I think Modern Family jumped the shark tonight

[Reginald Tresilian]

Obviously once my attention was drawn to them I noticed them. But I don't think they're the only thing going on in that photo; I first actually noticed that she's as lovely as the supposedly pretty sister.

As awful as "Sleeper" was last week, I think last night's episode was brilliant.

[NYadgal]

I enjoyed last night's episode. The set-up for the 'big event' next week.

The stars of ABC celebrated the wedding on stage at the ABC Upfront presentation on Tuesday. Mitch and Cam came out of a giant wedding cake, and everyone on stage raised a glass.

At the after-party, members of the Modern Family cast shared that the wedding episode is wonderfully touching, while staying true to the comedy of the show. I'll be watching!

[Reginald Tresilian]

Can't wait!

I loved last night's episode even though every appearance of the nanny just made me groan. He is truly the Cousin Oliver of this show. I liked the way Pepper and the wedding planner softened and became more human as the minutes til the wedding ticked down.

"My dad would never admit this, but when he wants fun, he goes straight to Luke. They have a weird connection. They're like Batman and Robin. Dad and I are more like Batman and Ruth Bader Ginsburg."

The season ended tonight with the conclusion of the wedding episode. Except for the extraneous scenes with the dreaded nanny (and the writers have done nothing to make me care about Haley's feelings for him), it was all pretty wonderful. These last two episodes were the best they've ever used Nathan Lane, who completely cracked me up by walking the line between frantic and loving.

I cried by the end. Was I the only one?

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I kept it together until Jay and Mitchell were walking down the aisle and Mitchell put his head on Jay's shoulder.

I still hate Lily with the fire of a thousand suns, but I agree with the Nathan Lane usage.

[darquegk]

I think Lily is actually kind of cleverly used- they avoid "the baby ruining the show" syndrome by walking the line between her being cute and being actually loathsome. It's a dangerous path, but it's much better than making her just hateful or just adorable.

[FindingNamo]

I did LOL when she got caught on the dry cleaning rack last week.

[Marianne2]

I liked it as well. The end where Jay came through to get the wedding back on track was really sweet. I agree that Lily can be annoying sometimes. But, I still don't think she tops my hatred for Michelle from Full House. There's an example of a kids who started off really cute to becoming an obnoxious brat and being a draw to the show.

Anyway, I thought the side stuff with Alex taking the awkward photos of Luke and Manny was funny.

[madbrian]

Terrific episode. And while I understand the strong feelings about the nanny, I thought Sarah Hyland was wonderful in this episode.

[Reginald Tresilian]

^ I did, too.

And I like Lilly. She can't quite act, exactly, but she can deliver a line, and I like the way she's written.

And yeah, I teared up when Jay walked Mitch down the aisle.

[madbrian]

Yeah, Ed O'Neill has been an underappreciated actor for about 30 years.

[adamgreer]

I think the little girl who plays Lily can deliver a one-liner as well as anyone on that show.

[Jordan Catalano]

The "I thought we would take a walk" line made me audibly sob. Beautiful writing.

But the best line of the night was the "when a baby is born so early, it's usually black" line. EL OH EL

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

See, I think Lily has two modes - bitchy and morose. And I don't find either one particularly compelling.

[brdlwyr]

I loved the episode - the line about the baby being black - hilarious. Campy schtick at times - but very sweet ending.

[Jungle Red]

I loved the finale! Smart, funny, and real. Modern Family has always towed the line from super sitcomy and serious, and it worked last night. I teared up when they actually got married.

LOL moments:
Lily walking down the aisle with the one flower.
"Black baby"
Manny and Luke acting like a married couple

[songanddanceman2]

Awww how can anyone dislike Lily, her one liners are brilliant and she delivers them so well.

Perfect finale tonight, even the nanny scenes didn't annoy me.

[Reginald Tresilian]

Oh, man. I'm rewatching, and I just heard the line "Cut the boy soprano."
