Great reporting. did you go to the university of cut and paste?
Suits messing with schedule orders = asshats
@Eric:
Perhaps you missed the Category of “Network TV Press Releases”.
Most of them are posted without comment because they are, frankly, worthless.
Ummm, Eric apart from the actual fact that ABC is tinkering with the episode there’s noting else much to report on….whats with the annoying comment; its sounds like something about of a cheesy 90′s cable sitcom one liner show. JEEEESH
The episode “Run for Your Wife” is about Jay and Gloria disagreeing about Mannys outfit on his 1st day back at school. Now the episodes are gonna be out of order since in this barbecue episode, they are already back at school. ABC has nothing better to do than play around with this show.
community and Lie to Me air alot of episodes out of order / change schedules all the time
My guess is they like Run for Your Wife better, and expect that it will have a chance at a boost thanks to increased lead-in from The Middle boosted by Charlie Brown.
When has reordering episodes ever worked in network TV? Granted, it is a sitcom with no continuing story per se, but still.
Considering how well Modern Family is doing, I’m surprised they would want to mess with it.
Why are they even doing this? We should not watch on purpose and show them how we feel about messing with the order of the episodes. So stupid!
hey eric…you don’t like it, start your own site.
only an imbecile would wactch “modern family.”
am i missing something? the show really blows.
i don’t like any of the characters. it’s just
a total waste of time. and it’s NOT FUNNY.
not at all. all of the shills in the media
claim that it’s hilarious but they are lying.
DP, if only imbeciles watch “Modern Family,” and you have watched “Modern Family,” then you are an imbecile. You’ve totally wasted your time. And then you used your time wisely by posting on the internet.
