LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Nostalgia washed over the audience and Internet alike during the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards when the cast of 'Modern Family' reunited to present an award, transporting fans back to the hit sitcom's impressive 11-year run.

As the actors assembled on stage, their palpable chemistry and affectionate banter reminded viewers why they fell in love with the Pritchett and Dunphy clans in the first place, per HuffPost.



 

'Modern Family' cast reunites to present award for Best Comedy Ensemble

As they gathered to present the award for Best Comedy Ensemble, Ty Burrell kicked things off by saying, "This really brings back memories," which Julie Bowen echoed, highlighting the show’s impressive "250 episodes" during its tenure.

Ed O’Neill brought some friendly competition to the reunion, joking about his previous successful run on 'Married...With Children.' When Sofia Vergara mentioned that her new Netflix series 'Griselda' was a global hit, Eric Stonestreet jokingly called her out for shamelessly plugging her latest project.

But Jesse Tyler Ferguson admitted he gets "nostalgic for the golden days" of 'Modern Family,' even as they all pretended post-show life was just as rewarding.

Unable to keep up the charade, O’Neill bluntly interjected, "I didn’t want to get emotional up here, but you know what I miss most about it all? The money."

Ferguson immediately chimed in, "Is it too early to talk about a reboot?" He complained that his supposed "big Broadway career" never materialized and he had to park a mile away from the glitzy award show.

'Modern Family' had an illustrious run from 2009 to 2020, securing the Ensemble in a Comedy Award four times during its tenure. Alongside the 'Modern Family' stars, the casts of 'Breaking Bad' and 'The Devil Wears Prada' also graced the ceremony with their presence.
