SICKLY v X FACTORY..Who's winning? COLIN HOLMES BLOG.

X FACTORY v SICKLY DUMB DANCING.


X factor has lost several million viewers because it has lost it's ability to entertain all ages. The judges are beginning to lose control of their comments as the media pound the show for it's repetition and backstory built-up scandals and intrigues. The media love kicking a donkey when it's on the way down but the programming hasn't helped. For the first time I am not really interested in who's going to sing next. There are a couple of singers I watch perform their songs but most of the time my finger is on the fast-forward button and then on Sunday I pick up the last fifteen minutes. What else do you need ? If it wasn't for the fact that I am involved in radio I doubt if I would bother watching it at all. Bringing back Simon Cowell would be a good move at this moment but we all know he is hoping the American decline in the ratings of the American version of the show means he must stay on the panel there.

Strickly manages to entertain through Amateur and professional dancers performing in Glitzy surroundings and over-the top judges who know what they're talking about. We want to hear what they say and the way they say it. There's sometimes a little controvesy, sometimes a few mistakes,often some bad jokes, and often some very enjoyable dancing, and with a tighter Sunday show often with a guest singer it is definitely winning the ratings contest. If this continues Mr Cowell will have to make a few changes; if not next year then immeadiately. It needs a few injections of blood to keep it warm!
