In the new season, Jay (Ed O'Neill), who just celebrated his 65th birthday, and his wife Gloria (Sofía Vergara) welcome the birth of a new life. Jay is worried about the gender of the child, and his stepson Manny is secretly worried that he may be neglected. Claire (Julie Bowen) and her husband Phil (Ty Burrell) reluctantly sent their eldest daughter Haley to college. Seeing that their second daughter Alex and their youngest son Luke are about to grow up, the couple began to plan their life in the world of two people a few years later. Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and his gay lover Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) also sent their adopted daughter Lily to kindergarten. They bought a cat to accompany Lily, and Cameron, who had been unemployed at home, was finally able to return to his beloved job. The video record story of a warm and big family has come to the fourth season. With the growth and changes of the three families, I believe this series will go further.
