Default Strongest year since series 2?

Series 2 was my favourite series but series 5 is slowly creeping up behind it. During series 3 and 4 we had one or two really good ones and everyone else were average. But this year its really becoming a strong year. With the exception of the boys each category has at least 2 who could easily go on to win, and we also have a variety of acts this year rather than the usual come-on-and-sing-a-ballad type.

So yeah, I think this year so far is the best since series 2 and I think the live shows are going to be tough especially in the later stages.

This series is amazing, there are so many that I love this year. This is looking like a great series so far and hope that they pick the right people for the live shows.

I agree, but I'd go as far to say there are also a few boys that could steal it. There are a few boys who could suprise on the live shows, but I definitely think this year could match/or even surpass Series 2.

This year is the best so far, we don't know how good the acts will be live yet. Shayne Ward's year is second best (think thats series 2), and 3 and 4 are the worst.

This series is shaping up to be great, I think it'll only benefit from last series poor range of talent. It's sort of like the effect BB8 had on BB9 (Made it seem a lot better)

I agree. Series 3 was only good because of Leona. Series 2 was fantastic.
Which one was Maria in?

Series 2 will never be beaten for me. It was such an amazing series. Series 3 I only loved for Leona. Series 1 I didn't really like but watched for Cassie and the fourth only Same Difference. I can't really remember any people so far but when the numbers go down I probably will.

This series is easily the best yet and we aren't even into the live shows
Series 3 was my favourite and best for talent but this series has overtaken it

I loved season 3, and I think this year has been fab so far so i think it could be the strongest series yet depending on what happens
