"It does feel like where we were 10 years ago with 'Idol,'" Cowell said of the U.S. "Factor" in an interview last week. "It's like new territory again. I've had to shed everything we did with the UK [version] and get into my head that this is a brand-new audience who actually knew nothing about this show.… It was really hard, first of all, because I've been doing the show for seven years. You sort of assume that everybody knows what you're doing and then you quickly realize, 'God, no one's got a clue.' You've got to explain the whole process and you've gotta get people interested from scratch."

Lol, he ripped the idea off Pop Idol from the UK to start with, then invented X Factor and American Idol.

What a pen!s

Tonight's show is now over and the remaining 32-acts have been cut to just 16.

I'll add my thoughts in a spoiler tag below, so if you haven't watched it yet and don't want to spoil the suspense, don't read my spoiler and don't read anything else on the internet as I am sure it gets around quickly!

Spoiler

I'll give my thoughts on the cuts group by group.

Groups
To be honest with you, I really could care less about all of the groups, so I am rather impartial as to who got cut and who gets to move on to the live shows. But with that said, I would have kept "The Anser" before keeping either of the three bigger groups she kept, with the Brewer Boys being the group that I think currently has the best chance at going deep in the competition.

Boys
The boys were a tough group to cut in my opinion, because you can look at this group with so many different perspectives and come up with a different top four each time. My personal top four would have been Phillip Lomax, Nick Voss, Tim Cifers, and Marcus Canty. They took Astro (as it appears they are going to call him for the remainder of his time on the show) and Chris Rene instead of Nick Voss and Tim Cifers. I can be on board with this, but I'm just not Astro and Chris Rene can adapt enough to bring something different each week. I look forward to seeing what they can do and I can't fault Mr. Reid for his decisions regardless of the outcome.

Over 30's
I'm pretty bummed out about this group. If it was up to me, I would have kept Josh, Elaine, and Stacy for sure, with the last spot going to any of the guys BESIDES Dexter. I really can't understand her decision to keep him and I can only hope that I feel this way because the producers or mentors picked the worst song possible for him for the Judges Houses performance. But based on everything I have seen from him, he should certainly not be going through. Elaine was so good and I can't believe Dexter was put through instead of her!

Girls
Lets start with the fact that Rachel & Drew are the two best contestants in this competition so it's no surprise that they made it through (I would have stopped watching if that weren't the case).

On the other hand, Simone and Tiah are two of the worst contestants in the competition and I can't believe he put them through. Especially Simone, who put forth the least amount of effort and showed the least amount of interest in actually trying to COMPETE!

He could have easily put Melanie through in place of either of those two and saved himself the embarrassment of having to put 5 girls through to the live shows. He could have also put Tora or Jazzlyn through to round out what would have been a dream four, but now he has three great acts and two who have no business being in the live shows!

wow, i read all that, and the only thing i wanted to add was this...

"I could care less"... thats awful english. I couldn't care less is what u all mean. If you could care less,t hat implies you care more than people who dont care. So ssssh.

And i might watch your first live show. Ill bet anything someone does a coldplay song.

The 5 black guys could win it all if Paula works with them, they are the only group woth watching , can't believe they kept the Brewer boys and the makeup group. But LA Reid said the groups was really weak
I am rooting for wolfman but don't expect him to get many votes from America

I don't think there's a chance that a group wins it.

strange how the odds favorite is Melanie who got cut then brought back as the 17th contestant. Tells me that the bookmakers are confused and leaving some great odds on others to bet for.

ever.

This is our 7th season of XFactor, and the best group ever was JLS, they came 4th.

I watched X Factor for some background noise last night and what I heard wasn't all that impressive.

I'll watch it again when I can focus and hopefully that will change things a bit.

I did find it annoying that the host had to continually cut each judge off throughout the entire show; came off as very unorganized and amateur. But, maybe that's the whole point?

Anyhow, there wasn't a single elimination that I can argue with, so I am a happy camper. Just hope everyone steps up their game a bit.

Watching the second round of live shows now. I find myself losing interest in the show.

But, with that said, why on earth didn't Klinkman tell us he had such a great voice!

that was the toughest competition i have ever seen

there is 6 acts that can win it

astro does have the most talent even though i don't like his punk ***

the show would be much better if the judges didn't pick the songs

I think that's my whole problem. The song selections have been utter ****.

For example, Simon is killing Rachel Crow's chances by forcing her to sing these cheesy *** songs just because they're current.

It came as no surprise to me that two groups made up the bottom two tonight.

I'll never get on board with groups and it's clear that the majority of the voting audience won't either; especially considering there were plenty of acts worse than both groups (Chris Rene & Leroy Bell to name two).

However, as bad as Chris & Leroy were, I hate groups and will be happy to see them all gone sooner rather than later.
