X-Factor Ratings Plunge Again Leaving Simon Cowell Red-Faced After Boasts

"X-Factor" cast

The ratings for Fox's "X-Factor" talent show, starring greedy Simon Cowell, who bragged that it would beat his former show "American Idol" have plunged again. Ratings are down by an additional 10% proving Cowell's boasts wrong.

The show has been plagued by scandal and controversy which turned viewers off, rather than boosting ratings, which are half "American Idol" numbers, but that too is on the decline. This talent show genre is worn out and too much. Enough already.

99% of the judges know nothing about talent, are being paid to be controversial and start fake disputes and rivalries. At the end of the day, this erodes the quality of music being released, as a number of the songs springing from these shows are hit with copyright infringement lawsuits or claims of the same.

In Some Ways Yes, In Other Ways No

The Real Housewives Of Atlanta

Has the reality show Basketball Wives set in Miami, stolen the crown of the Atlanta show the Real Housewives Of Atlanta. Basketball Wives is the newer show and has become more popular than the latter on blogs and in the pop culture news stream, but the Real Housewives Of Atlanta still has higher ratings.

The alleged departure of Evelyn Lozada could throw a monkey wrench in ratings that have consistently climbed throughout the three seasons of the show. With her leaving, will the show be able to catch up in the ratings against their fellow southern belles.

Charlie's Angels TV Show Gets Cancelled Like A Bad Check

Costly Reboot Goes Bust

Charlie's Angels 2011 was an expensive flop. Side Bar: that girl on the right looks like Ana Nicole Smith.

You guys remember that reboot of the show "Charlie's Angels" that I slammed on the site within hours of its debut last month. Well, it got cancelled after only four episodes. Uh oh (*goes under desk and hides from cast and crew*). The original "Charlie's Angels" debuted a little before I was born, but I saw episodes of it later in the 1980s (you know, when my brain started growing).

Spelling created or produced so many television shows and that was one of his most famous. It helped to buy that huge house in Bel Air that his widow recently sold. But I digress, I didn't appreciate the reboot last month. It didn't do the original any justice. It was high tech, but somewhat corny and lacking theatrical quality. I saw the first episode, because someone else in the room was watching it and I was too tired and sleepy to get up out of the chair (yes, blogging really takes it out of you).

Ashton Kutcher in "Two And A Half Men"

According to Radar Online, ratings for the CBS sitcom "Two And A Half Men" have plummeted since Hollywood star, Ashton Kutcher, grabbed the reins. The opening week with Kutcher drew high ratings of 28.7 million viewers, which the Judiciary Report believes was based on curiosity from viewers, after the big advertising campaign, announcing him as Charlie Sheen's replacement, after the latter had a massive meltdown (see: "winning" but truthfully, he wasn't, as what he was doing is called "whining" and "wining"). Ratings are now down to 15.8 million viewers.

Hollywood loves youth and Kutcher does provide that, but though Sheen is nearly 50-years-old, he is clearly the better actor. You can't even compare the two. I don't agree with his personal life, regarding the drugs, prostitutes, assaults and faithlessness, but producers did not choose the best replacement. There's nothing wrong with being young or old, but to choose an actor based on youth is not a good idea.

Ratings Are Half What 'American Idol' Pulled In

X-Factor cast

In spite of the fact "American Idol" ratings have been steadily declining since 2008, former talent judge Simon Cowell's new show, "X-Factor" fared even worse in its U.S. debut, with half the ratings of its predecessor. Has the world had its fill of bad, cheesy karaoke music and mean judges that know nothing about music and real talent (See: Simon Cowell arrogantly failing to spot Jennifer Hudson's talent, then making the same mistake again with Susan Boyle).

Simon Cowell's new face

Even in light of all the publicity stunts Cowell engaged in to launch "X-Factor" coupled with a tremendous amount of costly advertising and a new plastic surgery issued face (which looks painful, might I add) it has greatly underperformed (both the show and his face). The byproducts of these shows inevitably end up being soulless, derivative music the public can do without.
