But the show isn't a 'joke'

with the exception of last year's godawful series (doesn't that tell you something) it has been this way for like...eight years?
I don't think X Factor has been a bonafide talent show since Alexandra's year, and even that might be pushing it. It's weekend primetime entertainment that masquerades as a talent show. Nothing more, nothing less. And the show at its peak was riddled with joke acts and faux dramas - and so it should. If you want a serious singing competition watch The Voice

but it's ****ing dull precisely because of that
