I am in two minds, part of me feels its a huge shame as I’d absolutely love saturday nights to return to what they should be, but the other part feels like it’s for the best.

still pressed over how they completely ruined 2015's potential (louisa johnson, 4th impact, anton stephans, mason noise, kiera weathers, che chesterman, bupsi, lauren murray, reggie n bollie) by having 2 elims a week, throwing caroline/olly in the presenting gig, and replacing Louis/Nicole with Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw

the finalists were a great lineup and they just... ruined it

It died years ago anyway so it is what it is. I’d be more concerned about The Voice getting axed.

Yeah sadly it lost its way. At its best it was amazing. But 2013 onwards it was rubbish. I assume Simon has a very similar show in the pipeline though. Basically X factor with a new name

They were never gonna top this year. 2008. Not a bad singer there at all. Love how Laura was given most of the vocals on this. Also how underrated were Rachel, Austin and Girlband. They sound incredible on this

Yeah it's time to unplug it and stop the suffering. It had a great run. 17 years is a great achievement.

X Factor didn't last that long in my nation


we after a short while saw no potential in this, since it had no added value for our music charts




one of my most watched talent shows was Popstars, i liked that, and also with the celebrity ''mystery popstars'' where you had to guess who was behind the coloured masks



our most famous tv judge HenkJan Smits, is either now a tv presenter for a home selling show ''Huizenjacht'' which is basically our own ''escape to the country'' but then different, not just the countryside

+ he also has been a jury member for us at eurovision song contest, few times already recent years, his taste is still the same as it was on Popstars, X Factor, Idols, more going for radio friendly/mainstream songs for his 12p/10p/8p





back on topic, what an achievement this long, but recent years the winners were all just duds ( x factor celebrity was entertaining though, acts like Vinnie Jones, Martin Bashir were really amazing, even if just no hopers)

It was messed about too much in the end.
It was fading really badly in the last 2 series, for me anyway.

It's like the end of an era but expected really.

It will come back in time, just like BB but needs a rest.

Simon can focus on his other shows.

You shouldn't change what isn't broke and they messed about with the format too much.

I will miss it but I watched it more out of habit in the end.

It has produced some big stars though. The most shocking being Rylan who has just done so well for himself.
