The X Factor Reviews

So this is just my opinion on The X Factor its coming to its 10 year milestone this year! But does that mean it's going to get any better? The X Factor has in all fairness had some fantastic contestants throughout the years but it's the same every year, way to serious, never that light hearted and plenty of sob stories. Simon Cowell will ...  Read the complete review

I have been less interested in this series of X Factor as it goes along as there seems to be a misinterpretation of the point of the show. This is mainly notable in the judges approach to it. It seems that the only judge who is judging based on the SINGING talent is Gary Barlow. He made a very true remark on last nights show ...  Read the complete review

This show has been running for years now and is basically a talent contest for members of the joe public to audition for a singing contest. As with other telent competitions, you have to audtion in front of a live audience (which can be cruel at times) and not only the audience, but more importantly your singing in front of 4 judges ...  Read the complete review

** Do programmes such as the X Factor have a positive or negative impact on the music industry? ** Music is my passion. Reality TV is my guilty pleasure. I consider myself an X Factor fan and have watched every series almost religiously. Why? Because I find watching people entertaining. The same as I find it amusing watching ...  Read the complete review

In the 1990's, you could practically get away with anything and still come across as a marketable music act that could sell millions. Spice Girls for example, well past their peak but still one of the biggest selling girl bands in the world. Their music was silly and the image was over the top. They got movies, video games and ...  Read the complete review

Morphing into life from numerous early 2000s TV talent shows such as Pop Idol and Popstars, the X Factor first aired in 2004 and has dominated TV ratings in Britain ever since. Whilst talent shows are nothing new, with the like of 'Opportunity Knocks' and the often terrifying 'New Faces' being popular in the 1970s and 80s, the X Factor ...  Read the complete review

As this is a dooyoo lounge discussion review, I shan't be commenting on the show itself, the format or any of that. You can check some stunning reviews already. Instead, I'll be commenting on this recent X Factor Scandal involving Wagner, Cher and Katie Waissel. So Katie Waissel has been saved for a third time in a row on ...  Read the complete review

~~~~~~~~~~ 7th October 2010 ~~~~~~~~~~ So it's on our screens again and I must say I am quite shocked at Cheryls choice in contestants! The basis of this show, for those who don't know, is for Simon Cowell to earn loads of money and get even better known that what he already is. Nah, it's to find the person with ...  Read the complete review

I've been watching X Factor for a number of years now and always seem to find it interesting and enjoyable to watch. I think some of the contestants are really good and others, well, are not so good! The audition stages are the best but I think since they have been doing it on stage, it doesn't quite have the same effect of ...  Read the complete review

If you have been living under a rock for the last 10 years you may be unfamiliar with the 'cultural phenomenon' known as The X Factor. The premise is that Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and an assortment of other judges scour the UK for the next big star. Essentially it is a glorified talent show where contestants perform songs in various ...  Read the complete review

They have 4 judges for this show normally Louis Walsh , Cheryl Cole , Danni Minogue and ...  Read the complete review

The X Factor generates massive media and public interest while it is on television which usually results in the coveted Christmas number one chart position for the winning competitor; this did not happen last time round of course after a large scale on line campaign to stop it from being the best seller of that week. Thousands ...  Read the complete review

I, like millions of others, enjoy watching the X factor and have done since the beginning, way back in 2004. The series is a major hit for ITV and usually starts around August of each year. The programmes idea is to find a singer who has the x factor. Basically they are looking for a singer with a future as a recording artist. ...  Read the complete review

What can I say about this show... you either love it or hate it. I personally love it, especially the audition stages. They are so funny and entertaining, I do sometimes feel a little bit sorry for some of the contestants though, especially when the judges have put through others that aren't very good. For those of you who ...  Read the complete review

Of course, when this comes on I think a lot of people say "oh no not again" and then find themselves hooked to the auditions a week later. The audition weeks in the show I think are the best part, cruel but still entertaining. After that it seems to drag on so much. The winners first single usually does very ...  Read the complete review

This is a programme that I look forward to every year, I know it's not everyone's cuppa tea but I think it is fab and am a huge fan. I would love to be in the live audiences, maybe one day I will get to be there. I love the auditions they are so entertaining and make me chuckle, I very often think to myself that they must know ...  Read the complete review

X factor, what can I say. I am sure you know what it's about but if not, where it is: The show is a talent contest to decide the best singer/group in the United Kingdom, based on initial auditions and then viewer voting via a live show. Each series has had four judges that have always consisted of Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell. ...  Read the complete review

I love the X factor, it's incredible. The sheer size of the show and the amount of people that watch it is incredible. The contestants seem to get better and better each year and they sing better songs too. I like the judges and the impact that they have on the contestents emotions. It really makes them sing with much more ...  Read the complete review
