| The X Factor stage |
Originating from the United Kingdom, this is only the second season of The X Factor. This competitive reality game show reveals compelling stories of people who think they have a shot at winning five million dollars and a contract with Syco/Sony Music Productions. The returning judges are the obvious Simon Cowell along with L.A. Reid while the new judges are Demi Lovato and Brittney Spears. Although Simon is known for his brutal honesty, it seems as if he and Brittney traded places. Her criticism towards the contestants and her constantly saying "no" was harsh but at least she didn't lie. Simon seems to be more understanding this season with his comments,"Best contestant on this show." or "My favorite conetestant so far in this competition." Demi and L.A. Reid had true connections with the contestants and I feel that that makes a successful television show and really draws in the viewers. For example, Jillian Jensen was a contestant on the show who was bullied throughout her childhood. "When you sang, You broke my heart." Demi claimed. Demi was also bullied throughout her life but she made a statement, "look, we're on stage and the bullies are sitting on their couch, watching us on tv." I thought this was very powerful and very courageous of Demi to say.The X Factor is and overall great show. It expresses true emotions not only from the contestants but from the judges too. All in all,I would rate this show five out of five stars because of its success around the world and the opportunity it gives people to pursue their dreams.
Overall, well written with a few minor errors.
ReplyDeletethe link to the xfactor website is just for the UK version & it should probably be for the US version.
when you quoted demi, you need to fix your punctuation. it should be ...heart," demi claimed.
when you quoted simon, i would suggest mentioning the contestant he said those things to because you only really recapped one audition.
also maybe add in information about the judges. theres very little background and recap.

I liked that it was very personal and sounded like a real person wrote it. The information on the show was really good but there was not so much background of the show itself. Nonetheless, I thought it was good!

I enjoyed reading your review because I reviewed X-Factor as well. You probably should have added more information about the judges though. Also, you should've recapped more than just one audition so the readers of your review can know who else auditioned. I really like the tone of your review. It's very well written, but next time when you write a review, make sure to add in more background details.
ReplyDeleteThis explained the show very well. I wasn't bored at all and I love the Demi Lovato quote, ALthough I feel like your opinions were not expressed as much as I would like to see. Just more background should be added as well. Other than that I enjoyed this review. -Cristian G.
ReplyDeleteThere wasn't much background information on the show besides that it originated from United Kingdom. The episode recap didn't have much information on contestants besides only a few. The grammar was well but with a few errors.
