Britain's Got Talent fans 'done' with show after it becomes too 'predictable' and 'repetitive': 'So boring now'
Has the show run its course?Britain’s Got Talent fans are complaining over how ‘predictable’ the show has become tonight, claiming they are ‘done’ with it (Saturday, March 28).
As the latest round of auditions aired on ITV, fans took to social media to comment on what they believed was becoming increasingly noticeable to everyone – has the competition show had it’s day?
While the performances themselves drew a mix of praise and criticism, it was the judging panel and overall production that sparked the most debate.
Britain’s Got Talent has become too ‘predictable’
We saw Mizuki Shinagawa take aerial ribbon dancing to the next level, and the Key Voices choir take the stage first for an emotional performance.
We also KSI hug a contestant when he realised who he was, Epic Sax Guy (Sergey Stepanov), who went viral online for his saxophone skills.
But Sergey’s time on Britain’s Got Talent isn’t the first time he has dominated a huge stage, he performed as part of the SunStroke Project at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2017.
However, the fact that we saw a choir, a dance act, a singer, a magician and a quirky act all in one episode, it has caused a stir with fans who think it’s too ‘predictable’ now.
One fan wrote: “Awful lot of emotion seems to be used to judge these days.”

Another said: “These choirs are ten a penny. Yawn.”
While a third penned: “Seen the dangling on a silk Aact a million times. This could be any season ever of bgt.”
A fourth added: “Am I the only one done with BGT? This guy just now got a Golden Buzzer, yes a nice singer, but it has become so repetitive and predictable. The music cues, shots of the judges, the chicken soup for the soul feeling. So boring now in 2026. Is it just me?”
Golden Buzzer choice divides fans
Viewers of Britain’s Got Talent were left divided after Ted Hill landed a Golden Buzzer spot – with some accusing the judges of over-the-top reactions.
Ted, who has autism, teased he would deliver something “never before seen” before taking to the stage with a simple setup of a laptop and screen. His act turned out to be a presentation-style comedy routine, inspired by his experience giving science talks in schools.
He quickly won over the panel, joking that Simon Cowell was only his “third” favourite Simon, before turning his humour towards KSI. Amanda Holden and the audience were heard laughing throughout.
Ted’s routine focused on reinventing the phonetic alphabet, offering increasingly absurd alternatives like “aye” for A and “heebies jeebies” for H. Watching from the sidelines, Ant and Dec were clearly entertained and ultimately pressed their Golden Buzzer to send him straight to the live shows.
However, not all viewers were impressed. Some criticised what they felt was “fake laughing” from the judges, particularly Amanda. Others questioned the early Golden Buzzer moment.
Despite this, many praised Ted’s confidence and found his audition genuinely funny, making it one of the night’s most talked-about performances.
