right notes by the credits (and a nice end creditsscene). We do get some sense of closure as some characters […]

I am incredibly happy to report that ABC's Modern Family actually took me pleasantly by surprise this week. Considering this season has run hot and cold so far, this was a strong outing. It seems they are setting up some groundwork as the episodes go by that might seem to hint at the future – […]

With this season's fifth episode, ABC's Modern Family definitely lived up to expectations. Not only was it a fun episode, but it also made me nostalgic for the earlier seasons when the story and the characters were so on point that it made us actually feel. This episode really took me by surprise—it did not […]

Holiday episodes are always the best in ABC's Modern Family – and I especially look forward to the Halloween episodes. This episode's name is giving me all the feels, however… I mean, we knew this day would come but I am not sure we were ever going to be prepared for the last one. The […]

With ABC's Modern Family premiering its 11th and final season next week, it has been stirring all sorts of weird "feels" inside me. While it is always good to see shows actually have an ending, it also becomes a bit nostalgic to see characters you have come to love say goodbye—like a good friend who […]
