We watch a lot of TV. Good TV. Bad TV. TV we feel guilty for watching. TV we feel smart for watching. And all TV in between.

i'm sure there's pho somewhere in denver...

Just a quick update for Modern Family, which quite frankly, I'm starting to enjoy more than Glee. I actually watched tonight's episode in real time since baseball's taken over FOX's regularly scheduled programming, and I laughed way more during this show than during Glee.

Okay, the plot with the Asian doctor was a little dumb and a lot of cliché (how many times have we seen the bowing to an Asian person gag on TV?), but I have to admit I still laughed at Cameron. There was just something inherently funny about his mention of pho, I guess.

Lots of great sight gags--the baby with the huge afro, Manny in the poncho channeling Ugly Betty, Phil getting hit by the car...

My vote for line(s) of the night go to: "My son will die a virgin." The "That's right" that followed made it art, though.

And I'm not sure if I'm the only one who caught that throwaway line from Cameron at the end after the car door magically opens ("Did that come from space??") but that made me laugh out loud.
