‘Modern Family’: Co-creator Steve Levitan
Co-creator Steve Levitan, one of the brilliant men behind “Modern Family,” talked to Zap2It at PaleyFest 2010:
MODERN FAMILY vs. PARENTHOOD
Will Parenthood become the family of choice for the TV audience? Will you stick to Modern Family or finally discover “The Middle” ? With the end of the Olympics in sight, which family will win your heart?
Here is some info about the new family “Parenthood”:
It was once a feature film and then a television series that was quickly canceled but a decade and a half later inducted into the “Brilliant but Canceled” series. Now NBC is giving it a go once again. Brought to millions of televisions across the country (or so the network hopes), Parenthood features an all-star cast of television veterans who are playing one big, happy, colorful and somewhat dysfunctional family.
