If you ever happen to be in Los Angeles, make sure you visit The Grove, because, you never know who you can run into.

Take today for example. The entire cast of ABC’s hit comedy, Modern Family, completely took over parts of the popular shopping center to shoot several scenes for an upcoming episode.  

The episode was surprisingly being directed by Adam Shankman, best known as choreographer and judge on So You Think You Can Dance, but who has also worked on such films as Hairspray, Deuce Bigalow and Catch Me If You Can.


Despite the fact that the cast and crew had worked all day, they were all amazingly sweet, extremely interactive with the crowd gathered to watch them and even took the time to talk with the fans and even take some pics! I heart this show.


Here are some pics of the cast:

Twins Jaden and Ella Hiller (Play Baby Lily) with me

This is one scene they shot which required the cooperation of the twins who play Baby Lily. Both twins were crying and shooting had to stop until one of the twins could be consoled long enough to shoot the scene. WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW AS IT SHOWS THE SCENE WHEN MITCH RUNS INTO HIS EX!!  It’s no other than, Mary Lynn Rajskub – She played Chloe on 24 

In this scene, Jesse Tyler Ferguson sees something that obviously shocks him, but we have no idea what it could be….guess we all need to tune into Modern Family, Wednesdays, to find out!
