My guess he will appear in the VT's giving his thoughts on the acts and pleading the public to vote for his favorites since he was angry with last weeks result.

He's preparing for his return since there's no chance that the US version will be renewed

I thought he would save his appearance until the 23rd as they need all the help they can that night with Doctor Who on at the same time

It's annoying how this has happened the one year I have got into it. ITV2 are also messing around with it the new episodes are on Saturday at 11am.

Screw US Factor I want him back here, where he belongs.

He's going to confess it's all a calculated manipulated gameshow and apologise to the nation before breaking Gary breaks out into a chorus of 'Want You Back For Good'

It seems like it. Out of the USA, UK and Australian show, it does seem like the USA one has done the worst out of the three. The Aussie show ratings has gone up this year and the UK ones are not down to 1 - 2 million, unlike the USA show. For such a big country like the USA, it is terrible. There is no excuse for the awful USA ratings.

You do know Gary and Simon really don't like each other.

The results show also gets significantly less views than the live show, which means people are not invested in it. It doesn't help that there was a long break and the whole voting fiasco happened.

Think of it this way in the US there latest show got around 3 Million people watching the US is around 5 times the population of the UK so translate it to this population there really is only 600,000 people watching which over here would mean instant cancellation.

They do? Is that why Nicole has Simon's seat?

Also, will this be the official reason why the Flash Vote will not be revived, or will they just sweep that thing under the rug like it never happened?

Basically what happened was after the 2011 series Simon called Gary boring and criticized him and the UK team went against him and signed Gary on for 2012 and Simon really did not like that. So yeah they don't really get on any more. I don't even know how he got onto the 2013 series.

To be honest I think the flash vote will be sweeped under the rug although they did give the reason that they did not have enough time due to Chic but Simon could of got an extra 15 minutes very easily so yeah I think it is finished.

I like how Simon is the one that is actually paying him. I don't think it's like Sharon and Danii but there is just a general dislike for each other.

it goes back further than that. simon's always criticised gary. back when nigel martin-smith first made take that and was looking for a label to sign them he went to simon. simon point blank refused to do so with gary in the group - his stipulation was for them to "ditch the fat one" (gary wasn't even close to being fat at this stage. he was 19 and skinny, but no real muscle unlike the others who all did professional modelling). nigel point blank refused to do that, as gary was the only member he saw as being really necessary, and told simon to shove it....simon has since called that "the biggest mistake of my career".
there was also some interaction between them during gary's solo career where simon was in a level of power, but i can't remember the ins and outs of it. i'd have to look it up. regardless, relations between them have never been easy.

itv on the other hand love gary. it was them who approached him for the job, they have a long solid history of successful tv documentaries and musical projects with both gary and take that, and despite cowell reportedly not being keen on him, itv didn't just ask him to come back, they pretty much said "name your price" to do so - which saw him get a pay rise and a primetime christmas special.

in the case of gary being on x factor, it's most definitely itv who have overruled cowell every time.
