Some of the performances on this show are outstanding, yet it seems the best performances are rewarded with eviction, while the worst performers are continually kept in the show either because they are friends with Simon Cowell, or because they happened to perform early enough in the show to get the safe seat. With shows like this the final result of who is evicted should be cut and dry: the worst performer is out. Otherwise, the viewer gets a horrible feeling in their gut. It should at least be close! Martin Bashir is awful every week. He's unemployable in the real world, but keeps getting saved BY THE JUDGES over amazing, showstopping contestants. This doesn't normally happen on the XFactor but it obviously is this year because Simon is biased. If Martin had come on to the regular XFactor, unknown to Simon Cowel, Simon would have read him to filth and evicted him well before the live shows. Here, he selfishly keeps him while sending home contestants who've worked their balls off, simply because he likes Bashir as a person. That alone makes this show trash and I'm not going to watch it any more.
