X Factor is NOT as big as American Idol, why would you compare the two?

American Idol has 30 millions...

Some of the finale's had 35M+ and like 90M votes.



- X-factor is a non event outzside UK
- why pushing where you already succeed ? that is the question ...



Time to Work !

Why dont people understand. Obviously Idol is going to have more viewers. USA has a population of ~300 million people. But compared to the UK, X Factor is just as big. Look at it this way. Around 1/6 of the Uk pop watch X Factor, only 1/10 USA pop watch American Idol. Get it now

when comparing with viewers to population i would say its a big as american idol. it averages 12-13 million viewers every week. ~60mil population. Its BIG alright. The most watched show in the UK without a doubt. It may be rubbish, but it brings in the viewers.

They maybe pushing as the ps3 has been outselling it from slim according to vgc. In the UK, the PS3 is still more expensive than the X360 elite. 360 elite is £199, PS3 is £249.
