People may have already said this or may disagree with me, but i think the show started losing someting when Kate Thornton was axed.

Dont get me wrong i like Dermot but he doesnt have the x-factor when it comes to bonding with contestants like Kate did.

Also this year seems bit boring i think without Sharon, i like cheryl and i think she has taken over from Sharon in terms of being nice to the crap ones and letting hem through out of sympathy and crying lol.

Bring back Sharon and get rid of Danii.

I like Dermot, I just don't think he is the right host for the XF. I do miss both Sharon and Kate, but I don't think there is any chance of them returning to the XF.

Dermot is better on Xtra Factor! But that is largely because they are allowed to have more fun, when he does the main show it all has to be very serious. Holly is great as well.

The novelty of Sharon had worn off. Great in 2004, 2005 but by 2007 it was a bit dull.

Kate didn't seem up to live presenting. She was better at consoling the losers at the auditions (as women usually would be) but on the live shows she was so robotic and never seemed comfortable.

I know people slate them, but Ant and Dec are excellent presenters. Whether or not you like their jokes or personalities, they are so comfortable on stage and in front of the cameras. They seem to be having fun but get all the basics, Kate looked like she was at work.

Dermot was so much more suited to BBLB, and Kate to the X Factor.

But I wasn't sorry to see Sharon go, personally.

I was gutted when they axed kate but I think Dermot is just as good, dont miss Mrs O at all, her immature behaviour on last years live shows did it for me:yawn:

Don't miss Kate and don't miss Mrs O.

Liked them both but I do like Dermott much better as a presenter.

Dermot seems nice but he's lacking that X Factor that Holly has as a host.
And no I don't miss Osbourne, at all...

I really miss them both. X Factor was at it's best when it had the original judges and hosts.

i thought Kate was an awful presenter. I'm glad shes gone. Sharon didn't really know what she was doing when it came to mentoring, but she was entertaining.

I miss them both, however....Sharon has at least been replaced by someone I like.

Dermot is a dullard. Very indifferent to Dermot. I'd love Kate back but I'd prefer Ant and Dec.

I really like Dermot as a person but as a presenter I don't really find him up to much. I do think hes improved a lot this year though, maybe its because he never did BBLB this year?

I think Cheryl Cole is the only one who could really replace Sharon, I'd say either her or Charlotte Church (both outspoken) but love her or hate her, Sharon no longer there has left quite a big hole. I do like the feel of the panel this year though, but I do miss the Simon/Sharon/Louis days. Simon made a critical error to play about with the format. Its very hard to get chemistry, and they got it spot on with those three.
