Ew if they bring Louis back, I'd rather it be axed

People are just tiring of the show. It's not surprising.

probably

Bring back Louis and Dannii I say

Strictly hasn't even started yet! Welp!

I can't imagine strictly doing much better this year have you seen that harrowingly tragic excuse of a lineup?

It's a mess

BIB: Basically the point of this thread.

TV viewership is down year-on-year now really, with only a few exceptions like Bake Off managing to go over 9/10 million in overnights so I think y'all are being a bit dramatic

The share isn't bad either

Also the thread title is giving me dramatic Daily Star headline teas

not really, 2M is a huge lost tbh.

The figure itself is a loss, but the share is brilliant for the time. I keep arguing this in other places but not everyone watches TV live anymore. They'd rather catch up in their own time which means the figures are all down.

Not when the share loss is only 5%, they can't earn another 2 million viewers when there isn't enough people watching television at the time. :laugh:

The last person to have a decent career out of it was Rylan tbh, it's irrelevant

true, a lot of people do watch online.

The 2 new judges are awful so

I expected it to be low tbh, this year ratings have gone down tbh

Ella Henderson shade?

Fleur's upcoming smash hit album shade?

Is Fleur releasing an album?

Doesn't it normally pick up after 1 or 2 episodes?

I love exaggerations.

:laugh: Honestly this thread is giving me BB10 Ratings Thread teas.

You make it sound like there's a massive ratings crisis for X Factor. In 2012, it launched with 8.1m, which was 3m down on the previous year, which launched with like 11m. So it's not the biggest loss. Not to mention TV viewership is down overall this year. The share is good.

Yeah it normally goes down a little on episode 2, then shoots back up on episode 3..

wasn't rugby on or something?

Changed all the bits that they shouldn't have changed and did nothing about all the things they should have changed years ago
