Cheaters, the long-running reality show in which private eyes track the movements of cheating spouses and fiances so the cheated can confront them as cameras capture their reactions, will start shooting new episodes around Dallas in the coming weeks after a two-year hiatus, says the show's creator and producer, Bobby Goldstein.

"I'm really excited because we were all performing so well together, me and the crew," Goldstein says. "It's a great show with a great energy, and we have a worldwide following. I wasn't cut out for retirement, which wasn't my intention at the time, but that's what it became."

Goldstein came up with the idea for his television creation during his days as a trial lawyer and started shooting episodes for syndication around Dallas in 1998 after an unsuccessful pitch to the Hollywood media machine that failed to foresee the rise of reality television.
