Modern Family - Fears, 1.16

I really enjoyed this episode. I don't think there's been an episode yet where I haven't teared up at least a little bit. The voiceovers, corny as they may be, are killer...

• I wonder, though, if the last-two-minutes-voiceover is a crutch they couldn't abstain from for a few episodes. I can definitely see it getting old quickly. I'm sure some people already are tired of it (I'm not, I'm a sucker for comedies with an overly sappy emotional side. See: Scrubs).
• The opening sequence was wonderful, with Manny of course being very mature and telling the camera (oh, MF documentary format. You can be so problematic.) that his greatest fear is dying alone. So adorable.
• As cute as Manny was, I think my favorite storylines centered around the Dunphy family. The boys were too cute, and I really liked Alex this episode. Claire dancing was adorable too.
• The giant panda in the room was also hilarious. Loved seeing Mitchell and Cam freaking out in different ways about Lily's first word.
