Season One

Synopsis: Shot mockumentary style, this comedy follows the kinship of the Pritchett clan, led by patriarch Jay (Ed O'Neill), whose much younger wife, Gloria (Sofía Vergara), has a son, Manny (Rico Rodriguez), of her own. Jay's daughter, Claire (Julie Bowen), is married to real-estate agent Phil Dunphy (Ty Burrell), and they're the parents of two daughters, Haley (Sarah Hyland) and Alex (Ariel Winter), and son, Luke (Nolan Gould), though Phil's endearingly immature side often makes Claire feel she has four children instead of three. As Season 1 begins, Jay's son, Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), has just adopted a baby girl from Vietnam with his partner, Cameron (Eric Stonestreet), but they're not quite sure how to break the news to the rest of the family. Guest stars in Season 1 include Fred Willard as Phil's dad; Benjamin Bratt as Manny's absentee father, Javier; and Shelley Long as DeDe Pritchett, Jay's ex-wife and mother of Claire and Mitchell.
