I'm surprised it's been on for so long. Average. Same format every show. I'll watch it from time to time since it comes on after SNL around here.

I enjoy it, although I wonder if it is fake or not sometimes. Kinda like how Jerry Springer was.

I've lost lots of sleep watching this show. I can see signs of it wearing a little thin on me but its kind of fun in a train wreck kind of way.

Cheaters

I have known Tommy since he was 10 years old. Someone said he had a web site so I checked it out. Everything in his bio is so not true. He never played any sports and never had any friends. He never worked a day in his life. Most of his Arab family has been in and out of jail or prison for B+E, drugs addiction, alcoholism and other crimes. One of them even beat a murder charge.
So it's funny that he is on a TV show called " Cheaters ". I think he has been fired from the show.
I talked to Tommy about 2 years ago about "his" Cheaters TV show. The idea was just to get a show on the air and make people want to watch it. Money was the only thing Tommy wanted, he did not care about the show being truthful so as they ran out of ideas they started just to invent the shows with trashy people getting paid to do what they were told by Tommy and his bosses.

Tommy was replaced by some guy in glasses. He's currently a host of some lame ass judge show where they punish the loser.

There was a story in the Dallas Observer a few years ago that had people claiming they had faked segments for the show.

I keep watching the show in the hopes I'll see someone I know (since I believe all the episodes are shot in the Dallas area).

I checked my local listings and it doesn't show anything called "cheaters" on its lineup for friday or saturday nights on WB. someone mentioned about it being on after SNL, but I don't see it on NBC either.

Cheaters is syndicated so it may or may not air in your area.

Ok, who is Tommy? Are the viewers of Cheaters supposed to know?

I know Joey Greko (sp?) has been hosting since I've been watching.

Lets not forget that (new) host Joey Greco was actually STABBED on the show once. Its the one in which the intercept the cheater on a speedboat. I think it was number 3 on VH1's 100 greatest reality tv moments.

I actually enjoy watching this show, but am embarassed by it. Its sort of like my obsession with watching Maximum Xposure.

This show has one of the greatest television moments in history, staged or not. The boyfriend walks in on his girlfriend and two females IIRC. They have a construction zone set up with cones and yellow tape all over the bed.

Boyfriend: What the hell is going on?
(surely something was said here, but it's fairly irrelevant)
Girlfriend: You never want to do what I want in bed!
BF: What do you mean, I love you. I'll do whatever you want!
GF: Will you dress up like a construction worker and fuck me in the ass?
scene

This is all from my hazy memory so is not at all accurate.

It's like an accident on the side of the road that everyone slows down to see.

Just an example of yet another show showing people at their worst.
