I put this on another thread but feel quite strongly about it...talking with mates today who do not use forums and love SCD, and talking about a few things I had read here.
I had a read on the forum today and was dismayed as a long term lurker, about so many negative threads and comments about SCD.
I like the band and singers, would have supported Brendan more if he had done a better dance, but to argue over not one of his best, that he even admitted, made me a bit fed up, as it made others who had done well look like they didn't deserve it (I don't dislike him BTW) and the fact we know the BBC read these boards, it seems this year more than any other, some people are using it to gripe about how crap the programme is, and changes they want, when there are a lot of people who adore the programme (me and others!) who are happy as it all rounds out in the end, whatever the judges comments.
This is a gripe at the fact there are so many negative comments this year...and I always say, if you don't like it don't watch it! How can they win? I like Mark and Ray, others don't. I like the judges, and take their views with a pinch of salt, others don't.
I don't expect everyone at the BBC to remake the show to suit me? The judges and the format are what have made the show. I have watched since the first series an ain't broke, don't fix it.
I don't mean to spout off...but as a long time lurker, the fact the BBC look at these boards seems to give credence to people slagging them off. It feels like we are taking advantage of it?
Last year, from my lurking, people would have been thrilled to have been mentioned, now it seems like a 'lets slag off the show so the BBC notices' board.
We are so lucky in that they even look here...that does not happen with any other reality shows on TV as far as I know?
Not meaning to offend anyone but I am just stating my opinion too. Hope no one gets too peed off!, but I expect to be lambasted
And am away for a day or two from tomorrow in case anyone wonders if I have posted and gone.

I would hate SCD to not be on the air anymore because we all moan. Some moans are okay...I just think it seems we are taking it to the max, cos of the ITT show.
Just my opinion.
