Everything that is wrong with television today
11 February 2018
I have seen every single episode of the first season, so I can say that I've experienced sufficient content to make a very informed decision.

The whole show feels extremely forced and not organic. Sure, these type of shows have a decent amount of scripted and unoriginal content, but this show takes the cake. For example Diddy introduces an excruciatingly forced catchphrase "Eat!", but took it on himself to make it a catchphrase instead of letting it actually become one. And Khalid, please put down the air horn!

The judges and Fergie are really not very likable. I went in really liking Meghan Trainor, but she exposed a very important flaw of the show - the fact that the judges are extremely able to manipulate the competition. That being said, she didn't deserve the Jason Warrior set-down. I knew that guy was a manipulative slimeball the first moment I saw him.

Aaaaannd then there's the whole auto-tune issue. This show is definitely auto-tuned. Sadly, this is a HUGE problem. People become fans thinking that these people are more talented than they actually are.

Honestly I wasn't going to write a review, then I found out that this was renewed for a second season. Wow. Did the executives only look at the viewership without actually looking at the content?
