Try and find paul Morleys take on X Factor from last weeks Observer magazine, very good. He put into words what I felt but couldn't communicate.

I'm voting with my remote control, last X-Factor in this house, always enjoyed sitting watching it with the kids - Nice one Cowell.

FIX!!

Crock of sh1t :shock:
Twins should be too ashamed to ever show their faces, again...

DaSy

Oh sweet Jesus!

Cowell is either getting rid of any real opposition, or it's just that those muppet twins are good for viewing figures...

I am truly appalled; plus Leona Lewis is still using her powers for evil I see, she should be an R&B star of the ilk of Mariah Carey, not some dodgy Celine Dion type, belting out annoying ballads!

Louis didn't like the crowd booing the twits.

people laughed at elvis,the velvet underground,the rammones etc etc if these two comedy twins are the next jaw dropping moment in pop culture then we only have ourselfs to blame.

I hate the show but was at my sisters so forced to put up with it, Cowell is obviously out for ratings-clever bloke, she was to sh1t to win anyway, better to keep some entertainment. I actually laughed watching them, quality

I was mug enough to think 5/1 was a good price for them too go. The show has always been a joke, but that was unspeakable. Payback to the fools that kept them in i suppose and like someone said get rid of credible opposition. Last time i felt like this Terry had just missed the penalty in The CL final (Chelsea on pens!) and before that the famous NO goal from SPURS at Man U. Time to quit me thinks. No more shiny bits for the bike then !

I don't get it with all the people who complain that
a) X factor is crap and
b) Jedward ought to be voted out, and the fact that they are still there simply proves that
c) X factor is a disgrace and
d) X factor is crap

Me, I think its useless and sadly entertaining. A bit like Doc Martin, I can tolerate 15 minutes before my brain goes to mush. I actually voted for Jedward last week and will do so again in future. My rationale is that, the longer they stay in, the more ridiculous X factor makes itself look and - whisper it quietly - the greater the possibility that Jedward might hilariously win, and Cowell be forced to sign them. So, if you don't like X factor, vote Jedward! :twisted:

Let's face it, who else can you put a face to on there?
There's a couple of pretty lasses, a pretty boy or two and the bloke with the afro.
I watched it on & off Saturday night, can't remember what anyone sang, except for Jedward!
It's Cowell's money-making excercise and either his act wins and makes him money for a year or so, then he ditches them/him/her (Can't remember who he's coaching) or Jedward wins, then he's going to be pissed off, because the loot goes Walsh's way?.
He paid off that fat bloke a few years back (He's probably switching on the Christmas lights in Scunthorpe, appearing in Panto at Barnsley & singing at Butlins now) & the fat newshound bailed out of the dancing show before he won it.
A pattern? The public's pretty well bored of these "talent" shows, churning out some identikit winner, who wins on looking good, appealing to the teeny market, if they can sing a bit it helps but, in the end, are just there to enrich Cowell a bit more.

Total rubbish I am refusing to watch it any more. if its a singing contest Jedward should have gone, without a doubt. Simon has sold himself out this time. he got where he is today by being honest and truthful. not any more by the looks of it.

quite right - how many times has he said "it's a singing competition"...?? I've never voted before, but I think I might just vote jedward from now on......

Actually to appear in the finals of any of these shows the acts have to sign with Simon's management group and label Syco so Simon makes money off any of the finalists.....think JLS from last year, they were Walsh's group but Simon rakes in the money from them.

tv garbage

Mr_Cellophane

For as long as Stacy is in it I will watch it.
Don't forget Same Difference from 2007, Louis didn't like them for all the reason he does like Jedward :roll:

Its just for TV viewing figures...

Same Difference comment is quite right, another one is Chico... both were commented on as people the 'kids would love' and both have not done a thing, same with out of the (whopping great) big mould singers like Michelle McAnus. You do occasionally get some talented people on these shows but they're always going to be mainstream because that's the nature of the beast.

I like the way judges say 'xxx is growing as an artist', that really makes me laugh, there are no 'artists' on there, never have been, never will be, cos 'artists' don't enter 'karaoke singing shows' to make their name then go on to sing original material that they haven't written either. But you do get the odd credible one such as Leona Lewis or Will Young.

Cowell is an over-opinionated yet extremely successful business man, he's no talent scout that's for sure - no matter how much he thinks he is. He also knows damn well that the viewing figures next week will be even higher than this week and the show will be talked about more and more, he's got broad big shoulders and he'll be loving it.

I've ended up watching this the last couple of weeks as I've been at friend's houses. My reaction to Lucie was "wow, they finally have someone who can sing" (not Welsh bias as the boy is useless!). Each week Simon has rubbished her as he obviously saw her as a threat to his own "talent??!". He has also rubbished those bloody twins saying it's a singing competition so when he gets the chance to get rid of them from the singing competition he bottles it and lets the public ditch the only singer in it!

thejesusandsedischain

just watched the repeats of last nights show and what really hit home for me is the fact that every one of them were more botherd about appearing on red carpets than singing.and i thought these were the same people who have always claimed that singing was all they ever wanted to do.
