I know many don't like it, and even I can take it or leave it, but love it or hate it, it's back - and so are Louis Walsh and Sharon Osborne.   It should be a laugh at times...

    I used to like the earlier shows but now it is too much about the judges and less about the new talent.Sad

    Watched it DSB, the 4 judges had a better relationship & laugh. They found a couple of excellent singers last night too. I like the family/background stories that are given with the singersHappy

    We were fans of the original series, even thounit took the Micky out of the real bad singers, (they new they what they were doing and how they sounded or looked )  as for background stories rocky don't that tell you that they have already been chosen to
    go through  

    So where's the spontaneity of turning up queuing up and auditioning if you have already had what they call a V T done , yes if you have got through the first audition ,  but we don't see there original auditions in front of staff and from there they are
    then chosen to go in front of judges, so we find it's usually predictable when they show the V T , but yes we will be watching

    Same her Rocky.  We tend to watch it for the fun - some of the judges comments and reactions are really funny, especially if they hear a 'poor' act.  I just don't get how some of these 'contestants' would put themselves up for something like that.  Either
    they haven't got a clue, or they don't have very good friends who would tell them not to bother.

    I watched it once for 10 minutes to see what all the fuss was about, I felt I had just wasted 10 minutes of my life, funny NO, cringeworthy YES , but there's something for everyone on TV
