I've been following the show for a while now and I'm happy that it still hasn't jumped the shark. The writing has been alright this season, nothing too spectacular, but nothing bad either.
This episode, however, wasn't written as a Modern Family episode for the most part.
The obviousness of pushing a pro-Clinton agenda is painful to see. Even spreading feminist myths, which have been debunked from time to time is something I didn't expect the writers would do. Sadly, they did. Modern Family has been a show with some liberal episodes (which fits in with the Los Angeles setting), but this episode felt like propaganda.
The Jay & Phil storyline in this was good though. It was humorous and very well paced. So I guess the writers did a good job on that.
Overall, not one of the best episodes, but if you like the show a lot you should watch it.
