Quick heads-up: the episode of Cheaters where Joey Greco gets stabbed is airing on G4 right now.
You know you want to.
YEP. nowhere but Texas can it be legal entertainment to film people without their consent, surprise them with their own indiscretion and then watch their loved one who has called in the filmers assault them on camera....(this is not Jerry Springer physical assault, but really surprised people freaking the F out, of course Joey is getting stabbed). Sometimes I miss my home state. This TV show as well as King of the Hill are those types of glimpses into what is acceptable in Texas that somehow seems wrong in other places...In North Carolina and other parts East, I am constantly saying things like: "you mean you all didn't shoot each other with BB guns for fun around here?" Or "you didn't wear giant chrysanthymums on your chest at homecoming with streamers and cowbells attached?" They just sigh.
You mean Cheaters is actually REAL? I always thought that it was staged. That is awesome.
