I saw a repeat of last week's show Saturday night when I was home.

Awful... they should really stop the show.

Keith Duffy was awful.
The judges are still awful.
The majority of the performers were hotel/pub acts.

The voting system is dreadful too. Because the show is of such a small scale, the top 8 they have from each venue are dire and the most talented (or potential best act) does not go through. Becuase there isn't many votes, a poor advertising campaign in a local area can almost guarantee you a spot in the final 12.

All the finalists are very samey this year (similar to every other year). Decent looking blokes (except that god awful bald giant) who can hum a tune and play a bit o' guitar.

Awful.

I wouldn't watch even if I was at home.
