- CuriosidadesThe title comes from the erroneously attributed catchphrase from the Burns and Allen TV series The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (1950). George Burns would say "Say goodnight, Gracie", and the reply should have been "Goodnight, Gracie". Although Gracie Allen never actually said that, the catchphrase is often mentioned.
- PifiasWhen Jay is talking with the neighbor he thought was his "first", she presents him with various tokens she mistakes for gifts from him. One of them is a Bronze Star Medal, which Jay tells her is the "wrong branch of service". The Bronze Star is not service specific, it's awarded across all branches for meritorious achievement or heroism in a combat zone.

Alex Dunphy: [reading from her grandmother's note] This is a lighter. It belonged to my favorite actor, Paul Newman. One day, he came into the restaurant where I was waitressing and accidentally left it behind. For the first time in my life, I did something I wasn't supposed to and slipped it into my pocket. One of the customers saw and said, "Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me." That customer turned out to be the love of my life, your grandfather. So, my Alex, who I love so dearly, who's probably too much like me for her own good, every once in a while, don't be afraid to break the rules. You never know what might happen.

In this area the season continues to provide good incidental laughs throughout – fairly consistently too. It is very finely crafted, and the use of the documentary style is treated almost like a "safe spot" where jokes can be delivered around the main events; although being honest the amount of times the show now relies on this format for its deliverables means that it does bug me more that the approach is entirely without justification since there is no "filmmaker" here for them to speak to. The polish in the script is well delivered by the cast, who continue to show good comic timing across the board; Burrell continues to be great with verbal and physical humor, with Hyland, Winter, and Gould all getting good material this season. Vergara's broadness at times doesn't work so well, but still she is very funny. Indeed it is hard to say there is a weak link since Bowen, Stonestreet, Ferguson, O'Neill, and all are generally very good with their deliveries. The performance from Anderson-Emmons as Lily is variable (for good reason given her age), and she does have the problem that even when her timing/delivery is pretty good, it stands out by virtue of her company.
This season's main weakness continues from previous years, which is that the same slick polish it has, does mean that the heart of the show also feels very refined and manufactured. Usually this is not an issue, but at times the season does have emotional/bonding moments which in older times would have been accompanied by a studio audience "awwww" then applause; these work on a superficial level, which is fine, but I ended this season still not feeling any great emotional attachment to the people or the show. Not a problem in many ways, since it is a slick network sitcom, and it is the well- honed laughs that make it enjoyable, even if other aspects do keep it feeling a little more plastic than I would like.
