As the episodes progress, the colors get bolder and the detail is more noticeable. The first episode looks especially rough, with a lot of soft shots and less impressive colors. While it's nothing to bust out for a demo, this 1.78:1 transfer shows how much the show's image has improved with age. The Modern Family Blu-ray set is a slight step up from ABC's weekly HD presentation. Instead of coming off corny, it's extremely well written, worries very little about what's PC, and leaves very little time to take a breath during each episode. Every episode takes a hilarious and often unorthodox look at family life. While the sheer numbers may make your head spin, it all works - very well. Jay's other offspring is Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), who lives with his partner Cameron (Emmy winner Eric Stonestreet) and their newly adopted baby. First up is Claire (Julie Bowen), who lives with her uber-dorky husband Phil (Ty Burrell) and three completely opposite kids (Sarah Hyland, Ariel Winter and Nolan Gould). She also has a son Manny (the underappreciated Rico Rodriguez). In fact, not since the days of Arrested Development have we seen a family this dysfunctional, or funny, for that matter.įilmed in a mockumentary style, the family includes O'Neill's Jay, who is married to a much-younger, muy caliente Columbian named Gloria (Sophia Vergara). Following the show's Emmy win for Best Comedy, Fox has released Modern Family: The Complete First Season on Blu-ray.Īs the family patriarch, Ed O'Neill ( Married with Children) heads up an extremely likeable, talented crew. Surprisingly, they picked a winner (literally) with Modern Family. After years of dedicating its lineup to drama, ABC wanted to see if its viewers could actually laugh again - on purpose.
