Q1. Some 20- 25 years ago adults were presented as fashionable as today's generation. Of course fashion has changed from then to now If I have to talk about the mentions TV shows, one thing can be sure that, it is probably the most realistic situation Monday i have ever seen and the potryal of all adults are so bang on. Their characters, fashion,comdey is applicable to any functioning family and everyone can relate to their characters their problems and their situation.

Q2. No not at all. They have all been portrait like any of the young generation of modern era. Some older adults have re marry in the mentioned programmes still they are having a great relationships with their ex husband/wife and children. There style and fashion sense can give competition to any of the modern generation.

So in my opinion the adults did not conform to our stereotypes of aging, rather they were cool enough.

Q3. Well the mentioned program has portrayed ageing in a very positive way. For example in "mo dern family" the series offers an honest, often-hilarious persp8of family life. Jay Pratchett (character name) is in his second marriage and try to maintain a healthy relationship with his wife. Like this maker has tries to represent all the older characters in very funny and moder way.

Q4. Well how realistic it is? It can't be determined, it vary from person to person, depends upon how one has viewed his/her family members.

In my opinion the potryal of aging is very much realistic and since in the mentioned series many of the scenes are inspired from real life instances of the maker.
