What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, Modern Family stars Ed O’Neil, Julie Bowen, Ty Burrell, Sofia Vergara, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Eric Stonestreet, Sarah Hyland, Nolan Gould, Ariel Winter, Rico Rodriguez, Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, Jeremy Macguire, and Reid Ewing. The series revolves around the extended and blended Pritchett-Dunphy-Tucker clan. Jay Pritchett (O’Neil) sits at the head of the family and is married to his vivacious and younger second wife, Gloria (Vergara). Together, they raise their youngest son, Joe (Maguire), and Gloria’s college-age son, Manny (Rodriguez). Jay’s grown daughter is Claire (Bowen). She is married to Phil Dunphy (Burrell) and they have three older kids, recent high school grad Luke (Nolan Gould), college student Alex (Winter), and the eldest, free-spirited Haley (Hyland). Haley marries her on-again-off-again boyfriend, Dylan Marshall (Ewing), and they have twins together. Claire’s brother and Jay’s grown son is Mitchell (Ferguson). He and his husband, Cameron (Stonestreet), are raising their adopted daughter, Lily (Anderson-Emmons).

Telly’s Take
There’s no need to spend the 11th season of Modern Family wondering if the venerable comedy will be cancelled or renewed for a 12th season. ABC has already announced that season 11 is the end so that the creators can craft a proper farewell. Could there be a reunion or spin-off? I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on Modern Family cancellation or renewal news.

Modern Family have been such a loved ❤️ and reliable constant in our lives for so long, it really is with “such sweet sorrow” they depart
It got us through the ups & downs of our own lives as we shared the joys and sorrows of theirs.
My favourite show ever ❤️ I would definitely vote YES to renew this series!Love your Aussie viewers
Absolute best show, I am very disappointed to hear its over. One of the only good shown on netflix. It’s funny, romantic, sad and realistic.

That is absolutely ridiculous i love modern family it’s my life I lost my boys and this got me through it sort of until now why council its amazing i hope you get this comment thanks
Its hard to accept that its ending.. I miss my family.. But truly i dont want to accept that its actual ending.. I am gone miss this
This show has been on the top the past 10 years. It has dominated every chart possible with the ratings and views. Even at the end , i would still consider them to be in their prime. They have WAY more viewers than the majority. Ill never understand why creators ruin that chance for them to become like BBT.
Would love more episodes
Biggest fan would like it to get to 15 seasons
Time for this one to go !
