Well I can safely say that last year was my final series I watched in full and that I've only seen sporadic clips on YouTube just so I can be slightly 'with it' for the purposes of my blogging and day to day followings. And I for one can hand on heart say that I don't miss watching it in full one bit now. I always found my loyalties split with Strictly since about Leona's series onwards and now it's nice just to watch the one show on a Saturday night. Strictly is feel good telly but X Factor is really only feelgood up to the point when the hopeless likes of Union J and District3 and Rylan are being advocated over say, Kye Sones or Carolynne Poole who deserved to go further and be given more of a fair chance. I don't want to feel angry on a Sunday night because Louis Walsh has once again not engaged with whatever he has left of a brain.

 

As for judging next year I doubt very highly all these press rumours about Olly being a judge are or will be true. I LOVED him and Caroline on Xtra last year - they were like X Factor's very own Miranda and Gary - but he left to give his music more focus and next year he'll be writing and then releasing his 4th album, so maybe performance wise he'll be back like he always is. But doing Xtra and his music nearly left him on the verge of depression from exhaustion and being a judge is even more all consuming than hosting the show or Xtra. And personally I love him for the music first.

That is a fabulous post, and I'm sure a lot of people can relate to what you say when you say that you don't want to be left angry on a Sunday night (see 'angry mum X factor' video (as much of a QUEEN she is :wub:)).

 

Although Miranda/Gary >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Caroline/Olly :heehee:

I say equal pegging to the last bit there. But yes I have seen the angry mum. Hilarious!

Love to see Dannii back as well as Simon. Simon, Dannii, Nicole and someone is is a bit of fun and a bit camp like Louis.

Simon Cowell - because this show needs him to be back

Mel B - because she was absolutely brilliant as a judge

Miranda Cooper or Cathy Dennis - because they're two of the best pop writers of the last decade

Olly Murs - because it's rumoured and I wouldn't mind having him there just so we have a former X Factor alumn as a judge. ok.com

I'd personally love to see Mel B and Simon Cowell on the same Judging panel, I think that could be the best thing to happen to the show in years. I feel they have been grooming Mel B for the role, getting her to do Americas got talent and then that Stepping out rubbish.
