Some viewers felt like they were a part of the family with ABCās original television show. Gloria had another baby, Alex went to college, and Haley had twins. Though some joined the cast earlier than others, each character is a piece of this loveable Modern Family.Ā
Cast members commented on their favorite episodes, their favorite characters, and even their favorite Philās-osphy quotes. That includes Julie Bowen, who portrays the mother of three and Pritchettās Closets & Blinds employee, Claire Dunphy.Ā
Who are the castās favorite characters?
Although fans have their own personal favorite Modern Family characters, a few of the cast members shared who their favorites are. As part of an interview with ABC News, Julie Bowen shared who her favorite character is. Of course, itās her characterās husband Phil Dunphy.Ā
āThereās something that Ty Burrell has done with that character that has taken him from odd and funny to, like, heās like the unicorn of TV dads,ā Bowen said. (According to fans on Ranker, Phil Dunphy is the fan-favorite character, as well.)
The āModern Familyā cast shared which were their favorite episodesĀ
With over 200 episodes released and available for binge-watching, itās pretty had to pick a favorite. For Sofia Vergara, her favorite episodes include season 1ās āHawaiiā and season 3ās āDude Ranch.ā
āI love all of the trips,ā Sofia Vergara said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. āWe work, of course, but since the whole cast is in the same hotel, itās like a big vacation. Really, I love all of it because Iām new to acting, and every time Iām on set, Iām learning. Chris and Steve have good energy, and they understand how to talk to each of us. Chris even talks to me with my accent ā well, everyone does my accent, but he does it really well. I didnāt know he was doing it at first; I just knew I could understand him better.ā
Eric Stonestreet shared that his favorite episode had to do with Camās lovable clown alter-ego, Fizbo. Season 1ās āFizboā showed how the Dunphy clan planned to celebrate for Lukeās birthday.Ā
āI loved the āFizboā episode, and I was fortunate enough to win the Emmy for it,ā said Stonestreet. āIt was very personal. All I ever wanted to be growing up was a clown in the circus, so it was really a full-circle moment for me. I mean, having an episode of primetime television named after a goofy clown character you played when you were 11 years old in Kansas is a pretty big āwowā moment.ā
New episodes of Modern Family premiere on a weekly basis. The series finale of Modern Family will air on April 8.Ā
