That'll never happen, not these days. So may as well rest on the laurels from before!

[reece(:]

They just need to get rid of it altogether

[Owoaje1993]

unlikely I think its most likely simon,Ayda,Robbie and Louis would be back as the panel again next year however I reckon a 5th judge and a fifth category would be on the show

[rionablue]

No way Sharon and Louis were on it far too long as far as I am concerned. They need people who know what they are talking about. I like Robbie Williams and Simon is always gona be a judge. However Ayda was useless, picked the wrong acts for the live shows, sided with her husbands groups when it came to singoffs and that lovey ****e between them made me sick. Louis T was also a huge let down. Sour faced, trying to say constructive things etc. He was the worst member of One Direction to put on that panel. Niall would have been mega. I still watch it but find it far less interesting than it used to be

[DouglasS]

Louis and Sharon are and were the two best judges.

Simon, Louis, Sharon and Robbie would be good imo.

Nile rodgers could probably do it tbf

For the past few years, the show's went on a steady decline with tragic production decisions, and the gap in quality between the Simon/Louis W/Nicole/Sharon panel compared to the Simon/Robbie/Ayda/Louis T panel REALLY shows. The fact that they've constantly made the wrong decisions makes me convinced the judging panel will either stay the same next year or get even worse.

I didn't watch this year, but whenever I happened to switch it on, it felt so static. If you look at the statistics as well, the ratings slip by over a million each year so it'll only keep dipping in popularity. I'm not sure Louis or Sharon coming back would really save that

[Strictly Jake]

Think Sharon is over it doubt she would ever return. But yeah I do miss Louis. I also miss the xtra factor.

It needs a couple of years rest. Then come back with the amount of live shows it should always have and xtra factor. Room auditions and country house boot camp plus a decent panel and it may have a chance. If it returns exactly the same as it was this year I'm not watching

Simon said in an interview (was featured on some GMB segment a couple of days before the X Factor final) that he's hoping Robbie/Ayda/Louis will be back in 2019
