If I was producer, here is how the show would go....ie/ my idea on how the show should be this year...just for a bit of fun really.

Presenters - Emma Willis (very hot right now, amazing presenter, though she needs poaching from the voice)
Xtra Factor - Greg James and Russell Kane (they have a great chemistry, little bit naughty, but up for some fun, though they are both very heavily involved with the BBC)

JUDGES

Simon Cowell as the head honcho (for obvious reasons)
Jennifer Hudson - I just think she would really hit it off with viewers and contestants, very valid opinion, and an excellent singing voice
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini - she may not be everybodies cup of tea, but she is mine, I think if she cared less about people loving her and just being honest, which she did at some points last series, she can make some very valid points! She comes from that ordinary background that a lot of the people watching are from, and shares a lot of their views, in some respects she is the audience's voice, in my humble opinion.
John Legend - I know some may be thinking 2 americans? But they are both very worthy of their places don't you think? John is just amazing, he is credible, and seems like a genuinely nice person!

I did love Anastacia when she was a guest judge a few years back, but thought 3 Americans is USA overload!

FORMAT

Auditions - Room auditions
Bootcamp - 6 chair challenge
Judges Homes - As normal
Lives - As normal but with a brand new set, larger audience and less crap themes!


Of course this is providing I had a mahoosive budget!! What you guys think? Would I ruin X Factor once and for all?

if I was a producer instead of blowing money on a judging panel that just read from a script anyway I would spend a few quid expanding the back catalogue of songs available and get someone with a bit of imagination to come up with interesting but generic themes that allow contestants a far greater choice in the songs they sing and stop forcing them to do the usual karaoke classics every year

If I were producer:

X Factor host - Davina McCall (she's perfect for the role and is underused these days)

Xtra Factor host - Ricky Haywood Williams (from Ricky & Melvin duo)

Simon Cowell
Charlotte Church
Rochelle Humes
Wretch 32
