Tonight on Fox, but sure to check out the 3rd season premiere of THE X FACTOR.  The lone holdover from last year’s panel of judges (besides Simon of course) is Demi Lovato, as X FACTOR UK pro Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio join the group.  Already, one episode in, the ladies seem to have a great rapport, and they’ve spoken more words than Britney Spears (who I love, don’t yell at me) did all season last year.  Kelly and Paulina seem to really know their stuff, too, which helps when determining who is or isn’t a great singer!

In tonight’s premiere, airing at 8/7c, you will see great singers, okay singers, adorable singers, bad singers, horrific singers, and this one singer who I think was judged unfairly in her favor. No Mario Lopez in sight, but his voice is omnipresent as he fills us in on what we’re watching.  If you like the show, you’ll enjoy the premiere.  If not, then not.
