Opposite the (top)heavyweight, Sofia Vergara, Julie Bowen routinely outperforms her and the rest of the cast, in a way more subtle way. You expect it from Vergara, Burrell and Stonestreet, and that's when she steals it.

I don't watch nearly enough TV to fill this out, but Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, Parks & Rec, and Community are my faves.
