"Scrubs" did this kind of thing to death and rendered most of those episodes unwatchable for repeat viewings but thankfully "Modern Family" doesn't have this all of the time. Like in one scene the camera crew is in Haley's room while she's sleeping, her boyfriend's on the floor, and Claire bursts in telling her to get up - but doesn't mention the camera crew in her sleeping daughter's room?

This is definitely one of the funniest family comedies out there at the moment, having some superbly written episodes and clever setups. "Modern Family" follows Phil and Claire and their three kids, Haley, Alex and Luke Mitchell, Cameron and Lily, a gay couple who've adopted a Vietnamese baby Jay (father of Claire and Mitchell) who's married a Colombian woman Gloria and Gloria's son Manny - all part of the same family and all agreeing to be filmed as part of a reality show to showcase what family life is like in the 21st century.
