The X Factor USA

[QUOTE]The hosts will apparently be Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens.[/QUOTE] I was kind of looking forward to it until you said that.

Hmm interesting, I may give it a shot but I kinda agree with tater haha.

What a bad choice of hosts. I really hope you are wrong. lol

I don't think this will be as big of a hit here as it is in the UK - we have too many talent shows for people to keep up with. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens are the strangest choices for hosts I've heard in a while. Usually it's a comedian or something.

I'm going to watch the first episode or two just to see what it is all about - because of Simon. He was AI and he'll be this show, if it takes off.

When does this air?

Will Smith and Nicole Scherzinger had signed contracts to appear as judges on the show, However it has yet to be officially announced

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;225454]Is everyone excited for this? The hosts will apparently be Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. [/QUOTE] Yeah not particularly excited about the hosts, but why can't Zac Efron just do it alone and possibly with no shirt?? ;) Maybe this will be the new American Idol because that seems to be going down the drain in my eyes. It's lost my viewership with the loss of Simon, so there is that sliver of hope in the X Factor for me.

[QUOTE=InfamousJoks;225916]Will Smith and Nicole Scherzinger had signed contracts to appear as judges on the show, However it has yet to be officially announced[/QUOTE] Ugh! Even worse! I'm not even going to talk about Will Smith but Nicole is such a snooze on the Sing Off which she is currently a judge on so nothing to lure me in there. Simon really is the only that will get me to tune in right now.

I don't get why Nicole is a judge. She's not entertaing or relevant. I'll giver her the benefit of the doubt just because Simon must have seen something in her if he chose her.

I like her more there than on DWTS. [QUOTE=ILoveRW;225454]Here is the what is considered the best moment from 7 years of the UK version[/QUOTE] Best Moment? Yeah right. Predictable. I liked it better when Leona Lewis and JLS won.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;246343] Steve Jones - British presenter. Probably best known for presenting T4, a daytime show for **************] Not to mention a string of crap gameshows/Reality shows (101 ways to leave a gameshow, Awful amazing race ripoff 'The Drop Zone', cancelled in the USA but aired in the UK 'When women ruled the world')

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;246343]Judges and Hosts confirmed [B]Judges:[/B] Simon Cowell L.A. Reid - Music Producer Cheryl Cole - British singer and X Factor UK judge Paula Abdul [B]Hosts:[/B] Nicole Scherzinger - The lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls Steve Jones - British presenter. Probably best known for presenting T4, a daytime show for **************] I'm really excited for this show! I think Cheryl Cole will do well! I hope she has as much success over here as she has in the UK! I'm sure Paula will be as cooky as ever! :)

I am not sure if L.A King was the way to go. He should have went for a big name.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;272102]If the premiere next month is anywhere near as good as the UK premiere tonight then this is going to be one monster hit[/QUOTE] Aw man, they took it down. Anyway this is gonne be some funny ****.

lol I sat in the audience back in june when they came to Dallas. we sat for 6 hours, and saw about 30 singers...they only put 2 of those through to the next round

That's cutthtroat then lol. Anyway I missed the 8 minute preview from the other day was it any good?

[QUOTE=Nostalgic;277534]Only 2? That's cutthtroat then lol. Anyway I missed the 8 minute preview from the other day was it any good?[/QUOTE] Yeah one was a really young girl named Ma'ot or something like that who sung "Go put your records on" and the other was a rocker looking emo guy. The preview didn't show much beside the usual American Idol-style sob story

I'm still gonna check it out though. Hopefully Leona Lewis guest stars for a week.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;279325]Anyone watching, looks good[/QUOTE] I was planning on watching, but being it is up against Survivor I'll have to pass - at least on the first hour.

I switched over after Survivor and that guy Gio should seriously heed the message of "Pants on the Ground"
