Best: Sarah Hyland
This gothic look with the dark makeup and black dress makes her look a little like Carmen Electra, but the cinched in bodice and the interesting pleats make it work.

Kill Them Off in Plane Crash
On the way to one of their many sponsored-centric vacations (obviously to a Disney owned destination), Phil, Claire, Mitchell, Cameron, Gloria and Jay could tragically die in a freak accident. Given that by next season, Haley will be a legal adult, this can lead to a Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead-type of situation, where the kids fend for themselves. This could potentially work in ABC’s favor, as it’s ripe for a Jane By Design crossover as well.

District Modern Family
Tributes: Manny Delgado, Haley Dunphy
Special Skills: Manny’s got the brains of a 50-year-old poet, which may fool his fellow Tributes into thinking that he’s fragile. Haley’s got her competitors beat in the looks department. Lucky for them, Jay will have trained them both in scavenging for food and camouflage before they leave California.
Sponsor Gifts: Mistaking “weapons” for “lemons,” Gloria accidentally orders Manny several crates of the citrus fruit from Colombia. Phil, meanwhile, drops down some intense power-walking gear for his daughter.
Forecasted Gameplay: Although Manny is a moving target for masculinity-obsessed Careers, he’ll become a Rue to another player’s Katniss… but in the end, it won’t be enough. Haley, meanwhile, is too gorgeous and dumb for anyone to consider her a threat, and there’s a chance that the inner Claire in her will come out to wreak havoc. As long as she doesn’t accidentally eat something obviously poisonous, she might be all right.

1. ABC Milking Their Stars
Nothing says “American Music” like the stars of Suburgatory and Modern Family presenting awards and handing out trophies while they promote their series. If you had any inkling that ABC was absolutely tasteless in honoring musicians, watch Jenny McCarthy stand at the AMAs podium and talk about how awesome Ryan Seacrest’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve is going to be this year.
