16.10.11 X-Factor Wk2 Sunday

Well, never has a group been so badly named - The Wanted should be re-christened The Formulaic Five and the members should take their places just behind Timmy the Dog, from the Famous Five.  The whole 'song' was a warble around the words "little bit frightening / playing with lightning" and almost made Nu Vibe look mediocre.  Yawn.

Last week, the padding was provided by Molly Coddle [Matt Cardle, if you're fussed about getting names exactly right] who warbled something or other about running for your life, and this week, Katy Perry tried to perform to X-Factor standards and nearly matched the best of the contestants.

The voting result was amazingly the first time that the two in the sing-off were, in my opinion, the two worst performers - No Vibe and Fuckie CoCozza.  As Mrs MWSC pointed out, it's also the first time where the pettiness of the judges seems to be non-existent; it's not about them and their silly games and one upmanship, and they all seem to have more respect for each other than in previous years when the 'game playing' tainted the actual result.  I get the sense that the mentors actually do like their acts as well

The chap in girl's leggings with no voice and a bad haircut was the one who should have been ejected, but unfortunately we all have to put up with the awfulness for a bit longer.  Still, they were both crap and the writing is on the wall.
