I mean come on.. it's so clear that these people have been 'scouted'.

It's wrecking the whole idea of auditions.

I was so excited for it this year, hoping it'd be like last year, but no. They decide to make it uber fake. The ratings will continue to drop if it continues like this.

Can we not just have a different show with totally new/different judges?

Hell, bring back "Popstars" even... no live shows or anything.

I haven't watched this show in years and gave it a go again this weekend to see what it's like these days. I was shocked when all the backing dancers came on, I didn't know you could organise for that now just for an audition.

That's new this year.. christ, it's awful isn't it??

Last year was actually really good, but I'm worried for this year. Hopefully it's only the auditions that are like this.

It's a mess.

You're going from one act being judged by their performance because of videos and backing dancers. Then going to another act being judged purely on their voice because they didn't choose the dancers etc.. it leaves a very unfair playing field for a lot of acts and makes the show look a joke.

I agree I don't know if its the dancersr or the whole slick chorography but it just seems too fake this year. Like they sourced out 12-20 acts and most of those will make the live shows.
