Fox’s new singing competition, “The X Factor,” has won a second season. The network said Wednesday that it would bring the series back next year, potentially extending the scheduling pattern that features “X Factor” in the fall and “American Idol” in the spring.Mike Darnell, the president <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/yachimeibai/"><strong>烤瓷牙美容术</strong></a> of alternative entertainment for Fox, said in a statement that the decision to order a second season was a “complete no-brainer.”Regular telecasts of “The X Factor,” created by Simon Cowell, have averaged about 13.5 million viewers since the series started in September. It has dramatically improved Fox’s performance on Wednesday and Thursday nights, <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/xiaotuixizhi/"><strong>å�¸è„‚瘦腿</strong></a> but it has underwhelmed the television industry, in part because “Idol” has higher ratings and in part because Mr. Cowell said ahead of time that he expected 20 million viewers to tune in. In <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/ebuchuzhou/"><strong>郑州é¢�部除皱</strong></a> an interview last week, Mr. Cowell said he had overstated the ratings potential of the series but he expected the ratings to pick up when the viewer voting period begins on Wednesday night.“When we go live,” he said, “I do think we’re going to see a real difference.”Last week, Fox announced that “X Factor” viewers would be able to vote by calling, texting, sending a Twitter direct message or using a Verizon mobile phone app.Mr. Darnell noted in his statement on Wednesday that <a href="http://inbookmark.com/mybookmark.php"><strong>阴茎å†�é€*</strong></a> “The X Factor” had “won every night it’s been on the air,” referring to the 18-to-49-year-old demographic. In that category, regular telecasts of the program have averaged a 4.7 rating and an 11 share.
