As a reviewer with a heart full of nostalgia for the golden days of Modern Family, I must express my deep disappointment at the recent revelation about the Cam & Mitch spin-off. Eric Stonestreet‘s emotional interview paints a vivid picture of the behind-the-scenes struggle to keep the beloved duo in the limelight.
It seems disappointing for “Modern Family” enthusiasts as the WhatsApp commercial this year might be the closest we’ll get to a spin-off or reunion. Contrary to speculations about an ABC-produced spin-off focusing on characters Cam and Mitch, it appears that idea has sunk without a trace. Since “Modern Family” ended its 11-season run on ABC in 2020, fans have been yearning for the show’s return in some shape or form; however, so far, nothing substantial has emerged.
According to a Deadline interview with Graham Bensinger, Eric Stonestreet publicly criticized ABC’s choice to cancel the proposed spin-off of the popular show “Modern Family,” specifically focusing on characters Cam and Mitch. When asked about the possibility of reuniting with Jesse Tyler Ferguson for this project, Stonestreet appeared pessimistic, saying, “I don’t think it’s potential anymore.” Later in the conversation, he shared his thoughts on what led to the demise of the potential new series. Here is a summary of his remarks:
Chris Lloyd and some other writers penned an excellent script that took Jesse and me on a journey through life in Missouri. However, their response was a simple ‘no.’ Essentially, they communicated that they had no interest in pursuing the project.
Stonestreet Detailed How ABC Hurt His Feelings
The proposed new series would’ve given more prominence to characters Cam and Mitch, along with their daughter Lily. However, it appears that one of the key reasons behind not proceeding with the project was a reluctance towards creating a spin-off simply for being a spin-off. In an interview, Stonestreet expressed his thoughts on this matter, saying “‘We had the right team in place. It would’ve been fantastic. If ABC had given the go-ahead, I believe we’d be running by now.’” Despite the Cam & Mitch series not getting produced, Stonestreet remains optimistic about a future reunion of the Modern Family cast, expressing interest in a holiday special.
Stonestreet isn’t the only Modern Family star expressing interest recently in bringing the gang back together. The actor’s former costar, Sofia Vergara shared her hopes for a return to Modern Family and revealed she’d die to be back on the set of the legendary sitcom. The America’s Got Talent judge’s comments, coupled with Stonestreet’s interview make it somewhat surprising the network would opt to vote against continuing the franchise in some capacity. Stonestreet admits in the interview that he understands ABC is a business, but that doesn’t change the emotional toll the rejection has had on him.
I’m deeply attached to my character and the series. I adore it, I adore Jesse, and our professional bond was exceptional, with an undeniable chemistry. It seemed like they might have perceived us as the veteran characters, which perhaps wasn’t considered valuable enough for continued development. This felt a bit discouraging. However, decisions in business are often made for various reasons.
