oh raahh, no need to feel shame - we all have our secret reality tv needs Grin i only watch the xf and bits of bgt for simon/michael and ignore all other shows of a reality nature, therefore, it is allowed to be mildly Wink obsessive.

banana87 · 10/11/2011 11:30

None of the above. They are all shit. they could at least pick someone who can sing.

ednurse · 10/11/2011 11:34

2 shoes 2 shoes 2 shoes!!!!!!!!!!! Grin

MyMelody · 10/11/2011 11:34

they should bring Johnnie back, i bet he got more votes than Kitty last week, the risk got the fewest votes so Johnnie was third from bottom (i reckon) and got booted off!

MyMelody · 10/11/2011 11:36

if Frankie had got kicked out last week they would have only got rid of one act on saturday and Johnnie or The Risk would probably still be there - i quite liked the Risk, much much better than Frankie and they seemed like quite nice lads who were taking it seriously and working hard

tefal · 10/11/2011 11:39

He was only kicked out on Tuesday so after the double eviction at the weekend.

Just jumping in to say James was bolleaux in the live show. Weak voice, don't know why he has so much support on the forums. It should be Amelia or TwoShoes. I'm outraged at what they have done to xfactor this year, they are ruining one of my favorite shows.

NhameCage · 10/11/2011 12:02

Oh yeah and, bring back johnnie (or wagner) and I will forgive all.

Davros · 10/11/2011 12:18

James did have a weak voice but I liked him. Very pretty.
I thought Amelia Lily (stoopid name) looked horrid with the bleached hair and tons of make-up, especially for her age and her singing was fine but nothing special. Two Shoes? Love 'em, a right larf. Squady boy, couldn't sing sadly.

deardear · 10/11/2011 12:24

sorry but i do think Jonny should be the one to come back. The Risk were the lowest vote by the public. They will make it anyway - they have the looks and the voices and are very similar to The Wanted.

Raahh · 10/11/2011 12:56

thanks SjuperWolef Blush

(It's a bit sad that I can tell what time of year it is based purely on tv- i.e- January to march= Dancing on Ice, End of June= Wimbledon, August to december- X-factor/strictly).

I really don't see how they can bring back Johnny (I would like them to, though). It would be gutting for all the acts that have left since the first week, if one of the returnees gets to the final. I wouldn't mind at all if 2Shoes got to the final, actually. Although if they do come back, Barry will use his favourite phrase 'you're a bit karaoke' quite lot.

Raahh · 10/11/2011 13:03

And I have just seen a picture of Skanky in the Dailymail and HIS FLIES ARE UNDONE!!

(waits for someone to tell me that along with drink/drunks/shagging around and not washing, this is how all 19 year olds lads wear their trousers...)

[[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2059508/Frankie-Cocozza-axed-X-Factor-bosses-cast-offs.html begs the question, what was he up to when they chucked him out ]Grin

Raahh · 10/11/2011 13:03

bugger

MarthasHarbour · 10/11/2011 13:11

just my two penneth for what its worth (disclaimer - dont even watch it but am strangely drawn in)

  1. Ratings are low, SC allegedly tells all the judges to pull their socks up and deal with it (just last week)
  1. Cue FC being shit on Saturday night, SC thinks this could work.
  1. Cue FC being sacked on Tuesday, now EVERYONE is talking about XFactor (including me)
  1. They decide to do a PHONE VOTE to decide who goes in on Saturday, thus generating more revenue and prob more viewers
  1. EVERYONE will watch on Saturday night now to see what the score is.
  1. Same format with the Tulisa/Kelly row, Kelly phoning in sick, Alexandra i-know fuck all about the music biz but got lucky coz my mum was in soul to soul Burke stepping in

Its all just showbiznezz sweetie

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 10/11/2011 13:20

Marthas - for someone who doesn't watch, a very succinct synopsis!

Thing is, if they had brought anyone back who had already been voted off, i.e. Jonny, there would be an uproar. At least the four acts who the judges got rid of at the beginning will be up for a public vote now. (I think someone already said this, but anyway....)

Raah - I'm the same. Except I'm more of a simple soul: X Factor / Strictly = winter, Wimbledon = Summer. :o

Raahh · 10/11/2011 13:20

No, Martha, you have it in a nutshell. I love X factor- but long since stopped thinking of it as anything other than a light entertainment show that fill several hours of programming in the run up to Christmas. Grin I will carry on watching because I have no life out of interestGrin

MarthasHarbour · 10/11/2011 13:53

Thank you ladies

I have watched it every year since Shayne Warne Ward (2005 i think) but the whole KatieShow/WagnerWhatever/Dannii being bullied thing last year just pissed me off, so i stopped watching this year. So i am aware of all the BS they string out for the viewing figures.

Thing is i am soooo trying not to get sucked in, but tis difficult. I watched one episode with my sister 2 weeks ago, and, (a)actually thought Kitty was really good and (b)got soo pissed off with Frankie and his 'image' i think it was shiney who described him as 'poundland pete docherty' which sums him up. If he was 10 years older i would be convinced by the 'rock and roll image' but he is a jumped up little spoilt tosser.

MarthasHarbour · 10/11/2011 13:54

ooo and i realise that if they bring back Johnny/The Risk they will be buggered as they went to the public vote

Davros · 10/11/2011 14:46

I would love to see Shane Warne on it, with replacement judge KATHY (not Alexandra) Burke Grin

Raahh · 10/11/2011 15:48

We really need to call Cowell re- getting Kathy Burke on board. Kelly would not get her humour at all (which would funny to watch) she would take the piss out of Tulisa, Barry may actually crack a smile for the first time since the auditions- she could replace Louis.Grin

far better than dot.com Burke.

MarthasHarbour · 10/11/2011 23:09

With Ken Gary Barlow

and Louis Walsh Spence

Grin
Raahh · 11/11/2011 08:13

Louis Spence- can you imagine that? He's be on the stage with them...Grin

LOVE the idea of Ken Barlow, although as Gary is morphing into an ageing, grumpy, Northern gent we may not notice the difference!Grin

SuePurblybilt · 11/11/2011 08:18

Raah - I am worse than you in the saddo stakes. You can track my MN use by Apprentice and XF threads Grin. The rest of the year I'm hardly here but when I come back for them, I get sucked into the whole board.

Anyway, Paulo-lite or 2Shoes. Though I think the Singing Squaddie may do well from the timing

RomanSindastone · 11/11/2011 08:20

2 Shoes 2 Shoes 2 Shoes

I don't like Amelia, with her surly face and clown make up.

Raahh · 11/11/2011 10:22

Grin@Sue

I hope it isn't Jonno- i really couldn't take to him. And he wasn'r good, he jjust had an interesting 'story'. But Louis only has one act left, so he has time in his hands. I do hope it is 2Shoes- they are loads better than Little Mix. I feel we are being manipulated into liking Little mix because of the Jesy thing, and I don't like that.

The 'other 3' in Little Mix, I have discovered are called-
Leigh-Anne, Perrie and Jade. Jesy fits in well with them, doesn't she.Grin
