ABC renews Modern Family for eighth season

ABC yesterday renewed Modern Family for an eighth season as the network announced early renewals for a number of its shows.

Modern Family joins ABC sitcoms The Middle, The Goldbergs, black-ish and Fresh off the Boat in receiving early renewals.

In recent years ABC had avoided offering early renewals to even its most popular shows. Following management changes at ABC Entertainment, the network not only broke with tradition by announcing early renewals but managed to leap frog other networks.
