A modern comedy is every sense of the word; this sitcom is shot in a mockumentary style and is a satirical look at three related families as they cope with all that life throws at them.

As with the other sitcoms in this list, itÂ’s all about the characters and the writing. You have to like someone before you can really laugh at them and Modern Family isnÂ’t afraid to spend time finding out what makes a character tick.
