Am I the only person who doesn't get why that creature Honey G gets rave reviews from the panel?

I think it's the emperors clothes syndrome.
She speaks the same words every week !

This is only for the non cool people who watch it not the superior beings who listen while the rest of the family watch.

I am neither but I fail to see why anyone would.

Just listening to the Wales 'heartbreak' on Radio 5.

She is obviously another example of how the program is a fix. I thought it was supposed to be a singing contest and of the two she should be on Britains Got Talent which is a talent show not singing.

I'm 39, and miss proper Saturday night telly. Was only saying to the missus tonight I cant take the programme seriously this year. I hope she wins it. Does anybody think she could crack America or the world? No. And today she's on front page of the Sun - admitting drug addiction, just to get it out the way before the final obvs. The format needs scrapping.

At what point/stage does the panel turn on her,clearly she is light relief and a in-show break for the programe and having been in to my hip hop way back in 1986-88 she is not even decent..

A B C YA,would not wanna be ya...as they say.

It's a publicity stunt that gets idiots talking about it.....the sooner the gullible people stop watching this tripe the better.
James Arthur has been dead for a year in the music industry and as per usual it's about getting useless gits like him in the charts again....dire dire tripe!!

I wish people would realise this programme is solely about viewing figures and advertising revenues and has absolutely nothing to with anything else.

She won't win it, there are too many high quality acts ahead of her. Matt Terry is the future of the British music industry, Emily Middlemass is a ready made recording artist and 5am are going to be huge, not to mention Sam Lavery and Saara Aalto has got a voice second only to the likes of Leona Lewis.

But it hasn't actually been any good for years has it? Ran out of steam years ago?

When I watch some of the quality television available on Netflix and similar, I find it pretty amazing people put up with such low rent television,

I would have to ask the missus for you later,she watches it,as it happens to be on in the background i also have to occasionally watch it,it's not for me but i can tolerate it.....there are some good acts......that reach the level on occasion,expected to do well in the modern music arena..

Besides who cannot like Nicole as a judge?

I think it's a concentration level thing,it's easy on the brain.....if i was to watch a programme or film late that was good but required my full attention (example being-GOTHAM),i would rather watch x factor (i would not) but hopefully you follow my drift.

Btw the missus likes GOTHAM too....
