Shelley Long

Shelley Long and Matt Dillon on the 'Modern Family': What did you think?

Eighties icon Shelley Long, 61, is choosing her TV and movie appearances carefully these days, so it's always a treat to see her on our screens -- especially when she appears on the "Modern Family" as the inevitable pot-stirrer DeDe Pritchett, Mitchell and the Claire's mother.

This time, she arrives (backed by ominous music) with "Entourage" star Matt Dillon, who plays Robbie Sullivan, Claire's high school sweetheart. Apparently, when DeDe bumped into Robbie -- a limo driver -- she forgot to mention Claire's husband.

With a shaggy wig, an earring, and a 4-pack of fuzzy navel wine coolers, Dillon looks every bit the nightmare ex-boyfriend. We don't blame Claire for the copious amounts of wine consumed throughout the half-hour episode as DeDe and Robbie reminisce about Claire's misspent youth... or when she busts DeDe and Robbie in a limo makeout sesh.
