"Modern Family"
If you heard about a sitcom with a hot Latina mama who can barely speaka the English, a gay man who belts out Broadway show tunes and Ed O'Neill as the grumpy patriarch, "restrained" is probably not the first word that would jump to mind. But the writers of "Modern Family ... more" show great restraint: They take reality and tweak it maybe 30 percent, instead of the usual sitcom 60 percent (very scientific, yes?). That's why the characters have actual nuances and contradictions and surprises. That's why it's such a joy to watch.
