It's late on a hot afternoon in August, and the producers of ABC's new comedy "Modern Family" are debating panties.

The data from ABC's attempt to build a comedy night : good ratings for Modern Family in its second week, a larger decline for Cougar Town, and the "Back To You Twins" - Kelsey Grammer's Hank and Patricia Heaton's The Middle - won't last long.
