I just remembered that I've seen all of Modern Family and it was honestly kind of a shock. I can remember thinking the writing was excellent but I honestly cannot remember a single thing about that show. Not a single plot or character has stuck in my mind in a meaningful way. I remember that they were well-crafted and entertaining, I do not remember them. That show is just a white vacancy in my brain with "tightly written, clever" stamped on top.

#it's crazy because im not kidding when i say it was a masterclass in sitcom writing #it's clever and funny and heartwarming and has just the right amount of poignancy to make the storylines really land #and somehow still manages to have absolutely no real insight or emotional power whatsoever #incidentally this is also how i feel about paul mccartneys musical career #the difference is that paul is a delight and the only actor from mf who's really exceptionally charismatic is sofia vergara #they'll probably teach it in film classes and i swear you could learn a lot from it but damn i have absolutely no memory of it at all #op #posts that no one asked for
