Told from the perspective of an unseen documentary filmmaker, ``Modern Family'' offers an honest and frequently hilarious look at the complexity of family life. Parents Phil and Claire yearn for an honest, open relationship with their three kids, but a teen who's trying to grow up too fast, another child who's too smart for her own good, and a rambunctious young son make it challenging. Jay and his much-younger wife are raising her son together, but people sometimes mistake Jay for his wife's father. Meanwhile, partners Mitchell and Cameron have just adopted a child from Vietnam, which poses a completely different set of challenges.
