OK I admit X-Factor has it's moments where its funny, though how staged it is I'd like to know,and worth a giggle for a few minutes but honestly. Do the majority of entrants to X-Factor walk onto the stage straight from appearing as guests on the Jeremy Kyle show? Then whittled down until we end up with a musically sanitised bunch of cloned people who have to have the same or similar tragedy struck reasons to dedicate their lust for stardom on?
What a load of old media led heap of shite is what I think it is. Oh yes i am envious of Cowell's millions, of course I am. He must be falling over with laughter and disbelief at his fortune in coming across such a lucrative way of selling crappola to the us all.
if mcdonalds changed business its what they would produce.
I refuse to watch it! but am getting annoyed it's talked about so much on the radio in the past few day's!!!!!
I have to say not a big fan....but
Hey this is TV entertainment...nothing more..and nothing less.
If you don't like it go watch one of the other 100 channels now available. Fact is it regularly gets the highest rateings for the week on ITV..and so they can charge the earth for advertising at that time.
and hey...it gave us ...Girls Aloud
For that alone...I vote its good !!!!
sorry but i love it but then i never hide the fact i'm a reality tv addict yes you may call me sad and i will most limely agree with ya but hell y not i love x factor, strictly, celebrity jungle and many others n yes i was proper gutted when BB finished
my dream came true last fri when i managed to get tickets to be in the audience for the first night of strictly so you can imagine my dismay when i couldn't go as due to an op i had a week before meant i wasn't upto going proper gutted i was spent the whole prog just thinking i should be there right now
so sad in fact am i that i spend all day sat at work looking forward to getting home slipping into my pj's and opening a bottle of wine n settling in front of the tv for x factor n strictly pure heaven for me btu then i know i'm not alone as i can honestly say 95% of my clients are exactly the same
Any program where the gullible audience have to vote people on / off the following weeks show is a total waste of air time imho.
I'm sure if you google hard enough, you find out who has won this years trash factor. It's fixed I tell ya.
My only hope is that there will be another campaign to prevent the sad act (sorry winner) from claiming the Christmas No1 spot.
:thumbup:
tbh i dont think any one is cloned all of the winners are just them selfs ,i love this programme it gives any one a real chance a real break ,just like britains got talent susan boyle the skys the limit
complete and utter garbage like all reality tv shows.i wish someone would shove that smug prat cowell off a cliff :twisted:
After reading a couple of days ago that someone is thinking about releasing it to compete with the Cowell Christmas Croon, I think all the X factor contestants should perform John Cage's 4'33"
Would rather gouge my eyes out with rusty spoons than watch X-Factor
They are all crap - bring back Opportunity Knocks. You want to know why?
Cos the bloke fronting it never, ever, mocked those taking part and the ones shown had already gone through real auditions and had a chance to make something of themselves.
The current crop of 'talent' shows are nothing to do with helping young talent and 100% to do with publicly humiliating poor kids most of whome have no talent in the first place and who, in a civilised society, would be quietly enouraged to seek an alternative route to fame and fortune. Not made to cry for a television audience.
Sorry - I'm fraid I can't stand it. However, I usually get drawn into each year because Sappho and Sappho Jr are ardent fans and there is only so far I can go to avoid it.
The worst bit is the terribly cheesy choreography. Frankly, most of X-factor offends my musical senisibilities.*
