On January 31, 2009, it was announced that Greek would return for a third season, premiering on August 31, 2009. Twelve more episodes were ordered for late spring 2009 and aired beginning March 30. The series was moved from the Tuesday lineup to Monday nights. On May 1, 2008, ABC Family renewed Greek for a second season, premiering August 26, 2008.

The producers recognize that while it is a show about families, it is not necessarily for families, believing it is important that the authenticity of college life be portrayed, which includes the mature elements of that lifestyle.

Greek became an example of ABC Family's desire to change their image to appeal to the emerging generation of viewers. Citing "shows like Grey's Anatomy and Ugly Betty" that "were pushing the envelope comedically in one-hour format," Smith saw the idea working for a younger set. Show creator Patrick Sean Smith began the show as a spec script of a show that he "really wanted to see," noticing a lack of shows in an hour-long format following a comedic take on college life.
