I'm just thankful I have sky+ and can FF most of it. I do like watching the performances but everything else is annoying.

Funnily enough I've taken to doing this as well, start watching the programme an hour into it showing which allows you to FF through all the crap and the adverts!

Especially Louis comments which on the whole are exactly the same, for every contestant, each week.

Yeah we've noticed this too - it seems that any time he deviates from the normal / standard (well done) response he gets ridiculed and called names!

How about a game of "Louis Walsh BS Bingo" next Saturday?

Says so much about the general public when 10m people are watching this trash week in, week out. Even though you all know it's fixed, they mime, they cheat and it's boring, repetitive, tacky and solely created to make money for a few choice people. After all that it's a karaoke competition. I just don't get it, never will.

Millions of people around the world watch WWE even though it is fake and all pre planned. So what?

Maybe that will be the next series of X-factor to get even more ratings, each contestant sings their song and is then paired off against another contestant and have to jump about on the stage and pretend to hit each other , fall over, pour some fake blood about and act like they're unconscious and pretend that they are involved in several cast love-triangles.

In fact...what with contestants punching other contestants this series and the love triangles and inevitable sob stories for the sympathy votes every series, we've almost got that now ! Just need to add in the pretend hitting and jumping about on stage and its a sure fire combination :D

Ok, so if you hate Xfactor/sick of hearing about it/think it's pathetic/etc - do not post here, I am not interested. By posting that here you are trolling. Alternatively you could; change channel on a saturday night/not open a thread titled "XFACTOR"/not hit REPLY to a thread titled XFACTOR/not type about how you hate xfactor in a thread titled XFACTOR​

Katie will be in the bottom 2 again this week I am sure. The general public don't like her.

Am going to miss it this weekend as am out, hopefully it will be on Iplayer asap!

Take That better not mime!!!

WWE doesnt have vote ins for who to win then completely ignore it and go for the guy with the most flambouyant outfit. They say its all real and everything but basically at this point they are just playing puppets with the people onstage for their own amusement and profit.

Um, they're children. Most people grow out of wrestling at about 14, yet adults still watch X-Factor.

Yep, watched bits of the first few with my girlfriend but I just couldn't stand it anymore, so now I just leave her to it and go to a different room. Thankfully she's had enough of it now, she always knew it was TV for the fools but watched it anyway, now she seems offended at how bad it is, which is some statement seeing as she still regularly enjoys Gossip Girl etc

What a retarded example lol...first of all no one and neither does the WWE ask people to ring/text so that a wrestler goes through...sure its all planned etc but then everyone kinda knows that WWE is just as contrived crap as x factor is...problem is that x factor are making money off people whereas WWE make their money through merchandising and ticket sales to the arenas etc.

14 year olds? You should look at the crowd at some shows, most are clearly not under 15 :P

It is entertainment, might not entertain you but it does LOTS of people. An overwhelming majority of people watching TV watch XFactor when it is on (be it here or in the US (pop idol)).

Im not talking about the people that vote, I bet it is reletively a small percentage of viewers who actually vote each week.

jekeke said viewers, not voters.
