AIBU to think that "Let it Shine" is really bad?

I know that it's supposed to be musical theatre rather than The Voice / X-Factor, but I don't think that any of the contestants can really sing well. Is it just me?

Loving it here! DC easy viewing!

I thought all the singers were a bit shite and ended up turning it off.

Plus, Gary Barlow makes me want to take a long nap.

YANBU.

It is awful. In fact the TV seems particularly bad tonight, I can;t find anything to watch.

I haven't seen it, but if it's got Gary Barlow in it, it's bad.

'Dance, dance, dance' looks like it'll be bad as well....

Isn't Gary Barlow a tax dodger?

It's very slow moving.

Turned over to The Voice. Who's the new bloke?

Who's the other lady? (Not Danni)

MrsMattBomer · 07/01/2017 20:10

It's AWFUL. If it had anyone else out of Take That other than 'Sir' Barry Garlow I'd quite enjoy it, because I like how it focuses on dancing as well as singing, but with him at the helm and being the centre of the show I can't like it.

crashdoll · 07/01/2017 20:10

Some of the ones who are getting though have very average voices. Confused

ForFiveMinutes · 07/01/2017 20:11

YANBU, its very poor, only laziness prevents me from finding the buttons to turn over.
Would go to bed now if Tom Hardy wasn't on at 9.15!

TheTAW · 07/01/2017 20:11

Just turned off after watching 10 minutes - awful. Why oh why Mel Giedroyc took this job, she's so unsuited to this kind of tv.

Lilaclily · 07/01/2017 20:11

She's actress from glee

Are we talking new woman from 'Shine' or 'Voice'? Voice is Jennifer Hudson, Shine is from musical theatre (Glee, as Lila said?)

I can watch rubbish TV very easily but I have just turned it off!

antimatter · 07/01/2017 20:17

It's musical theatre. Some singers are very good.

Sparklingbrook · 07/01/2017 20:23

It's just for men because there were no women in TT presumably.
