AVClub: So far this season, Modern Family has adhered to a bit of a strange structure. Early on in the season there seemed to be a few dominant storylines destined to play out for much of the season. After all, the show has often structured its season around a few storylines, finding ways to let them grow individually while also interweaving them when the circumstances called for it. That gave the seasons a sense of purpose, as if even the one-off episodes served the larger narrative vision. This season has struggled to present a clear narrative thread though, and while that doesn’t always signal a downturn in quality—Modern Family is a sitcom after all, so serialized storytelling isn’t exactly its focus—there’s a haphazard nature to the episodes this season that’s left a lot of storylines and characters without any forward momentum.
