Modern Family

"Chris and I are both strong, opinionated people, and we very, very quickly realized it doesn't make sense to sit here and debate each other and waste time," Levitan told The Hollywood Reporter in 2012.

Modern Family was picked up for syndication by USA Network for $1.5 million per episode, along with being offered in local syndication at the same time, with Fox Television Stations the lead station group picking up the series.

The network additionally obtained the syndicated strip-rights to the show when they became available.

Subsequently, it moved to Global for its eleventh and final season.

Lloyd and Levitan, whose credits both include Frasier, Wings, and Just Shoot Me!, are executive producers of the series, serving as showrunner and head writer under their Lloyd-Levitan Productions label in affiliation with 20th Century Fox Television.

Starting with the second season, Lloyd and Levitan ran the show, not as a team, but separately, with each showrunner supervising half the episodes.
