The series premiered in Australia on 15 October 2015 on the Seven Network.[2] Although six episodes[3] were produced, the program was pulled from the broadcast schedule after low ratings for its debut episode. As of now, the Seven Network has plans to air the remaining episodes weekly on 7flix on Sunday afternoons at 5:00pm.[1] Episode 3 in the series, in which Powers convinced two heterosexual women they were lesbian lovers and legally married them, attracted criticism from Australian media watchdogs.
