He should have just kept the series over the pond. That's the thing his arrogance didn't let him see, X Factor was the wrong time, wrong cast, wrong SHOW for a US audience that was moving on to a new AI and had a new spin of a show like The Voice.

There just wasn't enough to distinguish that show from AI and AI at least has a new cast.

I do feel bad for Nicole though. She's been trying for forever to have a successful career, all the way since her Eden's Crusb days and it just seems like PCD was as close as she came to being on top and truly successful. That's a shame.
