How to evaluate the American drama Modern Family?

The following is taken from Zhihu's Yu Hao Yun.

Recently, a beautiful modern family in Weibo opened a new one for the modern family. Welcome to pay attention to your friends.

I don't know if anyone still remembers the 2002 mainland TV series "Modern Family" with the same name. I saw it when I was a kid. It tells the story that several children of a traditional Beijing family married foreigners, including a mixed-race Jacob and a lovely child. The reason why this drama is mentioned is because, like the American drama Modern Family, there are some similarities in character setting in order to highlight the word modern. Modern families in the mainland have domestic violence, divorce and other factors. Modern Family, an American drama, has created a relaxed and happy sitcom.

I watched Modern Family out of boredom. After watching several episodes, I became fascinated after clarifying the relationship between the characters. If it doesn't matter, a new drama must watch at least three episodes, and you won't know whether you like it or not until the relationship between the characters is clear, especially Modern Family, which is full of supporting roles and no leading role. In my mind, this is a magical drama, with excellent plot and actors, and it is a well-made work of heart. Be sure to calm down and experience it carefully, and you will gain a lot of emotion.

I think the best thing is that each of them has his own small shortcomings and selfishness, which makes the whole upheaval real, but this selfishness will not affect the harmony and love of the whole family at all. You may even fall in love with a person because of his small shortcomings. Every joke comes from life. If there is no extreme love for life, it is impossible to write such a play. I always feel how delicate the emotions of the master should be. A few days ago, Modern Family won the Emmy Award for Best Comedy for the fifth time. When the master delivered his acceptance speech, he joked that after showing his daughter around the studio, her daughter said, "It's a miracle that they still have a roof!" I want to say that this miracle comes from so many caring people who like this play.

At first, I read the introduction, saying that it recorded the life of American middle-class families in the form of mockumentary. In order to reflect the diversity of modern elements, there is a white American couple, two women and one man, plus an old man and several wives. His wife is Colombian, he has a son born by his ex-husband, plus a pair of white homosexuals, and an Asian daughter is adopted.

First, let's talk about Claire and Phil. Personally, they are a core couple and the most "normal" looking couple.

Housewife Claire has returned to her father's cabinet company in the fifth season, ready to take over the business. The first time I met Claire's actor, Julie Bowen, was playing a female lawyer in the American drama boston legal. First of all, I was attracted by her appearance. At that time, she was still very young, with healthy dark blond hair, delicate facial features and always tough speech. It is the feeling of a particularly orthodox beauty lawyer. Later, I saw her play a housewife of a modern family, who was troubled by trivial matters of life every day, but it was still difficult to hide her beauty. This paragraph is beside the point, because I really like her haha. Claire is beautiful, capable, strong, stubborn and competitive, and loves her children and family. Needless to say. She received a good education and became a housewife for her children and her husband. Later, when the children grew up, it was good to return to the workplace. As a housewife, she will feel sorry for her three children and be moved by their sensitivity. As the mother of a bad policeman, she has to take care of the housework and worry about her beautiful adolescent daughter Harry, her second daughter Alex, who is unsociable and absorbed in reading, her lively and distracted youngest son Luke, and her naive husband Phil. Claire will play tricks to prove her point, be jealous of Gloria, her stepmother who is younger and prettier than herself, be sad because her mother only gives her slippers every Christmas, and laugh when Phil tells funny jokes. Sometimes I think one of the reasons why I like to see modern families is that Claire looks like my mother. I think everyone can see the shadow of mother in Claire. Mothers are stateless creatures, and they almost add that they are neutral. Haley always said Claire was a control freak, a control freak. But this is also the lovely place of Claire, and it is also a kind of protective desire.

Phil, professional real estate agent, dream magician. Phil has made good achievements in his career. He loves Claire and would never do anything wrong to Claire. He tried to please his father-in-law, but he always ran into a wall because Jay was tough. He and his youngest son, Luke, took all kinds of adventures. I always thought Luke was really happy to have such a father, who never stifled his imagination and creativity. Every time Luke has a very bizarre new idea and Claire rolls her eyes at it, Phil always shows great interest and patience and accompanies Luke to explore. I think this method of education is really valuable, especially for China people. Phil's attitude towards his two daughters is different from Luke's. He has a more caring feeling for his daughters. What impressed me more was the episode of Haley's infidelity. He couldn't accept it and felt that he had lost his little daughter. In fact, Claire already knows that philby Claire is even more unacceptable. It's really weird, isn't it? Father's feelings for his daughter and mother's feelings for his son are always different, and there is an extra spoil. Phil has one of the most sensitive points in his heart. He feels inferior, but he doesn't think he is good enough for Claire. He thinks she is beautiful and capable, with a rich father and a handsome boy chasing her. They only got married because they were pregnant with Haley. But a particularly touching passage, in fact, when he thought Claire would be better if she married another man, Claire told him: He never made me laugh. But I am always amused by your jokes. T^t· Phil is optimistic, caring for his family and full of enthusiasm for life, which just neutralizes the cold and introverted Claire. He is the best person for Claire.

Then talk about another couple, Jay and Gloria. Why do I play so much, or out of love!

=======================================================================

Jay, the owner of the cabinet company, is rich and powerful, but soft-hearted. His first marriage was unhappy, and then he met Gloria. Although they are very different in age, their marriage is very happy. He will like the surprise from Gloria, even though it was made with his money. He will take good care of Gloria and buy her Cinderella slippers when Disney Gloria can't walk in high heels. He is not very good at educating children, but he is their strong backing. He doesn't show his feelings very much, but there is a quiet river in his heart. He takes good care of Manny. Manny is not his own. He couldn't help calling Manny my child, encouraging him and tolerating all his quirks and "precocity". He was very hard on Phil, but thanked him for bringing happiness to his daughter. He and Stella, the French bulldog, are really cute, and they all dream about Stella in their dreams. Jay belongs to a tough guy who has nothing to hide, but he can't compete with his family's soft grinding and hard foam means!

Gloria is a Colombian, young, beautiful and kind-hearted. I especially like Gloria. When everyone thought she was a vase, she persuaded you with her own personality. She is beautiful and confident, and speaks English with a strong Spanish accent. He knows Jay. He can always make Jay young. She will ease Jay's relationship with several children in her own way, but she tells Jay, who is not good at words, that love is to be expressed. She has a way of educating Manny. She will encourage Manny to be himself and not worry about being different. As a girl, she always gives Lily, Haley and Alex a good guide. Even if Claire doesn't get along well at first, she will take the initiative to solve the problem and improve the relationship. How can such a woman not like it? What I admire most is that although she is in America, she attaches great importance to protecting the culture of her hometown. While exaggerating "blackening" her hometown, she will celebrate festivals and cook food in her hometown, worrying that Manny has forgotten Spanish and blaming Cam and Mickey for not understanding Lily's Vietnamese culture. In a word, Gloria is a beautiful woman with great ideas and high emotional intelligence.

Then say the last couple, Cam and Mitchell, gay couple. They are complementary models and can give full play to the advantages of the other half.

===================================================================

Cam, take care of the children at home and work part-time in various studies or theaters. Cam is always a little narcissistic and thinks he has good taste. He will prepare all kinds of gifts for Mitchell, such as the blue sweater that Mitchell threw out of the window because of too many thorns. He will say, "That color matches your eyes." That's so sweet. As for Mitchell, he is sometimes timid, but he is the opposite of Claire, but he loves Cam very much. To be honest, I really didn't know much about homosexuality before. After watching this drama, I realized how cute they are and how beautiful their feelings are. I remember that after gays in California could get married, their joy and the joy of proposing marriage were really touching. They can't have children, but they adopted a Vietnamese child, Lily, not far from Wan Li. Their love for Lily is enough to tell us how lovely, healthy and happy a child without a mother is in two fathers.

= = = = = = Next, let's talk about every child I like = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Haley, beautiful and popular, doesn't like reading. Beautiful Haley, like every adolescent, likes beautiful clothes, likes taking selfies and hates reading. She always worries her family, but in fact she has her own limits and life plans. She will carry forward what she is good at. She doesn't seem to care much about her family at ordinary times, but she shows concern for her family at every critical moment. In particular, she held a photo exhibition, which recorded small details of their family life, showing that she also attached great importance to family ties. Alex once said something like, "Sometimes I think you are really smart, as smart as a smart person." The subtitle group is translated as "really clever", which I think is quite appropriate. Every child has his own personality and his own life path. Not all children study hard, which is the only serious thing.

Alex, good grades, organized, unable to dress up, is always called a nerd. Claire said Alex looks like him. He looks like him. Once Alex was worried about finding a husband, Haley told her not to worry. She said that people like mom found the right one! Ha ha ha, yes, no matter what kind of person you are, someone will put up with you and fall in love with you. This is called everything has its vanquisher. Alex is under great pressure to study. He wants to do his best in everything. He feels humiliated when he wants to go to the dance, so he will pretend not to go, do things he doesn't like, and get close to those cool children. These are our childhood thoughts, very, very cute. When we grow up, we will laugh at the embarrassing things that make us feel ashamed and the sky is falling. Every stage of growth is the best.

Luke, the youngest son in the family, but his sisters didn't take much care of him. On the contrary, they will play with him, but this is a real family. In the fifth season, Luke grew taller, lost weight and changed his voice! When I was a child, I had curly hair and a chubby face. How cute. He has all kinds of strange ideas and his attention is always distracted, but as I said before, he has a good father who will accompany him to implement these strange ideas. When Claire is angry, he tries to be cute. Once he makes his mother angry, he will come back and apologize with roses, and his heart will melt. I always think Luke will be another Phil when he grows up. Although he was worried when he was a child, he will certainly have many advantages when he grows up.

Manny, chubby, not good at sports, likes to write poems and is precocious. He doesn't like anything that ordinary children like to do. But Manny is a thoughtful boy and has his own appreciation of all kinds of things. Perhaps influenced by Gloria, he also paid great attention to protecting the culture of his hometown at first. His relationship with Jay touched me the most. Jay gave him a lot of care that his romantic biological father couldn't, the kind of stable and persistent fatherly love. Once he went to visit relatives in Colombia, and when he wrote back, he also mentioned that Gloria should take good care of Jay. After the physical examination, I told him the result. Jay cried, so did I. T. He was also very protective and dependent on Gloria. After all, mother and son used to live together.

Lily, I love Lily! Grow more and more lovely, from time to time, always a burst of blood. There are too many small details in it. Just watching a play. As a Vietnamese child, her happiness always reminds me of other poor children. In the play, she was adopted and lived a happy and stable life. I have to think that if she hadn't been adopted ... of course, this is a drama without sadness, so let's not think about it for the time being.

Joe is still young, and I don't know if there is any hope to take over Luke's growing task and continue to be cute.

Stella, French bulldog, Jay's little daughter, Stella is an important member of the family, how can you not mention it? At that time, he was abandoned by his old master and adopted by Jay. Every time Gloria speaks ill of her, Jay always covers Stella's ear for fear that she will hear a little haha.

Wonderful performance. In fact, it can't compare with Friends or The Big Bang Theory. After all, it is mainly a family problem. But in terms of intention, I will definitely not lose these two plays. Don't be confused by the name, because it is boring. Usually I like to watch "A Good Wife" or "Criminal Psychology", and the pace is faster. But Modern Family is worth watching carefully. Although some life details and thoughts may not be heard, the emotions in them will definitely cause a lot of noise. As a drama, in order to highlight the personality of each character, there will be some exaggeration, but each of us will find our own shadow in it. The richest theme is actually in the most mundane life. I am deeply grateful to the creators and actors of this play. I hope more people like them. My hand is going to be broken, so I won't write yet.

Agree 22 against, and your name will not be displayed.

Zhang Peiwen, easy fat constitution is infinitely troublesome.

Bai Xiaoyu, Peng Zhihao, B Chen and others agreed.

Everyone in a modern family has their own personality characteristics.

Dad Jay is a typical American man who takes his daughter as his son. Not good at expressing your feelings.

Wife gloria. Jay's remarried wife is younger than Jay's daughter. I like Gloria's unpretentious beauty and am often amused by her simple thinking. "When my wife is angry, she pats her husband." hahaha.

Romantic style, Manny. Gloria's son. Young and mature. Love poetry and performance. Chubby, like an adult, super loving!

Claire, women and housewives. Jay's daughter. Simple and rude, just like her husband Phil. Very capable, take care of a family of three children and help Jay manage the company.

Phil Pisces. Claire's husband. I guess he must be Pisces! Love fantasy! Passionate and energetic! Good eloquence! Love your real estate manager career ~ ~ Luke's biological father! I also want to find an idiot husband like Phil to make me laugh every day ~

The eldest daughter, beauty Heley, studies badly, and the boys are super talented (completely opposite to Alex, okay? 233333). Once Phil fell off the stage, she showed eloquence and charm for her father to receive the award, and she will definitely achieve something in the future ~ The latest season was triggered by Miyoshi Nanny's brother ~ Let's get together and have a good time ~

Headmistress Alex. Alex, the second daughter, is the opposite of her sister. She has never been in love (? ) Now I am much fatter than before! It's funny to despise the whole family with IQ ~

Warm man Luke with ADHD. Oh, my silly Luke grew up and began to want to see girls naked and make out with them. Growing pains ~

The following are my favorites! Gay couple!

The poison house of the empress, although the Cam is very big, but the behavior is very small, haha! Mean, harmless, mean. I love jealousy and drama, and I like his petty expression best. Ah, ha ha ha ha ha!

Mickey, a sad and lovely man, Jay's son. Xueba lawyer, small doormat, sometimes small bad. I always encounter various situations, and all kinds of dramas finally marry Cam in the latest episode! Gifts! Yes! But the twists and turns are constant ~

Daughter Lily is too young to burst a classic line if she has nothing to do.

There are also all kinds of love resident supporting roles. Mr Nanny, the most angry piper, the nagging Didi, and the stupid Dylan. Everyone is so loving ~
