Cam & Mitchell’s Beso

Following Modern Family’s first season, which drew criticism from the LGBT community for failing to demonstrate any PDA between the show’s gay, campaigners set up the popular 'Let Cam & Mitchell kiss on Modern Family' page on Facebook. “We don’t quite get that controversy,” responded Steven Levitan, the show’s creator, to the controversy. “We think the vast majority of the gay community finds the Cameron and Mitchell depiction to be very positive. Here we are the first show on television to show a committed gay couple adopting a baby, raising a baby. It seems to me that there are better targets out there than us. That said, everything we’re doing is based on character and that very issue will be addressed next season. But it was our plan all along to do so.” Sure enough, in the second episode of the show’s sophomore season, aptly entitled “The Kiss,” Cam and Mitchell finally locked lips without any major pomp and circumstance, drawing praise from critics.
