I Love a Parade

What has happened to this once great show ? Dreadful and not funny ,although I wasn't expecting too much as this show started to go downhill last season .Time to call it a day .

I knew MF was going down down down but I thought at least the final season would be ok. It was not even ok, just horrible! Shame...

Not a bad first episode to the much awaited 10th season, but not great either. The patriotism was quite nice, with the show starting with a 4th of July parade. There has been a political agenda being written into the show in the last few seasons but this wasn't as blatant as a previous episode. The whole episode did however seem a bit messy and random with a total disconnect between the three families. No spoilers. The story with Haley has become rather one dimensional and it seems that it's going to continue as such into this new season. It's sad that her character couldn't have been made more interesting. It was and still is only about her exes and relationships which has got really stale and predictable. Alex doesn't have much of a role as of this episode which may be a good thing because her character too has become so one dimensional and predictable again. Cam and Mitch are quite pleasant and fun to watch and of course Lily still hasn't learnt how to act. She's just as dead pan as ever. Sadly even my favourite Ed O'Neil doesn't seem to be given much to work with while Sofia Vergara looks bored. It just looks like the creators and writers have given up on bringing anything new and interesting into the show and any of the characters lives. It's probably just going to fizzle out with the show wrapping up with this season as its last. Loyal Modern Family fans are of course going to watch till the end, but not because it's still the same awesome show it initially was, but because we just wanna see how everything turns out. Of course the show is still pleasant and watchable, just not great anymore.

Everything is as it is except for the voice over saying what everyone is doing (while there are no dialogues). That voice over (narrator) is very disturbing and irritating and hence the rating 1 star.

I think I laughed more than over the span of the whole last season. There's definitely hope, where there was none BEFORE watching this episode.
