Simon Cowell is already planning changes for the 4th season of X Factor. Assuming there is going to BE a 4th season. The ratings have been under 2.0 in the last few weeks. But maybe FOX will figure the devil they know, is better than the devil they don’t.
I guess he figures 4 times the charm?
Simon dished about his future plans with Zap2it after the Top 6 results show.
“We have an idea in our heads,” he tells Zap2it and a small group of reporters backstage after “The X Factor” Top 6 results show. “We learned a lot about what we did wrong and what we did right. Things I think would make the show more exciting. But most importantly is we have to trust our A&R abilities, that this show can find better artists that anyone else. That’s the future of the show.”
Simon confirms that the show could switch to a one night format like Dancing with the Stars did this fall.
“I think that’s gonna be the pattern going forward,” he says. “That’s how we started in the U.K. — we started off making one-hour shows and 90-minute shows, and now you have two-hour shows and two-and-a-half hour shows and they’re like marathons. You know, I like two-hour shows. Everything’s contained.”
