The original trio of Simon/Sharon/Louis worked really well and ideally that panel should return but last night in the auditions I thought the ones without Dannii were more enjoyable because I think Simon, Cheryl and Louis worked well together. When Dannii returned it was suddenly cold, and not enjoyable. Now the strange thing is I like Dannii but imo shes just there serving no purpose other than to suck the life out of the judging panel. Last year it was flat and it was this year until last nights show.

yeah
danniis not very good IMO

[Arneldo]

I didn't even she was gone for half the show yesterday, she never has anything intresting to say.

[Billy]

Don't agree. She brings glamour to the show IMO, and I think she's the only straight talking one in the panel. Remember Niki, who went out of tune most nights yet the judges still managed to praise all her performances, except Dannii who actually spoke the truth.
IMO, she definitely serves a purpose, she got two acts in the final last year, she's doing something right.
She's the most hands on mentor aswell, as according to her three acts she was always in tutoring them, especially before the first show when she was apparently in every day, which, considering Sharon didn't see her girls once, is great.

[Hugo]

Yeh she has, she's useless. I'd rather Simon, Louis and Cheryl or Sharon aswell. I hope Sharon comes back.

I did say I like Dannii and this thread isn't about her skills as a judge, its just whether she gels in well with the panel or not and IMO she doesn't. And with Cheryl there, Dannii isn't really providing the glamour anymore ...

But you said you don't think she serves no purpose, which I don't agree with.
Cheryl isn't glamorous, I still see her as the chavvy tramp she was when she won PSTR, although I do like her now.

Cheryl is by far better looking than Dannii is and I'm sure most males would agree. But you're not getting my point. I'm not criticising her judging/mentoring because I think shes good, I mean she serves no purpose in terms of chemistry on the panel, shes just there.

Dannii minogue and cheryl cole bring nothing to the show! Both are the same, flat, dull... Just 2 PLASTICS on a tv show. The old pop idol judges are better but i dont watch the X factor to watch the judges...

*sack dannii and her mini me*

[Amy]

I have to say I prefer Cheryl. Dannii is never there, when she is she does not make that much of an impact. I still miss Sharon though. Wish it was Simon, Cheryl, Sharon and louis

[jonsep]

cant stand sharon the least shes on tv the better for me

[andyman]

Bring back doctor fox!

[Sam]

Dannii is a pointless judge. I find her really dull and boring.

[Spike]

I like Dannii but so far this series she has added nothing to the show.
I think Simon, Cheryl and Louis are a great combination and so far it looks like Dannii is just there to make the numbers up

Because it's only 2 weeks into the show and they have done nothing but focus on Cheryl.

[MR.K!]

ive never liked Danni. As louis said she hasent had any hit singles so who is she to pass jugment on others ? I agree that she is cold and the show is certainly not enjoyable with her on the pannel.

Btw has she had a face lift because on last nights show her face looked all streched and thin !?

She probably overdid the botox.

But she has had some success, shes had quite a lot. Every song she has ever released has gone to number 1 in the UK dance charts and shes had 9 top 10 hits, 4 of which were top 5. Shes had 14 songs in the top 20 and in total has had 19 songs in the top 40. Shes also had a big career in theatre and has a massive following around the world. Not the biggest success ever but she is a lot more successful than many realise.

[Willz]

In all fairness, they can't really get rid of her considering her act won last year.

Dannii has been successfull. She's had plenty of top 10 hits and UK Dance Chart hits. What makes her any less relevant than Simon and Louis?

[SammyAyee]

Yeah i noticed that when it was Louis Cheryl and Simon it was good then Dannii came back it just went weird

[Dan_]

I don't think she fits in any more, especially now that Cheryl is on the panel.There just seems to be a real lack of chemistry between her and the other judges, so little in terms of interraction.It's almost like she's a stranger.

[Bells]

I think Cheryl, Simon and Louis are much better - I didn't like Dannii as a judge last year (I think she's the least worthy to be a judge out of all of them), and I haven't warmed to her this year. However, in her defence, she is a good mentor... which is more behind the scenes, but she does well in that role since she lends a lot of support, whilst Louis/Simon and even Cheryl might just be more interested in what they want and nothing more.

Also, I do miss Sharon. Her and Dannii just didn't click at all last year, and I think if there had to be four, it should be Cheryl, Simon, Louis & Sharon.

[Fom]

I noticed this alot when i watched it last night... the first half was fun then when Dannii appeared again, it all went boring again... its like she is holding everyone back!

[AndyShields]

I don't think four judges works particularly well to be honest. Cheryl isn't great but Dannii's very bland, her two acts made the final because they were pretty boys, one with a sob story and one with a great voice.
Get rid of Dannii and keep it a panel of three
