Even though I thought the guest artists last night were top drawer telly that is the only thing that made the show watchable. Simon has messed far too much with the show ( I know the ratings were falling but scrapping sing offs x tra factor and racing through the whole series). I absolutely looked forward to the final every year because the set was magical with Christmas trees and always a Christmas theme somewhere along the line. The stand out moment ever for me was Little Mixe's version of Silent Night and even people who werent religious in any way were totally wowed. I loved the finalists each singing some kind of Christmas song. I have watched the X factor since series 2 and defended it to those who adore Strictly ( I watch it most times but X factor was always my favourite) but Simon needs to pull it at this stage I think. I am beginning to think I wont bother watching anymore if this is how its going to be run. Anyone agree?

Overall I was bored most of the time with X Factor.

The acts were as to some at best just above average.
It lacked atmosphere from the start of live shows.

Far too much time was spent on the annoying false tension of the 6 chair challenge.

The live shows rushed through as if they were an inconvenience.
I've watched it out of loyalty but this series I saw just about nothing as to anyone on it really having any such thing as the X Factor.

I absolutely can't stand the drastic, unneccesary changes Simon has made, just axe the show next year if the old format doesn't return...
It's a shame because the acts this year were one of the best ever...but they didn't have time to show their true potential...

I fast forwarded the whole show last night save P!nk.

This series sold out, it was fake, joyless and pointless

It jumped the shark and there is no way back for it now. Hopefully the last series of this mess
