I’m watching Modern Family for the third time in my life! In the first time, I watched until season six totallly in portuguese; in the second, i watched all over again and finished in english with captions in portuguese, and now, i’m watching without captions. I could understand completely a great part of the scenes, but i thought i’d be better at listening... 

In the first episode, we met every part of this Modern Family: the “first” Pritchetts (Jay and his new wife and stepson: Gloria and Manny), the Pritchetts (Mitchell, Cameron, and now, Lily) and the Dunphys (Claire, Phil, Haley, Alex and Luke). I remembered everyone who watches the show for the first time thinks that it will be about three different families, but in the end, we realize they are all from the same family. What a good surprise! I wanted to forget everything to feel this for the first time again... but feel the nostalgic while i’m seeing all the characters in the beginning was so nice and funny, because all the kids are so young and the adults are... not in their best appearance.

I just love the chaos of this episode: Haley bringing home her first boyfriend, Phil shooting everyone accidentally, Mitchell giving a speech on the plane because of misunderstanding, Gloria screaming at the football game and Manny totally in love... So fun -- and cringe, I had to close my eyes in some parts!

And a nice curiosity that I just discovered some time ago: the actress who plays Claire is pregnant on this episode, so if you pay attention, the character is always covering her belly with objects and people, but you can notice the big belly for some seconds in a lot of scenes. I never realized it by myself in another times i’ve watched the show!
