Modern Family fans fell in love with the show's close family dynamic. However, the show's original storyline went in a different direction.
Modern Family drew fans into the Pritchett-Dunphy's family dynamic through its documentary style, but the show's original storyline almost ruined this. The series ran from 2009 through 2020 and featured an unknown documentary filmmaker following the not-so-traditional family. The Dunphy household looks pretty average on the outside, but when taken into their home, they present themselves much differently.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The dysfunctional family dynamic is what makes the show so enjoyable and adds to so many of its comedic moments. This is especially true when the extended family members of Jay Pritchett , Gloria Pritchett , Mitchell Pritchett and Cameron Tucker are added into the mix. However, there was originally a different mockumentary plan for Modern Family that would have tremendously shifted the show's theme.
The storyline is creative, but it takes away from what makes Modern Family so special. With an unknown filmmaker, the show makes fans feel like they're a part of the family. It resonates deeply with many viewers because everyone's family has something that makes them dysfunctional and unique. Seeing the complexity of Claire and Phil's family was refreshing for viewers when Modern Family premiered in 2009.
Modern Family's "Geert Floortje" Would Have Created A Story Problem Geert's inclusion would have complicated the show a lot. Modern Family would have had to examine the dynamic between Geert and the Pritchett family. Geert's former feelings for Claire and Mitchell's feelings for Geert could cause issues in the siblings' marriages, and this would be a complex topic to address.
The Geert storyline wasn't a terrible plan, and could've led to some interesting storylines. However, ultimately, it just doesn't fit well with the theme of Modern Family, and was best left out of the series. However, if the showrunners ever wanted to make another mockumentary-style series separate from Modern Family, it could be an entertaining route to go down.
