"Modern Family" ("Modern Family" - 2009)
Three families connected by Patriarch Jay Pritchett navigate modern life in completely different ways. Jay - an old-school older man - is married to Gloria, a much younger passionate Colombian, and raises her youngest son, Manny. Her daughter Claire is married to Phil Dunphy - an avid real estate agent trying to be the "cool" dad - and together they raise three teenage sons with opposite personalities. His son Mitchell is in a relationship with Cameron Tucker - an outgoing and dramatic man - and together they adopt a Vietnamese baby girl named Lily. The three family cores constantly cross each other in comical situations that explore what it means to be a family in the 21st century - with its contradictions, imperfections, and unconditional love.
Fun fact:
The series won the Emmy for Best Comedy Series five years in a row - from 2010 to 2014 - a record no other comedy series had achieved since Frasier in the 1990s.
The fake documentary format - where the characters speak directly to the camera - was a last-minute decision the creators made during preproduction of the pilot because they wanted the show to feel different from any other family comedy on television.
And Sofia Vergara was cast for the role of Gloria after a single audition - creator Steven Levitan said she walked into the room and in 30 seconds they couldn't imagine anyone else in the role. The most successful Colombian actress in Hollywood landed the role of her career in half an hour.
