Given our schedules, it's tough for my wife and I to commit to a weekly TV show. In fact, all the TV shows we get into now are watched ad hoc, via Netflix streaming, DVD/Blu-ray, or DVR (an ingenious invention that we only recently latchted onto). We caught just a few episodes of the first season of Modern Family when it aired and that was enough to have me believing that it was on par with the best comedies currently on television. Watching through the entire season on Blu-ray did nothing but confirm my belief. Modern Family features a pretty large ensemble of characters for a sit-com, but the razor sharp writing gives each one a unique identity and distinct contribution to the show's many laughs. The Blu-ray does it's job perfectly with an image as sharp as the show's dialogue, lossless surround sound (somewhat superfluous on a mostly dialog-driven show) and some fun extras.
