* [[BannedInChina Banned in Victoria]]: The first season was banned in Victoria by way of a court order, as the trials of several people involved in the events depicted were underway at the time and there was an interest in preventing the jury being influenced and prejudiced by watching the show. Judge King went so far as to enjoy the attention for banning any media story based around the gangland killings. However, freak weather conditions in Tasmania sent the signal for episode 5 to parts of Victoria. Additionally, the ban was publicised quite a bit by media outlets, [[StreisandEffect sparking even more interest in the show]]. Eventually in 2008, heavily edited episodes of the show were aired in Victoria. Whole scenes were cut out. In maybe the craziest bit of editing, actor Robert Mammone, who played Tony Mokbel, one of the keys figures, had his face ''pixelated''. That's right. '''They scrambled an actor's face just because the guy he was playing was still on trial.''' Eventually, the series aired uncut in Victoria in 2011, but the Blu-Ray/DVD boxset still can't be sold there.
