In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to celebrate rare back-to-back victories for Manchester United! They analyse the late win in the Europa League vs. Rangers and then try and find things to analyse in a pretty dour game vs. Fulham. They also chat about the latest Marcus Rashford news, and look at the latest transfer news.
The first scene is hilarious, the dude bringing out the baby to a Lion King theme 
The Valentines Day epi?
no I believe that's in the very first episode when Cam introduces the baby to the family?
He is surely the greatest gay character ever. Cracks me up beyond belief some times. (queue gay jokes)

Loving this show, this and The Middle are the best two sitcoms on network telly right now
* The Office is unwatchable now it's so bad.

The Office is actually good this season, I can't believe they're continuing once Carrell leaves though, I'm definitely done when he's done.
The Middle is rubbish.
The Middle is rubbish.
I kind of find it intolerable with him now, especially with Holly. I always look forward to the others, ie. creed and kevin.
And that lion king scene was jokes, after Mitchell was arguing with his family.
When Luke goes in the old neighbors house who gets oxygen via a nasal cannula he holds his breath because he doesnt think there is any O2 in thereI thought that was great too
Me and Mrs. 77 were guffawing at that one.
Summer sucks. I want Modern Family to come back.
Two episodes from Season 3 were out yesterday (Not sure if they were really out yesterday but thats when I saw them).
Anyway, I'm glad to say they were still fun to watch. Great show this!
Lilly has grown so much!!!

Yeah they were very funny. Was great to see Ty Burrell win the Emmy, he's the funniest man on TV right now. Although Cam is hilarious too!
Still one of the best sitcoms on tv, even the kids are funny.
Ty Burrell is easily the funniest guy on that show. But they are all funny in their own ways. Great TV show.
I wouldn't say "easily". Jesse Tyler Ferguson is great too
I thought the first season was funny, I'm getting a bit bored of it now though. Every week seems to be the Gay couple trying to outdo each other in some way, having a minor tiff and then making up and it's got a bit stale. It's all about Phil and the big breasted columbian for me.
I think the third season is the funniest season so far especially with the fourth episode, Door to Door. I got into this show last weekend and I am already caught up. Ty Burrell is freaking hilarious and I think he is the funniest character on the show.
No he is not. He is openly gay while Cam is not gay.
I've seen Cam in a film recently playing a very straight tough guy
Yeah Cam is not gay is real life but Jesse is.
And what about Manny?!
I'm finding Season 3 is so much better. Far more laugh out loud moments imo.
Yeah, I think that it is getting a bit stale. The jokes are a bit too obvious and it lacks that spark it had in the first season.
That hand-shake dance thing in the before last episode was epic.
By far the best US sitcom around at the moment. Superbly plotted, scripted and acted.
Hilarious still, in my opinion.
Phil and the stun gun this week
Oh and Hayley, the older she gets the less guilty I feel about how hot she is. This week

My problem is that its overtly formulaic.
It is a true US sitcom but that is its strength as long as you don't expect anything else.
Its a lot more formulaic than most:
- put the family into 3-4 groups and send them to side adventures
- each group should have an inside conflict
- there is a family gathering where it becomes obvious that every little conflict is based on the same problem, dividing the family
- someone oversteps his/her problem and the family rejoices as the conflicts resolve.
- someone makes an astute observation.
Dont get me wrong, I like it a lot, but lately I got tired of it a bit.
Oh and was I relieved when I found out Hayleys age!
agreed. if there were poor actors and no eye candy it'd be unwatchable.
I wouldn't go that far, but it's definitely gone stale due to every episode being very similar. The Phil Dunphy character saves it for me, much like the Sue Heck character makes The Middle watchable.
alright. I don't watch a lot of TV so when I do I expect more (or too much?)and MF is not working as much for me anymore.
30 Rock was also very good but haven't seen that for ages.
Hot in Cleveland is crap imo but my wife likes it.
the one with Christina Appelgate: only seen one or two but it's not that good.
so......hoping MF picks it up soon.

The League, watch it if you've not seen it. Trust me on this.
Modern Fam is still good.

Fantastic episode yet again, I honestly don't think there has been a bad one!
Last night's new episode was great. The last line in particular.
Sky have really meddled with the continuity of showing new episodes in the UK. I've seen the whole 1st series, but then they decide to randomly show new episodes, old episodes, new episode repeats.. I really have no clue what I have seen and what I have not. It's a great show though. Sort it out Sky.
I think there has been a big decline in season 3 personally.
Phil has basically carried the show at times.
Can't be a bad thing, he is my fave character by far
