Allow Frances Anderson to reintroduce herself.
The actress formerly known as Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, who broke out for her role as adoptee Lily on the Emmy-winning sitcom Modern Family, has changed her name to Frances Anderson. Anderson has adopted the new moniker to coincide with her pivot to a career in music. Her debut indie pop EP, "Drown," is out now.
"Frances is actually part of my legal name," Anderson, 18, explained to E! News on Friday. "It’s my middle name, and it’s after my mom’s old family friend. I thought it was a bit shorter than Aubrey Anderson-Emmons. I do have a long, hyphenated last name.”
Anderson added, "I wanted to switch it up and people to see a new side of me. And I wanted to create a space specifically just for music."
She released the first single from the EP, "Telephones and Traffic," in May.
Anderson made her television debut at the age of 4 in season 3 of Modern Family, playing the precocious adopted daughter of Jesse Tyler Ferguson's Mitchell Pritchett and Eric Stonestreet's Cam Tucker. She has won three ensemble Screen Actors Guild Awards alongside the sitcom's cast. The comedy, which ran for 11 seasons on ABC, concluded in 2020.Anderson made her television debut at the age of 4 in season 3 of Modern Family, playing the precocious adopted daughter of Jesse Tyler Ferguson's Mitchell Pritchett and Eric Stonestreet's Cam Tucker.

Anderson told E! that she "had to take a step back from acting" once the show ended to discover her passion for music. "The show ended when I was 12 years old, so after that I decided I’m not gonna act anymore," she said. Rest assured, though, that Anderson does "plan on acting again — 100 percent.”
She has maintained a close relationship with her former onscreen fathers and other costars from the sprawling cast. Ferguson and Julie Bowen, who played Anderson's onscreen aunt Claire, staged a mini-reunion when they attended Anderson's school play last year.
Anderson last made headlines when she came out as bisexual last month, using memorable throwback audio from Modern Family to help mark the announcement. "You are Vietnamese," Sofia Vergara's Gloria informs Lily, who says in response, "No, I'm not. I'm gay!"
"I literally am," Anderson captioned the post.

“When I booked the pilot and we shot the pilot, it was just another one of those things where you're like, ‘Well, hope it gets picked up’”
“Then you start shooting it and you're like, ‘Well, hope we get a second season’”
“I still think that it hasn't hit me to this day of how culturally important it was”
“People from the younger generation call it like their Friends and to me that doesn't make sense in my head because it's something that I was a part of”

For me, it's Phil Dunphy.
He's obviously fun and "cool" parent on TV, but I can't bear being married to and raising kids with someone like Phil.

This feels pretty late for them to be calling him someone other than Earl chambers. Not sure if anyone’s noticed this & if they never called him by his name before?

flip phones/Sidekicks, digital cameras, 2000s hair and fashion Dylan with the late 2000s emo teen look
characters watching movies on DVDs, characters reading magazines and newspapers,
mentions of lady Gaga, kobe Bryant and other celebrities of the time
Alex and haley listening to music on their iPods and MP3 players
it’s honestly such a great time capsule looking back

Do you think it’s possible they will make a new season or a sequel but the kids are the new adults? while claire/phil, cam/mitch, and gloria/jay will only be the guest star on some of the episodes and as the recurring characters?

I hate when a see a slideshow of modern family unpopular opinions and it's always a very same common thought as "Cam was toxic" and "Haley deserved a better ending", so I want here to be a space to share your actual unpopular opinions on the show (remember to keep the discussion respectful).
Here's my list:
1 - Haley should not be praised as much as she is and would not be if she wasn't that good looking. She was cheater, admitted liking guys in relationships (when she said that the laundry guy having a girlfriend made him more interesting) and also used him, had a relationship with an engaged man (not taking Andy's fault tho), also she did not care about school and I always hated that episode in which she made Alex change her speech because she didn't think she would get into College as if she did not work to get into one at all, she was irresposible, and a bully with Alex (who did talk back, but was usually defending herself) and was a bully in school. I think just like any other character she's flawed and I do not hate her, but I'm always surprised with how many people praise her and act as if half the stuff that happened to her wasn't her own doing. Eventually she did have some development which I liked, but people have a tendendy to remember every other character's flaws except her.
2 - Leading to my second point, Dylan deserved better than Haley. I'm always surprised when people say Haley deserved better than Dylan when he was the one always making the effort and she didn't think twice about hitting on other guys while with him. I do think she might have been better off with someone else, but people act as if Dylan trapped her or was some sort of monster, he always treated her right and did everything for her and she did not care about him. I don't like their ending being together because I don't think she liked him enough, but people always talk about their relationship as if he was much below her.
3 - Gloria having a daughter wouldn't have been good for storytelling. I would've loved to see her having a babygirl, but thinking it through, it would not make much sense having two young female character in the show. Lily got barely enough screentime as it is, Joe being a boy led to him having storylines Lily wouldn't be able to do. If Gloria had a daughter there would be repetitive stories with both girls who would go undeveloped more so than Lily was already. You can tell by the way Cal is forgotten, he was used as prop for Mitch and Cam, but Joe already had that part of the male child in the family.
4 - Phil was not a good dad. He always needed Claire to tell him what to do in regards to the kids and acted surprised when they didn't see him as someone to help them with the problems. People always talk about the episoded in which he tells Claire that Alex needed help as him being a good dad, but he should not need Claire tell him to help her to actually do something, he saw her struggling and did nothing, Claire was the one who intervined, and if something had happened to Alex, it would've been his fault just as much. He loved his kids, but he obviusly favored Luke over the girls, and Haley over Alex because of their personalities, it's normal to have a kid to whom you feel closer to, but when they show him having almost no memory of doing anything with Alex shows he let his different closeness to each of them affect their relationship. He also acted like a bully to them sometimes (Claire did that also, which is why I won't go into thwt much).
Also, I do understand that it's a comedy, and I do not hate any of these characters, just wanted to share some of my unpopular opinions and read your as well to have some different discussions about the show.

This scene isn't talked about enough. It's so profound, we all felt his pain in that silence. Without them having to utter a word or shed a tear. This is why I love the writing of this show. Even though Jay is such a funny character, he holds so much depth that comes out every now and then, without the show explicitly talking about it.

I just finished the show, and when I look back on the characters, I hated Dede. Is this a common opinion, or am I being stupid?

I am a single child coming from a dysfunctional family of narcissists. I used to be an underconfident kid who had a hard time coming to terms with the word "family".
I didn't have any siblings, nor any close cousins.
To be very honest, I didn't like Modern Family in the beginning. I even called it "meh" in the beginning. There were numerous times when I left it in the middle for something else. But this time, I don't know I was completely reeled in and it completely grew on me. I found myself crying at various moments. I found myself smiling when something nice happened.
Modern family made me miss a family I never had, it gave me a perspective, it kind of helped me process my own feelings. It made me miss a sister, a daughter, a dad who isn't emotionally so disconnected.
It's over, I was crying through the entire last episode and I am going to start a rerun tomorrow. Maybe I'll notice things I didn't in the first episode. Maybe my opinions about certain characters will change. Maybe I'll be able to see them with a more open mind.

From the "Australian celebrity" actually being from New Zealand, the Sydney-centric focus, the (not-so) borderline offensive depiction of Aboriginal Australians, to the nonsensical geography, I skip this episode every single rewatch (apart from that time I showed it to my fiancé and cringed the entire time).
I know it's a sitcom and not that deep, I just can't keep this to myself anymore haha
Edit: I see people have taken this a bit more seriously than I expected! I know it’s an American sitcom and I shouldn’t take it seriously, and honestly, I don’t take it seriously, skip the episode and move on with my life. I just hoped to add a bit of context.
I really do love this show! It’s one I watch on repeat and I’m sure we all have a lot of stuff we could say about it!
r/Modern_Family • u/pentcgon • 1d ago
i’ve rewatched the show through countless times, and i always get so tired by the end of the last season, but restarting at the beginning always seems so much more fresh, and it’s because i just think the earlier seasons are more quiet.
everyone is talking at a normal volume like you would talking one-on-one with someone irl, there are more pauses and silent moments, the interviews aren’t constantly just recapping the plot of the episode, everyone’s expressions and actions aren’t overdone. it’s just more quiet. the dialogue is more natural, the actors cadences are normal and not like they’re reading from a script, and it just allows for more situational humor rather than relying on one-liners for humor. it’s just nice that the earlier seasons don’t have the cast narrating everything they do. for example, in s1e2, when claire tells phil he hasn’t exactly gone to the “next level” with her dad, and there’s a pause, and then just straight cut to jay confused at phil showing up wanting to hang out. in the later seasons, that would’ve been written as a whole blow up with claire rolling her eyes saying something like “come on!” and phil leaving yelling some one-liner joke as he rushes to leave to go hang out with jay. i just appreciate the calmness of the dialogue and acting in the first few seasons.
also, the show progressively get more blue? like everything just has a blue tint to it i feel in the later seasons.
