Not sure if anyone has mentioned this already on EDF but is this the worst X factor in history?

I know we finally got rid of Honey G last week, how she was actually taken to the live shows is just beyond belief but the rest of the contestants are not good at all. That Matt Terry guy is really overrated in my opinion, I did like 5AM but the more I hear them the less I like them.

Is it just me?

Am I being over critical?

LOL


I think the judges are so insincere and I didn't recognize Nicole #too-much-surgery?


And the singing? Oh dear. Then the outfits..... One looked like a Christmas Tree, but blue.

We had horror-shivers at Simon's open shirt and hairy chest.


We only had it on this Saturday to reaffirm why we don't watch it

I very much doubt it's the worst ever. It's always been total shit, but you're just getting to the point where you can't take it anymore.


I watched it (well the live shows) for a couple of years, going back a few years now. I'd even go so far as to say I enjoyed it as a guilty pleasure. But then I just couldn't be bothered with it anymore. I don't think it had dropped in quality, because it never had quality. I think I'd just had my fill.


See also The Apprentice. Used to be the only reality series I'd call myself a "fan" of (I enjoyed watching how clueless they all were). This series I just haven't been able to motivate myself to watch a minute of it. Just not interested anymore.



So basically, I think you've probably just had enough X Factor in your life.

Apprentice and X-Factor... both only worth watching for the disastrous car-crash performances, and even then the novelty wears off pretty quickly. I'm not entirely sure where tomorrow's essential musicians are hiding right now, but I suspect it's not singing Britney Spears songs on ITV.

Having had to endure X-Factor week in week out for approx 165 years, with barely any Saturday nights out during that time, Mrs. adonirum declared a few months ago "This is c**p this year", and promptly stopped watching. Believe you me, that really is a yardstick with which to measure it, so yes, it must/has to be !! (As usual, not seen it myself).

I think you are right, maybe I've mature & realised how rubbish it really is lol


You are right Beej - I do need to take back my dignity :)


Otta - The Apprentice has also got to pot, the contestants are pathetic this year. I can't understand how these ppl run their own businesses!


Think I may need to take up a new hobby!

If they had competent contestants, the programme would be really boring and even fewer people would watch it .....


It's not a real competition, is it. It's television.


Sorry to say I do still watch it, though this may be the last time. It's a tired old formula which they've tweaked a bit over the years but not tweaked enough to rekindle interest.


As for X Factor, I have never seen it apart from on Gogglebox.


Apart from not wanting to listen to crap music, the sight of Simon Cowell's smug face just turns my stomach :(


ETA: Mind you, I'm beginning to feel the same about that woman on The Apprentice. Karen Brady?

It's crappy Saturday TV for sure, (much like SCD and IACGMOOH)but it does make me laugh sometimes. And what with the way the world is going slightly mad, i'm good with a bit of Saturday crap TV.


But, do I care who wins?


NOPE, and once it's over I couldn't give a toss about any of it.


Now when's Britan's Got Talent on next?

Huge sigh of relief it's all over now & the winner is Matt Terry?? How did that happen?

Well I am confident to say I won't be tuning in next year after this series, but the proof will be in the pudding!

Saturday nights are free now & hopefully be used in a more productive way, maybe watching some paint dry :) lol

      Holland & Barrett is coming to Lordship Lane

      By jazzer · Posted

      Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next.

      I don’t know what the shop was originally next to the big St Christopher’s but if Holland and Barrett are taking it over then surely it’s good to have a choice on Lordship Lane? The Camberwell H&B is always empty but the Brixton branch busy.  I remember when the Marks & Spencer food shop was Iceland? Now the M&S is a very busy store and at the time regenerated the high street!

      Nor would I have done, but it came up when I googled John Lewis reviews. Do you not trust TrustPilot reviews? Even allowing for the fact that many people only post reviews when they have had poor service, 27% one star reviews is indicative of something wrong, I would say. That's 27% of 76,392 reviews. That's an awful lot of people who don't  think the service they got from John Lewis was even worth two stars, let alone more. Screenshot attached.
