QUICK TAKES
ABC has ordered its first new series for the fall, “Modern Family,” a single-camera comedy that will look at family life from a different angle, as the lives of three families are explored through the lens of a Dutch documentary crew.
One is a traditional family with a working dad, homemaker mother and two kids; another is a gay couple who have just adopted an Asian baby; and the third is an older man married to a younger woman. The documentary crew also are characters in the show.
