Konstantinos and Helen

Konstantinos and Helen puts two very different people under the same roof because of a legal fight over the house they’re living in. Konstantinos is a buttoned-up university professor who keeps to routines and rules. Eleni is a lively bartender who loves spontaneity and creates chaos wherever she goes. Court orders force them to share the property while ownership is decided, and their clashing habits spark a stream of domestic arguments, awkward compromises, and comic misunderstandings. Friends and neighbors add to the pressure, and the show leans on the contrast between restrained formality and streetwise energy to generate humor, without giving away any major surprises about how their relationship develops.

The series debuted in 1998, directed by Kostas Lyhnaras and created by Charis Romas and Anna Hatzisofia. The cast is led by Eleni Randou and Charis Romas, with Maria Lekaki, Kallirroi Miriagkou, and Stergios Nenes in supporting roles.

Critics and viewers gave the show a mixed to positive reception, reflected in its 6.8/10 vote average from a small pool of votes. Reviewers tended to praise the chemistry between the leads and the sitcom timing, while noting that some jokes rely on familiar Greek TV tropes. Recurring themes include class and lifestyle clashes, gender roles within a shared household, and how personality differences create both conflict and unexpected warmth.

Within Greek television circles the series is often remembered for its memorable character pairings and the way its comic conflicts felt relatable to everyday domestic life. Fans of 1990s Greek sitcoms still mention the show when discussing that era, and the performances of Randou and Romas helped sustain their profiles in TV comedy.

There aren’t widely reported records of major international awards or high-profile nominations for the series. Its recognition has been more regional, tied to reruns, audience memory, and the later careers of its principal cast.
