Karen, I LOVED "Modern Family", did you? Wendy and I were watching Dancing with the Stars (a long held tradition - she comes across the road to mine, and we have wine and watch DWTS). We stayed together afterward to watch Modern Family and nearly fell on the floor laughing. Definitely my type of humour. We also watched "Cougar Town" afterward, which was dreadful, or so we though.
I also love Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men (how do they get away with what they get away with on that show? Thank heavens they do!). I have never heard about "Better off Ted" but I'll keep an eye posted.
