Am I the only one that loathes that show? And The Middle? Both of them. LOATHE.
 
It's trash.

Except for occasionally from Robert and Frank, so is "everybody loves raymond".

just trash
 
can't say I loath them.

never watched enough of either one to get that emotional about them
 
Why?

It is rather funny. I don't really watch sit-coms but catch a few here and there. Never been disappointed with a Modern Family.

I agree. Modern Family offers the right dose of comedy and realism relevant to modern age issues such as confluence (e.g., multiculturalism, LGBT, community values, etc.) and the American Dream.

In fact, Modern Family is so 'punctual,' that I'd compare it to the cultural appeal of Happy Days, which is why I'm positing this hypothetical 'mock-dialogue' about 'culture-credence TV' between Shiva (Hindu god of destruction) and Krishna (Hindu god of negotiation).

What do ya think???

TV's supposed to be a blast...


====

SHIVA: Who do you prefer, Julie Bowen or Sofia Vergara?
KRISHNA: They're both great on Modern Family!
SHIVA: I agree. The show speaks to modern-age issues.
KRISHNA: I think the show is as 'classy' as Happy Days!
SHIVA: Yes, they both provide a cultural 'antidote' to anti-American sentiments.
KRISHNA: Would you rather live in Cuba?
SHIVA: Cubans boast an under-valued culture!
KRISHNA: True, but America is the home of free speech.
SHIVA: Yes, well, that was what Castro was mostly criticized for.
KRISHNA: The Internet has created a demand for 'ale TV.'

Probably.

Do you watch them every week faithfully just to confirm how much you loath them?
I really have to wonder how anyone can loathe anything on TV.

I do not think I have ever had a strong enough emotional connection with anything on TV to actually LOATHE it. That is a rather extreme reaction to a television program.
