...apparently, according to The Sun.

Can't say i'm that all that surprised tbh, although i'm still watching the show, and do enjoy it, i can't say i enjoy it as much as in previous years (the last 2-3). It's leaning too much towards entertainment (joke acts) and 'characters' rather than talent for me, of course the show has never solely been about the voice but when you get people like Cocozza (no talent, pure character) getting through, you know you have a problem. Just not enough talent this year. Also feel the judges have been a bit of a let down, too scripted.

Excellent news. Yes this series is awful but I'm not even taking the show seriously anymore, I'm only watching to laugh at how ridiculous it's become.

It's run it's course imo, I think the whole Reality TV era is coming to an end actually

Is it because producers have lost touch with "reality" ..... :puzzled:

Apparantly there were fewer people phoning in as well. Maybe that's a good thing because Britain actually got two of the worse acts in the bottom 2 last night...I was so shocked.

It's still pretty big business, don't think it'll be transfering to channel five just yet!

Still getting 10million and more than 40% share is enough.

It's because of the warm weather, they'll be back above 10 million this week :idc:

Down to 9.77m last night with 340k on timeshift. Strictly however was up 400k week on week to 9.45m.

Unless if fell to below 8 million or something i don't see the problem :shrug: It's contracted till 2013 anyway

The talent is way better than last year, and it's more entertaining. Shame it didn't lose this many last year when it actually was awful.

I'm not into TXF this year really.

Theres no-one I really like. Seems boring and the level of talent is dire IMO.

Matt Cardle won last year and Joe McEldzzzzz the year before so its always dire. Its the pantomime that is the fun.

I wonder why everyone is switching off,

I switched off because of the blatant fixing from last year.

I bet the real reason Simon isnt there this year is because he foresaw the decline in ratings and this way it gets blamed on him not being there so he looks like a great guy still
