SIMON'S BACK! X-FACTOR

I hope so as well Canear. I always enjoyed XFactor. Love the production and mentoring.

Me too. Perhaps with Alex and Sierra being successful they opted to give it another chance.

I hope that Mario Lopez is the host again .......

The BIG THING is a knowledgeable judging core that is successful and not catty or silly.

Simon is great but Demi hell no, Nicole hell no, Mariah, hell no.

I'm enjoying the UK version of the show.

Me too Badger. Love that my local TV station is carrying it. Looks great on HD.

If Simon brings it back to the U.S. he really needs some great judges. I wonder if he could get Seaton Osbourne? She was awesome on UKXfactor. Mel B. Is already on AGT so I don't think she would do twoUS shows. Love her on UKXfaxtor.

I wonder if Simon could get Kelly Clarkson to be a judge/mentor. She seems to be on 'maternity leave' right now and would probably like something where she could be in one place right now.

Who do you think the final 3 is going to be? I think Fleur, Andrea and Ben are the most likely with Stereo Kicks being a spoiler. I was disappointed that Only The Young got eliminated; I liked them.

I don't think Sharon Osbourne would do an American version of "The X Factor" but who knows? She sounded pretty down on reality competition shows in general when she left the UK show.

5th Harmony is doing super well!!  Their current single is #4 on iTunes Pop chart and #9 on the overall singles chart.  I see them on so many shows.  Looks like they are the only true breakout act to come from the American X-Factor.

Yes Simon sure does know how to pick groups.

Yep!  Not that 5H will ever be as big as 1D

But color me surprised 5H is doing really really well.

By far the most successful of any American XFactor Acts.

Alex and Serena seem to have fizzled.

The boys I thought would be successful had 1 kinda hit and thats that.

Bea Miller is doing pretty well. She's working incredibly hard. I'm starting to see more and more of her with the upcoming release of her album.

I saw that Bea has a couple songs on iTunes, which is great, but I don't see her anywhere like 5H. They are all over the place. Hopefully Bea will have as much success.

I guess you could say she's still somewhat in the beginning stages but she is around and getting around more as she goes. No it's not 5H levels but it's great that she's out there in the capacity that she is currently is.

5H won several Teen Choice Awards last night!  Worth It is my default ringtone   Love that song!

Bea Miller won one also.  Choice Breakout Star or something like that. 

I think those two acts are going to be the big success stories from the 3 seasons of X-Factor USA.

Congrats to Bea! 

Cool!

Fifth Harmony are doing really well! So two success stories.

I watched a movie this weekend I bought at Walmart. It;s called A Walk Through the Tomstones and stars Liam Neeson as an ex-cop turned unlicensed PI. Well there was this young black kid who latches on the Liam. I thought he looked familar then when I checked IMDB it was Astro from Xfactor. Seems he has been in a few movies since Xfactor.

A few movies and a short lived TV drama on FOX.

Astro is doing well. As well as Kat did when first off Idol. He is a decent actor. 

I will have to Google Bea as I don't remember her.
