As a long-time fan of Julie Bowen and her exceptional portrayal of Claire Dunphy in Modern Family, I’m absolutely thrilled about her latest endeavor – starring in and executive producing the new NBC comedy Taste. After calling ABC home for 11 years with Modern Family, it seems like Bowen is moving to a whole new neighborhood over at NBC!
The cast of “Modern Family” continues to stay active even years after the ABC sitcom ended in 2020, with Julie Bowen particularly busy. Known for her role as Claire Dunphy, Bowen may occasionally reconnect with her former TV family, but she has been consistently working on various projects. Notably, she will be reprising her role as Virginia Venit in the upcoming sequel of “Happy Gilmore,” and this is just one of the numerous projects she’s involved in. Additionally, she is transitioning to a new network for a fresh sitcom, which I find intriguing.
The award-winning actor will not only star in but also serve as an executive producer for the upcoming NBC comedy titled “Taste.” Currently under development, this series is being developed by writers and executive producers Justin Shanes and Nedaa Sweiss, as reported by Deadline. The story of “Taste” centers around staff members at a long-standing food magazine in the Bay Area who find themselves working for a tech mogul from Silicon Valley after their company gets acquired. With Bowen’s traditional editor character butting heads with a hip TikTok chef, it’s only natural that tensions would rise.
The show “Taste” is being developed by Executive Producer Bowen, through her production company Bowen and Sons (in collaboration with President Rachael Field and “Top Chef” judge and EP Gail Simmons). At this point, the series has not yet been commissioned, but it’s shaping up to be quite intriguing. With Bowen on board, it’s unlikely that the project won’t progress further given the popularity of workplace comedies.
The flavor of Bowen’s newest network sitcom is reminiscent of “Modern Family,” marking her first comedy series since then. However, she has shown a more dramatic side on-screen in the comedy horror-thriller “Hysteria” (available for streaming with Peacock subscription). It appears that she had a favorable experience with this platform, as evidenced by her current collaboration with its corporate entity.
It’s quite intriguing that Julie Bowen, who played on ABC for 11 years with Modern Family, might find herself in a new residence at NBC. At this point, it doesn’t appear as if Bowen will continue playing the same Mom role, and she remains committed to comedy, which is beneficial for her. The series Taste seems promising, especially since there’s potential for Bowen’s character to venture into the TikTok world.

The upcoming series “Taste” is NBC’s newest comedy endeavor. Shows like “St. Denis Medical,” a mockumentary, and Reba McEntire’s sitcom “Happy’s Place,” which are set to premiere in 2024, have been scheduled, but it remains undecided if any existing shows will be canceled or rescheduled to accommodate “Taste.
Even though Modern Family has been running for quite some time, it continues to be cherished by fans. It’s considered one of the greatest sitcoms ever made and will likely remain so in the future. Julie Bowen’s character, Claire Dunphy, might have portrayed a strict TV mom, but her and the entire family remain as beloved as ever.
Although it’s been five years since the final episode, I still find it challenging to envision the cast in new roles. Details about the upcoming show Taste are scarce at the moment, but we might learn more as we approach the decision of NBC regarding its production. Regardless, the anticipation will surely be rewarding.
