Despite the Floridian setting, no filming actually took place in Florida. (The fictional Key Mariah was played by countries like Mexico, Israel, South Africa and Mauritius).Although Sweating Bullets was a moderate success in the US and UK due to airing late night, it became a massive success in Serbia where it aired in primetime - Serbians saw the sunshine of Key Mariah as a fantasy to get away from real life, same reason why Neighbours and Home and Away succeeded in the UK. (Rob Stewart didn't know how successful Sweating Bullets was in Serbia until he saw a Facebook group about his character).</blockquote>
