Why has this programme deterioted? juvenile jokes, and Caroline thinking the programme is all about her has absolutely ruined this show. I thought it was supposed to be about the contestants but all we get is silly unfunny celebs (keith Lemmon) and stupid segments. Please can we hear more about the performances and the contestants!

The secret is that the contestants are really really dull when interviewed for any length of time. Jahmene's interview was tedious in the extreme.

It's basically the after show party and it's meant to be light hearted and fun. They're always talking about the show anyway. And Keith Lemon (who I usually don't like outside Celebrity Juice) was very good tonight.

Sorry I am probably too old for this show but I really wish we saw more about the contestants and not keep getting celebs plugging DVDs, etc.

Ben was very good and very professional, but anyone is better than the dreadful Konnie!

Connie was better, but they wanted someone that would sleep with all the acts to get some gossip, so brought in Caroline.

But there is something funny about watching a weekly car crash. And at least Konnie seemed really interested in all the contestants, whereas Caroline Flack is mainly interested in Caroline Flack.

I want to like it but find it pretty repetitive and thought tonight's programme was particularly poor.

I can't watch it, I stomach Caroline Flack long enough for the judges phone questions but that is it. And Keith Lemon, just tries to take over every show he is on, can't stand him.

One of the best spin-off shows there is.

Ermmmm im no spring chicken, and Lemon made the show for me, caroline bores me to tears with her attempt at humour and always has, as for the judges....well pass on that as well, i wasn't really interested in what they had to say, especially Louis and Tulisa

Xtra factor is easily the best of the spin-off shows IMO compared to the other's (I'm a celeb get me out of here now/BB-Bit on the side etc).
I hated Olly Murs before,but actually like him and Caroline Flack now ... they must have great producers

I agree with you, I love comedy but Keith Lemon is so unfunny and childish, still it obviously appeal to the juveniles.

As you say it is not Xtra Factor anymore , it is the Caroline and Olly show, we used to get constructive critique from credible artists presented professionally by Ben Sheperd.

People who like this garbage must either have a very childish sense of humour or be one card short of a full deck.

Nobody can hear an opinion when Keith Lemon is on because he wants to be heard over everyone.

I've really gone off Caroline Flack this season.
I like Olly a lot, he just seems like a nice guy, but Caroline has irritated me this season.
I enjoy the programme still, it's a bit of fun, but it wouldn't bother me if Caroline was replaced next season.
