I use to watch the X Factor every week and remember not so long ago it was huge. Everyone was talking about, it was headlines till Wednesday etc... advertisers paid big bucks etc..
Now, it isn't. No one really talks about it. I tried watching it but can can't be assed. It has gone a bit meh and boring now.

Time to axe the show.

I'm actually getting bored of it and I think the final 3 will be the worst ever or the least memorable of all the 10 series

Yep. If it wasn't on in the winter when people can't be arsed going out, most of US would have given up years ago. Its McDonald's tv. Cheap, fast, bland and not really all that satisfying

I used to organise my Saturdays watching it - or if I was out making sure I caught it again Sunday. I didn't watched last Saturday's show until Friday and haven't watched last Sunday's result show yet and may not. I never watch Xtra Factor anymore. Years ago I would have been glued to it all.

I now record it on my YouView box and fast forward all te adverts, the clips before the contestants sing and some of the judges critiques.
There aren't any stand out contestants this year other than Sam B and Nicholos.

I WANT to bother with X Factor but it's getting tedious. It's a shame, they just chose the wrong contestants this year - not all of them but some - they let some bigger characters and voices go before the live shows. I think it will take more than one boring year to kill it. Other shows have less exciting years - Big Brother, for example - but people keep coming back. It's like an old diva - it will keep rolling.

Agreed though - the adverts and filler are tiresome. Sometimes I feel the recap at the beginning of Sunday's show is better than the whole Saturday shebang.
