The Australian Communications and Media Authority as said that Channel Seven breached the Commercial Television Industry Code of Practice when it aired episodes on February 21st, March 23rd and March 26th which featured pole-dancing and sex talk which it deemed were too saucy for their "G" classification and should have been rated PG.

The ACMA determined the pole-dancing scenes in the episodes contained "visual depictions of sexual behaviour, that their impact was higher than very mild, and that the episodes were not suitable for children to watch without supervision".

Seven has advised ACMA it will take more care in future.
