Eric Stonestreet Reflects on ABC's Rejection of 'Modern Family' Spinoff

The actor describes the decision as 'hurtful' and believes the series would have been a success.

Eric Stonestreet revealed that ABC rejected a spinoff series focusing on his 'Modern Family' character, Cameron, and his TV husband, Mitchell.
The proposed series, backed by co-creator Chris Lloyd, was set to follow the couple's new life in Missouri.
Stonestreet expressed that the decision was emotionally painful for him, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, and Chris Lloyd.
He believes the spinoff would have been successful due to the involvement of key original creators.
Despite the rejection, Stonestreet remains open to future 'Modern Family' reunions, including a potential Christmas special.
