Who loves Modern Family? (rush of raising hands) Good! You should. It’s one of the best sit-coms to come along in AGES! And I look forward to it every week – laughs galore! So imagine my surprise when, after a particularly funny zinger from Gloria (Sofia Vergara), we cut to commercial and David Duchovny’s voice ushers me down Kleenex Alley with this commercial:
Holy-effing-Cow, right? Talk about sucker punch. “HAhahahahahahahaha…. ah Modern Family, you are so funny, haha…. Ummmm….wait a minute, what’s this? Ahhh…(sniffle)… (sniff sniff)…(cue TEARDUCTS)… WAAAAAHHHH”
BAM! Another one bites the Kibble.
Neglected pups as heroes? As the teller of tales? Punched right into my own vulnerable writer/artist self-image and got the lower lip quivering at lightening speed. Now I want to go out and adopt a whole herd of the little things.
Thanks a lot, Duchovny.
