## Resource

This week, we’re diving into the sitcom classic Modern Family —the show that redefined what a “normal” family looks like on TV. From the Dunphys to the Pritchetts to the Tucker-Pritchett crew, we revisit why this mockumentary-style comedy became a cultural staple. We spotlight two standout episodes: the chaotic romance of season one's “My Funky Valentine” and the fan-favorite “Halloween” from season two, breaking down what makes them so memorable, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt. Then we draft our favorite non-traditional fictional families—the weird, unconventional, and unforgettable groups that prove family comes in all shapes and sizes.
