For me it's the US version; I always enjoyed the chemistry between Adbul and Cowell on Idol. Abdul can be completely whacky and spaced out at times - which bring great comic relief.

I also think that the chemistry between Adbul and Cole will be interesting to watch.

I just can't see the UK show having the same spark and excitement as the US version.

If BGT is any indication of how X Factor will fare without Simon Cowell on the panel, the UK show is in big trouble.

Well, BGT is actually still doing good in the ratings, so I don't see how it'd be in trouble.

10.4 million viewers is in big trouble?

The thread isn't about TV ratings, it's about "which one are you most looking forward to seeing."

And i've stopped watching BGT because I think it's dire.

If your taste conforms with those 10.4 millions, fine.

Mine does not.

So just because you don't like it, the UK show will be in big trouble? Right

In the first place I'm not going to watch either until the freakshow rounds are over, but once we get to "boot camp" I guess I'm looking forward to XFUS more, just to see how the panel works and what kind of talent pool they're looking at. The UK appears to have been left with the 2 dullest panel members, plus Gary Barlow and Alesha or Lily (depending on what websites you believe), none of whom I'm a fan of, so they'll have to win me over, but I'll give them a few weeks' benefit of the doubt...

A danger signal for XFUS will be how many 12-16 year-olds get through (which will take it into BGT territory), and I'm ready to abandon both at a moment's notice if it looks like all the pantomime shennanigans over the producers' favourite acts and the novelty acts starts up again, I'm not wasting my time again this year...

Well USA is disappointing judges but I am looking forward to see how it goes and if it has good talent like global!

UK, ATM I am not too sure as I don't know who the last judge is (maybe even the last two!) Lets just say if it's Alisha or Mel C then not very exiting if it's Lilly I would be very exited, if it's Sharon I may possibly turn of the TV! Only joking but that would be really bad for X Factor if she does come!

I am most excited about the US version, i seem to have lost interest in the UK version, perhaps because there doesnt seem to be as much publicity around it. And i also think X Factor USA will be really big for ITV2 perhaps thier biggest show.

Of course people are more interested in USA! It has nothing to do with the acts but the judges. The most talked about judge is now in USA. As for Simon he too would draw some attention.

XFUK is dead and everyone knows it.
