If you thought you saw a “Modern Family” star at a Salt Lake bar in the past few days, you probably did. Just not the one who’s a part-owner of the place.
“I actually stopped into Bar X on my way into set here last night,” said Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who stars as Mitchell Pritchett in the hit ABC sitcom. He’s been there before to visit his co-star, co-owner Ty Burrell (who stars as Phil Dunphy).
But Ferguson has been back in the state over the past couple of weeks for an entirely different reason. He’s the new host of an old show come back to life: HGTV is reviving “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” and the first two of 10 new episodes have been filming in the Ogden area.
