Hold On!!! Craig T. Nelson Turned Down Ed O’Neill’s ‘Modern Family’ Role??? | The Rich Eisen Show

[@samgerber4935]

Him forgetting Craig T Nelson is literally what Eric Stonestreet said with Ed O’Neil in a previous episode of Rich Eisen

[@popeye697]

Ed made a smart business decision on that one that's gonna payout overtime even more than Married with Children did. And he's still getting money from that show too

[@ScooterOnHisWay2024]

Great story told by a great story teller and a great dude.

[@pjtyson9280]

3:52 3:54 Rich needs to do like Carson used to do with Rodney Dangerfield. Once a year or maybe more than once, he would have Rodney on and he would be fantastic. That's what Rich should do with Ed O'Neill

[@qbert5806]

we'll get even later... and then we'll get ahead. A lot of wisdom in that approach. Reminds me of MJ's Nike deal.

[@kcp7042]

Ed and Craig up for the same roles…. Only Ed could be Dutch!! I don’t see Craig in that role!! Iconic!!

[@CoryDominic]

I could listen to Ed O'Neil talk for hours.

[@justina9137]

Al walks in. Peg! Audience cheers for 30 minutes and he has to wait for the audience to shut up so he could carry on with a scene. Then Kelly walks in. And another wolf whistles for 30 minutes. Annoying

[@funnywax]

Holy smokes Peg!!!

Craig T Nelson was great as Zeke Braverman

[@Chef-vg4pu]

I’ve always respected Ed. Everything that he’s ever done has been at least pretty good. I have a lot more respect for them today after watching this…. If you can read it and know that you have a hit and you’re gonna make money on the backend, well, that’s just good vision… And you had… you’re not the star he said.. but really he was, and I hope you made a lot of money. I’m pretty sure you did.

[@m.em.e4412]

if more people thought like that, we'll get the hit later . just make the deal

[@blarney9757]

Dutch!! GREAT MOVIE

I just screened pilot and haven't seen a TV show that talks to camera except for The Office right now...🙄. Good show but I know breaking fourth wall or talking to camera shouldn't be monopolized by one show but that's where it bothered me as was such a similar concept that I just couldn't get invested into this show whatsoever.

[@popeye697]

That's literally the only thing similar. Outside of that, it's a completely different show

[@jeffv3052]

@@popeye697 For me...I don't know why I just couldn't get over that. Like watching two comedy shows like that just wasn't for me. Just didn't like that and grew tired of this show right away. Same for Parks N Rec too. To each their own.

[@watchreport]

@@jeffv3052I think if you can get over that, you’ll enjoy it. Not every season is a mega hit but after 11 seasons I honestly felt (unlike the office) that the writing was really great and consistent and the show was great right to the end.

[@gheller2261]

I love Ed O'Neil, but my goodness I just cannot stand Modern Family. Of the less than 20 episodes I have seen, the ONLY time it was any good were the interactions between Jay and Manny.

[@Phil-w7u]

I. Wish more actors would turn down these roles against the nuclear family there are no normal family’s on tv or movies

[@scottstewart5784]

Claire and Phil were "nuclear" - married, living together, raising kids in the home, instillimg values. Mitch and Cam were married raising an adopted child. Gay people exist and make families. Gloria and Jay were also nuclear - married raising two sons. What the hell are you on about? The show has three families and because one is gay you have a problem? The hint was in the title - MODERN FAMILY.
