In terms of Modern Family, the pending $52.4 billion Fox-Disney deal is expected to play a larger role in talks between ABC and 20th Century Fox Television about whether the Emmy-winning comedy will run beyond its upcoming 10th season. Co-creator and co-showrunner Steve Levitan previously said was the “plan is to end it at 10,” though that was before producers 20th Century Fox Television were poised to become a Disney property should the deal close as expected. That would eliminate one of the biggest obstacles to the show’s renewal, with ABC no longer left to pay a sizable licensing fee to 20th TV for the series. What’s more, it would incentivize ABC to renew the star-studded comedy for a potential 11th season and boost its own bottom line.

Do you want Modern Family to continue beyond its previously-announced 10th and final season? Or should the sitcom maintain its plan to end before Season 11?
Bert Benevento says
It’s done. Stopped watching last season.

I’m still watching, but more out of inertia than anything. I wouldn’t miss it were it cancelled.
