This caused a lot of uproar in the community, with some people even starting a petition to have the show banned. The Sutherland Shire Council also spoke out against the show, saying it would give the area a bad reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite all the controversy, The Shire ended up being a ratings success for Network Ten.
