“Modern Family” Season 11 will indeed be happening although the contract negotiations of the casts are still being ironed out. Sofia Vergara, Julie Bowen, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Ed O'Neill, Eric Stonestreet, and Ty Burrell are currently in talks with the show’s producers to continue their respective roles.

All the six main casts previously bumped their salary higher two years ago as they reportedly earned $500,000 per episode with additional pay coming from the series’ backend. According to Deadline, the abovementioned stars would roughly be getting the same paycheck in “Modern Family” Season 11. And since the eleventh installment is rumored to have 18 more episodes, the cast will be reaping in more cash once they signed on the dotted lines.

Following the adult cast’s negotiations, the producers would then discuss contract agreement with the younger ensemble of the show who have now grown to be young adults. Sarah Hyland, Ariel Winter, Nolan Gould, and Rico Rodriguez are said to be in the early stages of the negotiation and the exchange is going swimmingly so far. In the past, the previous installment is thought to be the last one for the family-oriented comedy but now “Modern Family” Season 11 is touted to cap off the series.

Right now, it’s still unclear what show creators Christopher Llyod and Steven Levitan are planning for the eleventh installment as they too are negotiating their respective contracts. Both creators are reportedly willing to involve themselves in “Modern Family” Season 11 with the producers bringing back the main writing staff of the show as well.

The comedy series is one of ABC’s highest rated show and it’s this fact that heavily influenced the decision to push the show for one more installment. “Grey’s Anatomy” and “The Conners” are the only show that is outperforming “Modern Family,” which is a tell-tale sign at how successful the series is. The previous installment saw a lot of heartwarming and tear-jerking moments for the comedy series and it’s expected that “Modern Family” Season 11 will be the same. The latter part is especially true since the show will be coming to a close, ending the Dunphy-Pritchett-Tucker story after being on air for more than a decade.
