Fans of the Channel [V] Taiwan reality TV talent show Lollipop have been lambasting the second season online.

The new season, with 20 fresh faces aged between 15 and 25 hoping to fill the shoes of the highly popular six-member boyband Lollipop, is now showing on Channel [V] Taiwan (StarHub Channel 102) on Mondays to Fridays at 11pm.

But netizens have been complaining that the second batch of male participants are not as good-looking as their seniors, do not dance as well, and are not natural or entertaining enough on the programme.
