MTV originally ordered eight episodes of the series but on April 23, 2007, the series was pulled off the air with reruns in its place. The four unaired episodes were never shown.[2]
Kaui posted on her Myspace that MTV had planned to finish the series off but executives decided against it due to the low number of viewers watching the series.
