'Modern Family's' Eric Stonestreet on Sofia Vergara: 'That really tested my ability to play a gay man.'

"Modern Family" has been MIA for the past couple weeks, but Korbi TV (and about 1400 other lucky people) were blessed with a screening of this week's (Mar. 3) episode at The Paley Festival last Friday. 

Now, I've already gushed about how brilliantly funny this "Fears" ep is, as I feel it could be the best half hour "Modern Family" has turned out so far. 

But I will repeat it once again: "Fears"? Brilliantly funny.

And that's saying a lot considering the other gems they've produced in this first season.

And, word is, the bar will continue to rise. 

In the clips below, I chat with Korbi TV's favorite "Modern Family" couple -- Eric Stonestreet (Cam) and Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Mitchell) -- who talk of the upcoming family trip to Hawaii, Mitchell doing physical comedy with a pigeon, Cam joining Dylan's band as the drummer (yes, Haley's boyfriend Dylan, mhmm) and a solid Stonestreet-Sofia Vergara (Gloria) team up.

"I go on a date with Gloria because I said a faux pas at a dinner party and I felt really bad about it," Stonestreet explains in the video. "So we go out for dinner, her and I together. That really tested my ability to play a gay man, spending a week with Sofia Vergara. I said if anybody sees any of my straightness ... that's gonna be the week to see it."

Great job as always cyclops lady!! (And cyclops lady's right hand woman!)

Korbi you are really a wonderful interviewer. Your conversations are so easy and natural and you are funny too. Modern Family is the best show on TV and I would be jealous that you were interviewing all these people except that you are so good at it that you just really deserve to be there.
