I think the X-Factor is the worst thing to ever be put on TV. And I include cricket in that bracket.

I actually used to watch the auditions, back when they did have a Britain's Got Talent style process minus the gurning of PJ and Duncan in the background simply because it was the judges and the freaks, sorry, the victims, sorry, the entrants and this was entertaining. Kind of. I also used to like Sharon Osbourne before she got replaced with the shiny domed, plastic person - not Louis.

I hate the stupidly cynical nature of it and the contrived "tragic" back stories of some of the contestants. I hate Simon Cowell for being a jumped up, arrogant, high trouser wearing toss pot. I hate Louis Walsh for being an idiotic, melodramatic pratt. And Cheryl Cole, I just don't like her. She falls into that blander than bland side of modern celebrity that I just don't get on with. I don't mind Girls Aloud per se but I just fail to see the interest in them.

I don't really like any reality show apart from Big Brother (don't ask me why). The "celebrity" ones are sometimes amusing but feel drawn out, though no where near as much as the X-Factor, which is in all the papers and all the social network sites and all the news programmes and all the radio programmes...argh!!

The only good thing to ever have come out of a reality music TV type show is this...

quality rant, i actually agr......Kelly Clarkson......*drools*

what was the question again?
 
If the auditions are on I will watch it in the background because it can be funny, but other wise it is not worth wasting the electricity on ;(
 
I will go anywhere to miss this and as it says in the voting list its utter sh*t..wifey has it on and it does my head in good and proper..one consolation is I can take both my hearin aids out so I havnt got to suffer the abismal noise thats called singing :earmuffs:..our cat does it better but she wouldt go to the audition.. :ears::help: :rolleyes2:

Complete and utter tosh.

I know there are arguments about the money still ending up with Sony, but I LOVED last years campaign to get Rage Against The Machine to number one. I'm fully supporting this years campaign too...



Power to the people! Smash the manufactured pop, X-Factor/Pop Idol system! :laugh:

Loved it last year as well when that happened, hopefully Bird is the Word will indeed become number one :smile:
