With contract renegotiations for THE BIG BANG THEORY cast all but finalized, our thoughts now turn to our favorite fictional family. Considering it took months of secretive behind-the-scenes negotiations to secure deals for the five stars of the hit CBS sitcom, just how on earth is Twentieth Century Fox TV going to handle the cast of MODERN FAMILY?
