What is it With The LOVE AFFAIR For 'Modern Family?!?'

[Brian Damage]

Don't get me wrong the show is funny, it does great in the ratings and Sofia Vergara is really pleasing to the eyes. However, does it really need to win every single comedy award out there every single awards show???

I don't understand all the hype myself.

Monika, it just shows me the lack of imagination from Hollywood. The show is funny, but so are so many other shows on tv.

I like the show but I like TBBT and The Middle better. The Middle never gets nominated for any awards.

Sonny, Hollywood is like a clique, they pick and choose who is cool and hip and don't let anybody else in. lol

That's why I haven't watched the Emmy Awards in 20 years. lol

I love all three shows, but Modern Family is the best show on TV. I can't wait to watch it every week. Never miss repeats even. It deserves all of the awards because it deals with real life topics for every family. It's The Cosby Show of this generation. It's done what no single-camera sitcom has done--mass appeal. And actors themselves picked the show to win tonight, so it was their peers.

That just a matter of opinion of course.

It's like they don't think outside the box.

So aren't people who vote for awards making an opinion too? They think it's the best comedy. And I agree. Plus it didn't win any for best actor and best actress tonight (Baldwin and Betty White won).

Of course it is an opinion, but it is same old opinion year after year, award show after award show.

The show has been only on three seasons. It didn't win the SAG its first season. And its Golden Globe win a few weeks ago was its first Globe.

Don't get me wrong...I do like Modern Family and am glad it's doing well. I prefer it to the low rated NBC single-cam shows that I've never found that funny. I watch the show every week as well. I just like TBBT and The Middle better. I do wish these award shows would give all good shows a chance to win. There are more great comedies besides Modern Family.

I know it didn't Pav, it was some other show that was considered hip and cool Glee which already has run its course.

Besides Jim Parsons, I don't think Big Bang is a type of show for awards. Then again Two and a Half Men kept getting nominated, and Big Bang is way better than that show. I do wish The Middle gets nominated for Patricia Heaton at least. I just don't think they are best comedy material.
