I think Dan R's kidding - no-one would ever call X-factor distinguished entertainment.

On BBC News this tells a story.
The most-watched TV programmes of the decade so far: Olympics 2012 closing ceremony (12 August 2012), BBC One: 24.5 million Olympics 2012 opening ceremony (27 July 2012), BBC One: 24.2 million Euro 2012: England v Italy (24 June 2012), BBC One: 20.3 million The X Factor (12 December 2010), ITV: 17.7 million Olympics 2012: men's 100m final (5 August 2012), BBC One: 17.3 million Euro 2012: England v Ukraine (19 June 2012), ITV: 16.4 million The X Factor (21 November 2010), ITV: 16.1 million The Great British Bake Off (26 October 2016), BBC One: 15.9 million World Cup 2010: England v Germany (27 June 2010), BBC One: 15.8 million The X Factor (14 November 2010), ITV: 15.7 million http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-37897727 So the story that tells me, is that despite it's current state, XF is the most watched entertainment show of the decade so far, and ITV has the crown for it.

Certainly does ADP, X Factor is the highhesf rated entertainment show, and it's also in the list three times. Apart from Bake Off, the rest is sport.

Yep. TXF used to be a TV event. Strictly never has been and never will be.

On another topic, if The Next Great Magician holds up, do you think they'd renew it? It did better than I (and you) expected, but do you think the number is still too low, or acceptable against Strictly? I think if it can hold above 3 million (a big if, it doesn't have much room to fall) then it's worth another shot.
I'm surprised 18-34 year olds are as keen to watch magic acts as they are to watch celebrities dance. Paul Daniels would be pleased. |

And it tells us they have lost over 10 million viewers in only 6 years. That's some going that and someone should be sacked. Oh

Strictly hasn't hit 19 million peaks or 17 million averages though, now, has it? It also hasn't averaged 15m for a whole series which XF did at its prime.

Well we all know, the higher you go, the further you can fall. SCD hasn't fell because it never reached those heights!

Flip it the other way and has a show ever had such a disastrous drop in ratings in such a short space of time ? Bet someone would like to get a grip on that.
![]() Also the first series of The Voice UK had the same trajectory that XF has had over the past 6 years across 6 weeks! |

Big Brother and Deal or No Deal are two prime examples of shows that were huge for their network but fell much faster and harder than X Factor. American Idol fell faster in the US too.

Look we get it - The X Factor was a behemoth but it isn't now. It's doing okay and little more than that. It needs to stabilise and quickly. Do we really need pages and pages of pathetic childish baiting about it week after week? What's so amazing about this week's ratings compared to last week that calls people to comment on it, except maybe it held up better than expected yesterday considering...
What an astounding figure for Planet Earth! I didn't see that coming; 7m maybe but not over 9m. That's just stunning. I know someone mentioned earlier than BBC cannot be relaible on it but they're not - if they have nothing else next year they'll just stick Antiques Roadshow there which'll pull in around 6m. Strictly did really well too.As long as The Next Great Magician doesn't fall any further it's probably a good enough rating for it. Maybe it should have been given an easier slot with something more reliable taking on Strictly, like The Chase? |

Millionaire had a dramatic fall. Neighbours fell a lot in 6 years. Dallas fell a tad from the 21m peak.
