It was a heartbreak for all the Modern Family fans the world over when the iconic sitcom finally came to an end in 2020. The show, aside from occupying a special place in everyone’s hearts, won more than 84 Emmy nominations and had 22 wins to its credit. There is no iota of doubt that Modern Family will continue to rule hearts even after it went off the air, thanks to the huge influence the characters of the show had on the audience. The storylines were not only simple but highly relatable. Every single viewer could connect themselves to the sitcom and that’s where Modern Family won. People are expecting the show to return in all its glory, but they may have to wait for a while. Nevertheless, there are a bunch of best and funniest amongst the 250 Modern Family episodes that you can binge on. Check out the list below.
The Pilot Episode
The followers of the show will vouch for almost every episode of Modern Family. However, the pilot episode, that’s season 1 episode 1, will always be memorable. That gave the viewers an impression of the kind of characters they are going to get introduced to, what kind of storylines they can experience in the following years, and so on and so forth. In short, the first episode of the first season kind of told the audience what they can expect. After the show started running, it didn’t take much time for the followers to fall in love with the dynamic and highly intriguing members of the Dunphy-Pritchett-Tucker household. Every single person had different characteristics to boast of and the viewers took no time to start adoring them. Especially, the chemistry between the members was something to watch out for. All in all, it was a fantastic start!
Three Turkeys
It was the 8th episode of the 6th season. Misunderstandings and the chaos surrounding them are pretty common in comedies and Three Turkeys were perfectly on point. Viewers watched utter chaos happening on Thanksgiving when Phil makes up his mind to take the responsibility of managing cooking duties on his shoulders, while Jay and Gloria lie about the location they were headed for the vacation. Hilarious incidents take place when the turkey has been swapped and Phil is forced to believe that he has literally shrunk it. Jay and Gloria come up with all the excuses in the world while explaining why they were present at the house. The episode made the followers burst out into laughter.
Fizbo
Fizbo is the 9th episode of season 1. The character of Cam had several traits that made the audience fall in love with him. The clown in Fizbo actually had a huge impact on the viewers as they got to see another aspect of Cam’s character. He was undoubtedly charming and enjoyable. But the clown brought to the front another side of him. He was definitely comfortable and confident in his alter-ego. Cam certainly had a bunch of memorable Fizbo moments and viewers have even ranked them. Such had been his popularity among the followers.
Little Bo Bleep
Viewers will vouch for the fact that the Dunphy household had been the center of all attention in almost all the episodes of Modern Family. However, the writers chose to modify that and by season 3, Lily, Mitchell, and Cam got some extremely funny storylines. For example, in Little Bo Bleep, Lily doesn’t stop uttering some curse phrases at every possible moment, while Mitchell and Cam find themselves short of phrases. The total sequence was just out of the world and is still considered one of the funniest episodes of Modern Family. If you are a true-blue fan of the sitcom, you would want to return to this episode over and over again.
Family Portrait
The season 1 finale of Modern Family is worth a mention. Every single character had their moments under the sun. The viewers were introduced to new pairings and they had the opportunity to experience extra depth in the household dynamic. With that being said, the best scene in the last episode was when Mitchell attempts to chase a pigeon out, but ended up destroying the house.
The other episodes that have to be on the list are Caught in the Act, Las Vegas, Fulgencio, American Skyper, and My Funky Valentine. Which one do you think should be on this list? Let us know in the comments.
