The series used an original song, called "Μοντέρνα Οικογένεια" (Moderna Oikogeneia/Modern Family), by the Greek band "BURGER PROJECT". In the first few episodes, the whole song was used as the opening/ending theme. A shortened, no-vocals version was later used for the intro sequence. The ending credits always featured the whole song with vocals.
The show ended after just two seasons, due to low ratings. There are a few differences from the original plot. Carmen (Gloria) gets pregnant, and so does Fay (Claire), ruining her 6-year plan. Danae (Haley) and Petros (Dylan) move in together, after she gets admitted into university (much to her parents' surprise). Lambros (Cam) and Dimitris (Mitch...
•Moderna Oikogeneia appears to be the only adaptation where the main characters and their descriptions are kept intact, except for Lambros (Cam) and Dimitris (Mitchell) adopting Lily from London, rather than from Vietnam.
•It is mentioned that Dimitris (Mitchell) has U.K. citizenship, as he lived there for several years. This is probably why Lily was adopted from London.
•There's a running joke in the series (especially in Season 1); most people mistakenly say "Chazopoulos" instead of "Chatzopoulos" when referring to Philippos (Phil). "Chazo" (χαζό) means dummy in Greek.
•Lambros (Cam) and Dimitris (Mitchell) never kissed on camera. In the adaption of "The Kiss", their "kissing" is hidden by Takis (Jay), who turned to the camera while covering his eyes with his hand. Just a few scenes earlier, he had pointed out that if the couple kissed in front of the camera, they would get into trouble with the ΕΣΡ (Greek National Council for Radio and Television).
•While her character is Colombian, Klelia Renesi is a Greek actress and only knew Italian. Her friend, Giorgos Kapoutzidis (famous Greek actor), helped her learn Spanish, as he is a fluent Spanish speaker himself.
•Petros appears in various episodes that Dylan hadn't appeared in the original series.
