Greg Poehler is married to a Swedish woman in real-life, named Charlotta Poehler.
Greg Poehler has said in an interview that the early scene where Bruce refuses homemade cinnamon buns, and is surprised by the shock of Emma's family is based on a true story. He claimed that he has later forced himself to tolerate cinnamon after moving to Sweden, and that he has been forgiven by his mother-in-law.
Greg Poehler speaks Swedish, even though he has said in interviews that he is a little nervous about doing them (interviews) in Swedish.
Amy Poehler, Greg Poehler's sister, appears in the show. She plays herself as an awful, but famous client Bruce had as an accountant.
The show had American and Swedish writers, which makes the show funnier to more people, since American humor and Swedish humor generally differ a bit.
