The show was often in the headlines due to its graphic crime scene re-enactments which many deemed too distressing for the show's 7:30pm Monday timeslot.

After the Seven Network cancelled the series in early 1999, the Nine Network created their own version of the format later that year. It was unsuccessful and cancelled after six weeks.
