One of our absolute favourite shows of recent times here at The Big C HQ is Modern Family – every episode is like a comedy gold nugget shower and the acting is phenomenal.

Among the funnier characters in the show without a doubt, is Gloria – played with perfect comic timing by Sofia Vergaras. Admittedly, we were marginally less impressed when we realised she actually talks like that for real, but even so she’s pretty amazeballs.

If you’re not already a Modern Family junky, we recommend you check it out immediately – but brace yourself for intense addiction!

In the meanwhile, here are a few Gloria nuggets for you to feast your eyes and ears on. Enjoy!
