But for most of Davina's time on the show it kinda was, the real nastiness of the crowd has only come out in the last few years.

Also large groups of people can articulate, they can cheer, they can laugh, they can hold banners, and they can boo - but without the intensity of the current shows. It wouldn't take a whole lot of effort to adjust the "tone" of the crowd.

However, to me, the crowd now take more pleasure in booing, than cheering. Those celebrating get drowned, fast. Essentially the crowd are there to vent, not to support. And thats not passion...thats rage.
