Julie Bowen chimed in, reminiscing on the remarkable eleven seasons and 250 episodes, a feat they cherished.
Ed O’Neill couldn’t resist a witty nod to his past successes, quipping about his double triumph with “Married… With Children” and “Modern Family.” Sofia Vergara proudly boasted about her Netflix hit, “Griselda,” reigning supreme in 90 countries for a month, prompting Eric Stonestreet to jest about her inevitable mention of the show.
Amidst the laughter, Jesse Tyler Ferguson admitted to occasionally yearning for the glory days, only to half-heartedly acknowledge the perks of life after a hit series. However, O’Neill swiftly cut through the sentimentality, humorously confessing that what he truly missed was the hefty paycheck.
As the camaraderie continued, Ferguson couldn’t help but float the idea of a reboot, while Bowen teased him about his Broadway aspirations, prompting a playful exchange about the allure of television versus the stage.
