Debuting on 12 February 2008, the program was hosted by Bernard Curry, brother of Stephen Curry (comedian), Stephen and Andrew Curry. The show centred on the Webb family, played by actors Rebel Wilson, Celia Ireland, Travis Cotton, Jody Kennedy, Julie Herbert and Glenn Butcher, who act as a fictional family in a house purpose-built with hidden cameras to capture their performances and those of the unsuspecting guests who get brought into the family's "web".
