There are seven cast members throughout the series, with four performing each episode, using the same basic formula as the other versions of the show.[4] The ensemble cast include Rhys Darby, Cal Wilson, Tegan Higginbotham, Susie Youssef, Steen Raskopoulos, Bridie Connell and Tom Walker.[5]

On 10 November 2016, before the show's premiere, host Tommy Little jokingly announced a second season at a Melbourne-based media event without the permission from Foxtel executives. At the time the show had not gotten a formal renewal.[6]
