Partly that but I'd guess more that it was seen in the industry as the little leagues for future celebrities. Off the top of my head these all had their start in the show:

Kylie Minogue
Jason Donovan
Chris Hemsworth
Margot Robbie
Russel Crowe
Guy Pearce
Alan Dale
Natalie Imbruglia
Holly Valance
Liam Hemsworth
Delta Goodrem
Jesse Spencer
Ben Mendelsohn
Danni Minogue
Mark Little
Melissa George
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.
