This episode is the perfect example of why I'll never understand people basing their ratings on how funny MF is. The show would never have lasted as long as it has if it was JUST funny. Modern Family has so many levels, yes, it's funny, but it's also sweet, touching. It makes you think, it can be mindless, you laugh, you cry. Sometimes at the same time! This is one of those episodes. I'm smiling for majority of this episode but no matter what, as soon as Ty Burrell says that line about not knowing that would be last day he spent with his dad, the tears flow. Especially because by the time I saw the episode the first time here in Australia, Fred Willard had already passed away so it hit harder. Great performances by all on this one. I will only ever give high ratings for Modern Family. If I don't feel the need to, I will keep quiet.
