as in title, are you watching/following this years X-factor

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...

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...
