My, how the time has flown. Modern Family, the most honoured comedy in recent television history, celebrated its 100th episode Wednesday night. In addition, there was not that much buzz attached to this milestone, likely because reaching this point was a foregone conclusion as soon as the first season showed strong ratings and viewership. There were not any big celebrity guests and no major plot twists. Instead, the comedy showed that 100 episodes in, it can still be fresh, sharp, sweet and overall, very funny.
Farm Strong is a better episode than last’s week overstuffed collection of stories, mostly because it does a terrific job at gathering the varying plot threads into one scene, a dinner at the Pritchett’s, before the last commercial break. Although just two of the three main stories work in their entirety, Farm Strong, written by Emmy-winner Elaine Ko and directed by Alisa Statman, recalls season one-era episodes.
