Quotes Simon Cowell : [to a bad auditionee] You couldn't win this competition even if you were the only one in it! Connections Featured in 8 Out of 10 Cats: Episode 2. User reviews 21 Review. Top review. Become a childish "my acts better than yours" show instead of a talent show. I used to quite enjoy the X Factor when it first started, however I have been increasingly fed up with the way everybody takes to too seriously and the way the judges act like little spoilt kids especially when someone criticises "their" act.
The auditions are good though and by far the best part of the series. I always find them very funny. If the judges weren't also mentors, maybe it would improve the show and stop the stupid jibs at other judges acts.
Its just so childish. I think for the next series, I'll watch the auditions and forget the rest. Turn the clock back to the 90's and bring some decent Saturday shows back to life! Izak86 Nov 11, Details Edit. Release date September 4, United Kingdom.
United Kingdom. The X Factor. Technical specs Edit. Runtime 1 hour. Related news. Nov 10 TVLine. After twenty-four hours, the judge again meets with each contestant individually and delivers the news about whether or not they will go on to the live shows.
The live shows are often considered the peak of the entire competition, as each elimination has been leading up to this point. The acts who passed Judges' Homes are the contenders for the live shows, and the live shows contestants are the only ones who can win. Weekly, there are two shows, the first being a performance show, the second for results.
Performances Each week, the live shows are themed, and the mentors make a song choice for each of their acts to fit the theme. After a week of rehearsals the acts perform, being broadcast live. For the first week of the live shows, the public cannot vote. Instead, each judge chooses one act from their own category to immediately eliminate. However, the judges often come to the decision that one act eliminated Melanie Amarofor Season One, Diamond White for Season Two , is too good to leave and bring them back as a wildcard.
After the first show, the public is allowed to vote for their favorite acts after they sing. The public can vote for as many acts as they want, as many times a they want. They vote by calling, texting, online voting, or via the X Factor app. At the end of the show, and after the voting lines are closed, the results of the votes are broadcast the night after the performances in a results show. Results The night following the performance nights are for the results shows. Then, in a random order, the acts that are continuing to the next week are announced, leaving two.
The "bottom two" are the acts who received next to the fewest votes, after the first elimination of the night. For example, in the Top 10, the act who got 10th place in the votes would go home immediately. The acts who got 8th and 9th place in the votes would be the bottom two. Unlike the act who goes straight home, the bottom two have a chance to stay.
Both acts sing one song they believe will keep them in the competition. After singing their songs for survival, the four judges vote on which act will go home. If there is a majority of the judges voting against an act, they go home.
However, if two judges vote against one act and two against another, there is a deadlock. In this case, the act who got the fewest votes out of the two that sang for survival is eliminated.
The Semifinals come down to the Top 4 contestants, and they sing two songs each rather than just one. For the results show, there is no sing-off, instead, the contestant with the least amount of public votes is eliminated, and the remaining three go on to the finals.
For the finals night, each of the Top 3's performances are preceded by an introduction video giving a brief story on how music has affected their lives, and how desperately they want to win. There are three performances from each of the Top 3, and one of them is chosen by the contestants to reflect their musical styles.
After a break usually involving guest performances , the winner is, after about six months, the winner is finally revealed Melanie Amaro for Season One, Tate Stevens for Season Two. The Wiki.
