The show was first shown on 12 May, and was the fifth most watched television show in that week in Australia. Overall, it averaged 1.3 million viewers in its run of eleven episodes. The three "angels" travelled in Alfa Romeos performing deeds such as decorating a nursery for a young couple with newborn children, and finding a replacement puppy for children whose dog had been stolen. It was widely panned by media critics, with the Sydney Morning Herald television critic Ruth Ritchie declaring it "the worst show in the history of the world".
