X-Factor 2008 - general chitchat

Starts in August, with Cheryl Tweedy as a new judge, reigning champ the lovely Danielle Minogue, leprechaun svengali Louis Walsh (what's his real name again? Michael Bloggs?) and the man we love for a million million reasons and who is, actually, always right, Simon Cowell!

Are we looking forward to it? This is only my second series of X-Factor - hadn't watched it before last year. It's train-wreck TV at its best.

No pointless spammage! Or else! This thread is not for "proper" X-Factor discussion, just for general waffling about it. I'll start a proper thread once the show begins in the next couple of weeks.

my friend is on it whoooooo hes so nervous but his friend was on it and my friend lol like 2,3 year ago so he knows hes gonna be fine

loads of me friends went for it but i don't know if any of them got through i don't think they did lol

do you know eton road that was on it a couple of year ago well danny morris a band member of eton road his friend phil delahunty is on it

the person thats the best singer normally wins but the public went crazy last year and voted for personality not talent (not that leons not talented he is) thats if its not a fix

i tried to get my friend to go on it but i had no such luck

From here, the phrase "It's a fix!" is banned! Banned, I tell you!

if u say so great D but..........

it used to be but last yeat i believe its not i just hope phil gets somewhere on it

It's not a fix just because someone's favourite doesn't win. It's so annoying.

i voted for leon like 25billion times i couldnt stand rhydian right from the auditions i realy didnt want rhydian to win

Whereas I felt the other way altogether. I've no interest in Leon whatsoever and was absolutely floored when he won. I actually wanted SD to win though ha!

I always said i would never watch this rubbish, but well ermmm, i will hide behind cushion and deny all knowledge of watching. I used to watch towards the end but then last year i watched a little earlier and this year maybe from day 1 lol........mind u i never watched any reality prog, dont know how i ended up with adwd, saw it from day 1 and right from then i said KEITH!!!

i love reality shows no idea why probs because its the only thing thats ever on the tele
i hope a realy good singers on this yr with a good personality

I didn't watch the first 2 series, or the Maria show. The ONLY reason I watched ADWD at first was because there was nowt else with JB on at the time!!!!!!!!!!!!! And then I saw Keith, and we all went, "That looks like your/my bro!" Although my bro is ginge. And over 6 ft tall.
