The judges certainly dont!
I tried to giveThe X Factorthe benefit of the doubt this season.
But if the judges cant even remember these peoples names, why should viewers?

Update:Annies recap of the finals is live.
I wanted to likeThe X Factormore.
There was fun to be had within this crapfest, I just knew it!
Above all, the show is just devoid of any real character.
At this point its like an unintentional parody of a reality show with zero sense of humor about itself.
Ive had trouble finding a way to lovingly tease something that has no soul.
L.A. Reid cant even bring himself to remember his acts names.
Occasionally she and Simon engaged in lifeless little tiffs.
I dont think Britney and L.A. have ever looked at each other directly.
(I cant even imagine it happening!)
Its his show, and hes embarrassed, and he doesnt care enough to inject any life into it.
But hecould thats whats so disappointing to me.
You knew he wanted to create genuine TV moments, so it was easy to let that happen.
Theres no sense of camaraderie between the mentors and their charges, or even among the acts themselves.
Everyones so uncomfortable, you almost dont want to believe theyre even on the same show.
Whats especially horrifying is that the contestants know the judges dont care but what can they do?
And one of ems about to get a $5 million recording contract!
Seems hard to believe, really.
Tonight the Top 3 acts Fifth Harmony,Tate Stevens, andCarly Rose Sonenclar willduet with celebs.
The girl group earned some of their best raves after performing Give Your Heart a Break andSkyscraperthis season.
Not an earth-shattering performer, but who really is?
Who do you think will win and to answer my aggressively bleak inquiry: Do you even care?
