"All in the Family"

After watching an episode of "All in the Family", I couldn't help but notice the depiction of family life in the late '70s with that of a family sitcom today such as "Modern Family". However both illustrate various differences, for instance "All in the Family's" dialogue would  be considered offensive today especially in the matter of homosexuality. During the "All in the Family" episode Archie uses the terms "fag" and other derogatory words to describe his daughter's friend in a nonchalant way. In "Modern Family" those terms would never been thrown around because two of the main characters are gay. Yet, both of these shows are similar in that they are based around family life and the everyday issues they face.
The issue most prominently faced in the "All in the Family" episode is of homosexuality and how it wasn't accepted in those times. Moreover, if one were to "act" gay he would be ridiculed. On the other hand, "Modern Family" just goes to show how accepting today's audience is of homosexuals because they have two characters who are gay, married to each other, raising a daughter they adopted, and how they go by their day to day routines which I doubt would be shown in "All in the Family".
