I don't perticularly like Dermot but he was well received by viewers and I think his departure will have made some turn off, Olly was embarrassing last year.
Cheryl was dull and gave the impression she was there for the money and didn't care about her acts last year so she can go. I hope Sharon doesn't come back though.
They need decent talent and to get rid of the repetitive themes too.

I agree, there's more that needs changing than just the judging panel. As someone who hasn't watched in a few years, I'd certainly be tempted back by the prospect of Danni and/or Nicole returning, but I'd rather see changes to the format for me to be interested in watching again.
The biggest thing for me is that the whole idea of the show is that they are amateur performers with natural talent so what started to put me off over the last few series I watched was the way that come the start of the live shows, they were expected to be polished performers, with flashy staging, dance numbers, just OTT everything, and emphasis on them being 'ready made' popstars akin to existing popstars, and having their marketability commented on, rather than just allowing them over the course of the show to develop as performers and seeing them carve out their own niche, instead of "wow you're going to be the next Rihanna so next week you're going to sing one of her songs and dress like her" type thing. I just want to see a bunch of talented people sing and perform and develop and that's it. Strip it all back, no more professional makeovers before the live shows, allow them to sing original songs (I know it's not something they used to do but I'd like it to be introduced), and have it be a showcase for actual talent. It became a bit too much like stars in their eyes for me, and a conveyor belt to churn out carbon copies of existing pop faves. It became too obvious that it's just a cynical money making scheme for Cowell and co rather than a talent competition.
