Delta Burke Might be Heading to 'Modern Family' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Next season, ABC’s Modern Family plans to introduce the Tuckers, the down-home, fun-lovin’ country parents of Eric Stonestreet’s gay papa, Cameron. While Kathy Bates was once thought of for the role, Eric tells me, “her casting on The Office kind of made it not as exciting for us.” Now he’s campaigning for one of his personal faves: Designing Women veteran Delta Burke. “Wouldn’t she be great?,” asks Eric. “She possesses that sort of kind, Southern quality I think Cameron’s mom would have. And Delta seems like a real sweet lady.” The show’s creator, Steve Levitan, agrees, telling me, “We like that idea. We think that could be good.”
