Oi Treis Harites (Greek: Οι Τρεις Χάριτες, The Three Harites) is a Greek comedy series created by Michalis Reppas and Thanasis Papathanasiou which aired on Mega Channel from February 8, 1990 to April 20, 1992. The name "Harites" was taken partly from ancient Greek mythology (The Three Graces) and partly from their surname, which was "Haritou".

The series describes the daily life of three single sisters in their middle forties who live in the same house.

Oi Treis Harites received positive reviews, becoming one of the most popular and successful programs ever shown on Greek television, achieving high ratings throughout its run. During the season 1989-1990 and 1991-1992 Oi Treis Harites was the most popular series in Greek television, making history reaching 65% according to AGB Nielsen Media Research on February 3, 1992. According to Mega Channel, the initial title of the series was "Anna and her Sisters".

The series was released in DVD from the magazine Tilerama in April 2010.

Three sisters Olga, Maria and Eirini around in the age of 45. Daughters of a judge, grown in one two-store house that now belongs to the youngest sister, Eirini. When Olga gets married and Maria does the same, they grow apart for about 20 years, until Olga gets widowed and Maria leaves her husband after his adultery. The sisters then, return to their family residence.

Season 1 consists of 22 episodes and begins with Maria trying to persuade Eirini to accept their other sister, Olga, at the house because Olga has to wait for her house to be built. Eirini unwillingly accepts, but in the middle of the first episode Maria announces that she is getting divorced from her husband and she is going to stay with her sisters. The whole season shows their life, the difficulties they face living all together again under the same roof, their constant problems with men and many other hilarious adventures. In the last episode of the first season, the three sisters are making plans for their vacations.

Season 2 consists of 40 episodes and it's the largest season. It begins with the three sisters having returned from their vacations and trying to attract a charming man living next door to them. The season continues with the sisters handling hilarious situations in each episode. In the 7th episode of the season, a big change happens. Olga's daughter, Teti, abandons her studies in London and comes to Athens. Initially, Olga, disagrees with her decision and tries to persuade her to go back to London, but soon she realises it is better to have Teti under the same roof. But there is one problem. Teti wants to have her own apartment, and then the conspiracies begin. The season ends with Olga and Maria leaving the house since Eirini is now in a serious relationship.
