I am bored wacthing Modern Family. It was recommended to me by Hulu because I watched The Office (American version). The only thing similar to The Office and Modern Family is the documentary style of filming. It's not funny because there's no "Michael Scott" character that carries the show. There's no one guy being absurdly ridiculous that gets you sucked into the show for 20 hours straight. The humor is predictable and bland. The characters do not feel genuine. In fact some of the special guest stars have more passion and depth than the original cast. The show feels "too safe." I feel like the writers could have made the show more dramatic. I have only watched the first season so I hope that there will be progression in character development and funny antics. I'm not getting my hopes up, though.
