Q: I recently watched the series Sofia Vergara starred in about a female drug lord, and it made me wonder if Julie Bowen is also doing something now that Modern Family is over? — A.E.

A: It’s been four years since the smash-hit sitcom Modern Family ended, but Bowen has been selective with her next series commitment.

A premiere date hasn’t been announced yet, but the highly anticipated series recently added Garret Dillahunt (Raising Hope) and Nolan North (Pretty Little Liars) to the cast.
