Tonight's episode wasn't that good. The show's become even more contrived then last year and sob stories are still abound in it. In that episode I only liked Rachel, I quite liked that Alex girl but the fact that she used the suicides in her town as a sob story made me think she was kinda despicable. The last man was good I thought, I've seen worse on the live shows. The only reason he didn't get through was because he didn't have some tragic sob story so he would never generate enough phone votes to be profitable.

I'll watch Next week's but if it doesn't pick up then i'll just start watching again at Boot Camp,

My favorites from tonight were Rachel and Alex, they were both really good. I also liked that boy group at the start. I think Cheryl did a cracking job as a judge, I've warmed to her a lot but I still miss having a character like Sharon on the panel. I can't wait for next week's episode, the X Factor has gotten off to a great start.

Yeah, the dancing was worse than the singing, and the hand shakes with Holly made them look even more stupid

It was good first show, although by the end of it I was sick of hearing Dermot say "Cheryl Cole", he said it like a million times. We know her name!!

Austin was good. Always been a fan of his. He never gives up though. He has auditioned for so many things. He made it to boot camp last year as well. He's great. He was the stand out for me tonight.

Im just re-watching the show, and I just realised how much it annoys me when they say, like, all of Wales are in Cardiff!

I know like 3 people from round here, and they all went to Manchester to audition! and we live in Wales xD. Its so much closer to Manchester from here! and at a second go, we'd go to Birmingham xD.

Sorry for the mini-rant, but it really gets on my nerves! lol x

The show are getting a bit predictable. If they spend a lot of time with an person and that person seems normal then they're likely to be good. If that person claims they're going to be the next Madonna then they're likely to be rubbish.
