I know what you mean, but our US cousins have the pleasure now as well. Have you seen X Factor USA on ITV2? It's pretty much the identical format. I can't bear all the hype. I'm vaguely interested in a couple of the performances occasionally, but it's easier to just watch the clips on ITV's website. You can get through the whole show in about 20 minutes! Less this year because I skip most of the acts. 

But no, I haven't been bothered at all the last couple of years.

Not only do we have X Factor now, but we still have American Idol starting up again in January.  I'm so sick of that show causing the few shows on FOX I like to go on hiatas for like 6 or 8 weeks while Idol has to be on 3 nights a week.  Bleck.
I barely watched it last year..I quickly lost interest after the few people I really liked got voted off early.  I haven't watched X Factor..I haven't wanted to.

I don't watch reality TV.

The only exception was one year I was flipping through the channels and happened to catch Terry Fator on America's Got Talent. I watched every episode that year just to see his act.

I think he is absolutely wonderful and so did America - he ended up winning.

If you don't know who Terry Fator is, please check him out. He is an amazing ventriliquest, singer, impersonator - well it is hard to describe what he does. You need to see it for yourself.
