The protagonist of this series is Zahos Doganos (Bezos) a rich ladies' man whose interests revolve around women and partying hard. Although he has a fiancee , Eleni , this doesn't seem to affect his hoity toity life. In fact we see him in every episode with a different female guest star that in most cases comes from his past.In few episodes we see him with huge name lists of the women he has dated in the past. He lives with his housekeeper Debora ( an African girl )who is his protegee. Zahos is completely against marriage , in contrast with some of the other main characters of the show. He also co-owns the "Doganos-Marikos" corporations along with his friend and associate Dimitris Marikos.One of their best clients is Iason Papapetrou who gets tricked all the time by Zahos because of his affection to him. One of Zahos' most favorite places for entertainment is bouzoukia, where he goes with either ladies or his friends and relatives ; actually in most episodes we see him sing too.

Zaho's friend and associate. He is a workaholic and he always try to advise Zahos , although Zahos never listen to him.He is often get teased for his weight either by Zahos or by Lili (girlfriend of Petrakis , Zahos' nephew and a secretary at "Donganos - Marikos corporations).In most episodes he appears to be single but he often shows up with his girlfriend Mara.He always gets mad with Zahos mostly because he never comes to the office and generally about his way of life although it's obvious that sometimes he envies him.

Debora (pronounced Thevora) is Ζahos' housekeeper. She comes from Africa and like all the other characters she get teased a lot for her skin color . She currently lives with Zahos and her main characteristic is that she pronounces all words and names wrong ; for example she calls Zahos -"Mr Zahous" , Eleni - "Ilini" and Papapetrou - "Papatreha" .Debora has a boyfriend, Ksenofon (she calls him Ksifounon) who appears in a few episodes but he doesn't like talking so he almost never speaks. The writers tried to make fun out of that by showing for example him and Debora talking on the phone .Debora likes bouzoukia like Zahos and she listens to Sakis Rouvas and other Greek singers .She only knows how to make spanakopita spinach pie, (in Greek it's spanakopita / σπανακόπιτα and she calls it "spakanopita" and everything that can be made with spinach something that often irritates Zahos.
