A popular TV series that focuses on rising property prices has been controversially taken off air.

Beijing Television stopped broadcasting Dwelling Narrowness (Wo Ju) from Nov 22, though other TV stations, such as Dragon TV based in Shanghai did not.

According to a report in the Oriental Morning Post, Jin Wenxiong, an official from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), said the government had not ordered the show to be stopped.
