You weren't the only one whose sister forced you to watch "Little House on the Prairie"

The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences hosted "An Evening with Modern Family" on March 3rd. Short interviews with the show's ensemble on the press line are now posted on the Archive's new page for Modern Family. Hear Ed O'Neill comment on how he wasn't looking to do a sitcom, but the writing was too good to pass up; Sofia Vergara talk about the camraderie on the set; Julie Bowen say how Modern Family reflects her own family.

Plus, don't miss: show co-creator Steve Levitan and cast members Ed O'Neill, Sofia Vergara, Julie Bowen, Ty Burrell, Eric Stonestreet, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Sarah Hyland, Ariel Winter, Nolan Gould, and Rico Rodriguez talk about the shows they grew up watching. Who was forced by their sister to watch Little House on the Prairie? Who said she cried the day Married with Children... went off the air, even though she wasn't born yet-- must have been the re-runs! Who said they watch Modern Family every week, sometimes multiple times?
