Default Talent Contest?

I'm hating this series so far, i thought it was about finding talent? Why are they showing us all the crap people all the time? I hate watching them, i could listen to my mum and dad if i wanted to hear crap singers. It's about finding talent but it's only like 10% of it is actually showing the good singers.

If it carries on then i'm not watching untill Boot Camp.

Does anyone agree? Who else hates the deluded knobs who can't sing?

Some of the awful ones make me laugh but most of the time I am just sitting there bored of yet another crap singer.

I think it wouldn't be the same without the crappy ones, they make the show IMO because they're really funny. The supposed good ones aren't usually that good anyway, they're just okay.

The bits I've seen of it so far I've found pretty embarrassing.

Like that 'Steptoe' guy... I thought now they're just dragging people off the street to humiliate them.

And I hate how the pretend that the celebrity judges see everyone who turns up. Out of the tens of thousands who audition the judges only see, something like, 200. So they put through a lot of no-hopers for entertainment purposes.

And the chances are reduced of finding anyone good out of the show because of that.

It all seems very fake and contrived so far.
