The only thing they are really looking for in a group is marketability. They want another 1D/Little Mix type success.

Could this group potentially attract obsessive fans and flog customized bed sheets? Thats the real question.

Yeah but none of the remaining groups can actually sing now...

Yes that's right. The groups have to appeal to the younger demographic now where once they got the granny vote then disappeared without a trace.

I think you've hit the nail on the head there.........I very much doubt it will happen this year seeing who he put through!

He kicked out the one group who can actually sing really well

I agree, they were the only ones that can sing in tune. I'm so disappointed

Awful! Mind you, look at Wand Erection, they were terrible and that Zane lad was tone deaf. I hear they're making a few bob though

Yes the groups are lacking, and yes Garry is singing their praises too much, but this disingenuous turn of events is how the X Factor works. The show and Garry want to present their acts as being winners, not losers, otherwise people wont care, vote, or tune in, and that's ultimate what this show is about.

It's bullshit, but don't expect salesmen to be objective and honest when their trying to sell you something to meet their own ends.

I agree what is the attraction with Brick City they all thought they were brilliant. In Kingsland the first guy to sing was out of tune only for the other guy carrying the song through they should never have got through to JH.
Here we go the next ID everyone.
Brick City got to sing a few lines while some of the others even got to sing their song right through.
mainly Tamera and Hannah and possibly Sam Callaghan and Sam Bailey too

Next of kin reminded me of Robson and Jerome. Not my cup of tea at all.

Gary has to say they're great until they get voted off. He can hardly say they're all crap who'll be gone in the first few weeks and their only purpose is to make up the numbers and increase the dolla on the phone vote.

I agree, awful selection but nothing a good old loud backing track and clever staging can't paper over. Clealry 2 will be thrown under a bus> If the show want the girl group to do well they'll try their best, but really at this stage we coud see that Little Mix had potential - those 3 girls of Garys just don't gel vocally or need tons more work.

And Gary is acting like he's been blessed. Huh?

Is it just me? Are they crap?”

Worst set of groups EVER! Glad there are other FM's of the same opinion - yes they are crap. It would appear Mr Barlow has no ambition to win XF this year, lol!

Some of the groups sounded a lot better when I heard them on XtraFactor. I can't help feeling I haven't really heard most of the groups properly yet. Certainly they weren't overly impressive on the main show.

I agree None of the groups are very good at all, Kingston only got put though because they tick they boyband box, where as i find them arrogant, annoying and talenless. At least last year you had Union J who where very likeable, humble and could SANG!

Im not sold on Miss Dynamix yet...I though Gary said this is the best year for groups in all the X Factor History. Ummmm Nope most of them are going to be used as cannon fodder and i cant see Gary winning this year. I think the final could well be between one of Sharon's Acts, One of Louis and one of Nicole's with Gary not having an act in the final.

I was at the groups bootcamp and have now uploaded all my videos of their FULL auditions.. the xfactor cut everyone so much hilariously you guys thought Kingsland were bad.. they were worse on the night.. and good bands didnt get their full auditions shown.

My Top 3 would have been Brick City, Rough Copy and XYRA

Brick City gave a great acapella answer to why they should get a seat - CUT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENRQlE8R3xs

Kingslands awful bum notes - CUT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbHOkqx-H3w

Rough Copy's was pretty much true to form
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo3DlCizs4M

XYRA's outstanding ending and standing ovation - CUT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msB3wOM2WCg

The new group crying for about 20 minutes and then ALL the bum notes - CUT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kv3rMXtvfQ

Next Of Kins incredible performance - CUT
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lt7W76YNRTs

and well Code 4's was just shortened.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9ZGlP1y5QM

and the ACTUAL swap where they made bands beg for their seat:

I agree the groups are utterly dismal this year. Probably so Gary has a good excuse to depart the panel after this season.

Louis and Sharon are making this their last series too aren't they? There'll only be Nicole left!

I don't think he's ever had any ambition for his act to win. He's only there for the promotion the show gives him. I suppose the money (although he doesn't need it as he must have loads stashed away) comes in handy for a bottle or two of brown ale, a meat and potato pie and some hair restorer!
