Should X Factor UK have an underdog catergory?
X Factor Australia will have an underdog category where another judge will have 3 acts that were rejected at an earlier stage at the live shows. Do you think there should be a fifth judge with 3 acts that were eliminated at an earlier stage?
Personally I think it could work as it would eliminate deadlock and give contestants who viewers thought were unfairly rejected a second chance. |

An alternative music category would make the show far more interesting.

They could just spare us the idea of categories and "mentoring" and put through 12 acts worthy of making the live shows, irrespective of whatever arbitrary categories the producers have come up with.

I think the underdog category sounds like a brilliant idea.
The 6 chair bit is not effective, cruel and needs removing from the format totally. |

![]() Another category would only be the wildcards manipulation, but under one judge. |

In an alternate universe, "they" kind of do. It's called The Voice

I think an Underdog category would be really good! Brings something different to the show. If I could pick 3 acts to bring back as underdogs from this year it would be:
• Anelisa Lambola • Janet Grogan • Skarl3t |

XF AU only has 3 main judges. The underdog judge only gives them 12 finalists too.

I would imagine that the artists that do well on the new series of The Voice will get better promotion on ITV.
If the public vote for a talented, but safe choice with little marketability, the result will be the same. |

If the press are to be believed, they did plan on having a Wild Card category two years ago. There would be a Guest Mentor each week mentoring the 3 Wild Cards, but they instead just added a 4th contestant to each judge's category.

If they did have an Underdog category, then Christian Burrows, Janet Grogan, Skarl3t and Olivia Garcia need to come back!
