ABC's Modern Family is a huge hit for its ensemble cast including Ty Burrell, and was just renewed for a second season. But Ty isn't used to the kind of fame that comes with 10 million people watching you on TV each week. "I have no context for success. I've been on TV shows that last 6 and 1/2 minutes!" he jokes. Ty plays a fearless but clueless dad who tries to stay hip and keep up with his kids, a role that came easily for the actor. "The part was - sadly or wonderfully - written for me in mind! I'm like alright? Interesting."

Rachael decides to see just how hip Ty really is, and challenges him to a new game where he is forced to think like a kid who knows all the latest text-messaging acronyms. Click on the video to see how he does!
