Another way to see the American family: Modern Family series

Just few weeks ago the series called Modern Family has started in the Fox channel and the focus of the discussion is how the relationship are going on the American family.

This series had been awarded in lots of categories in the last Emmy Cerimony, so it is such a success because of the funny way to approach subjects like how to deal with some issues in a family, for instance:

- the teenager daughter who started dating an older guy

- the gay brother who is married and just has adopted a baby from Vietnam

- the new father`s wife from Colombia who is nearly 20 years younger than him and unbelievably gorgeous.

There is nothing really new in those characters, especially if you compare to other famous series “Brothers & Sisters”. The main difference between Brothers & Sister and Modern Family, is the genre. The first one relates family problems in a dramatic way while Modern Family is comic and light.

According to the Emmy Awards, Modern Family is a good choice nowadays in the American TV. In my opinion, it is very worth dedicating 30 minutes of your time to watch this interesting series. So, go ahead and tell me afterwards what was it like, deal?
