The producer behind "Cheaters," a reality TV show that uses undercover techniques to catch spouses being unfaithful on camera, reportedly has an idea for a spinoff. "Celebrity Cheaters" would try "catch celebrity cheaters with their pants down," according to the producers pitch and would be hosted by famous alleged mistresses Michelle "Bombshell" McGee and Jamie Jungers. The show might not happen—no contracts have been signed yet by McGee, a self-identified mistress of actress Sandra Bullock's husband, Jesse James, or Jungers, who won Howard Stern's beauty pageant for women linked to Tiger Woods. And no network has yet agreed to air the program. Would this show be too sleazy to succeed, even by reality TV standards? (Watch a report about "Celebrity Cheaters.") Here's what five commentators had to say:
Reality TV has finally hit rock bottom: "We already considered canceling our cable when we found out Jon Gosselin's ex-girlfriend Hailey Glassman could be getting her own reality show, but this news may finally force us to burn our remotes." Aly Semigran, iVillage
