-- Yeah!! Ozzy and his family are going to have their very own MTV reality sitcom! The Osbournes premieres tonight at 9:30pm CST on MTV! -- It sounds batty, but 'Osbournes' likable excerpt: Beverly Hills 90210 is in for a shock tonight. Check out those boxes the new neighbors' moving men are moving in. "Dead Things" it says on one. "Devil Heads" on another. "Meet the perfect American family," MTV's announcer teases. What a kidder. This bunch makes the Munsters look like Ozzie and Harriet. Meet The Osbournes: Daddy Ozzy, aging star of heavy metal, bat-biting fame; Sharon, his doting wife and manager; and two of their three charming children. Daughter Kelly, 17, has pink hair. Son Jack, 16, wears an Army combat suit. This is not as far out as it sounds. Kelly and Jack fight like cats and dogs. Their cat and dog fight, too. The Osbournes' oldest, 18-year-old Amy, had the good sense to declare herself out of this family project. MTV has dubbed The Osbournes "the first reality sitcom." And that it is. Ozzy Osbourne's family is living a situation comedy. The funniest thing is, they don't even seem to know it. Or if they do, they don't care. They wanted to do this on MTV, and they wanted to do it this way. The Osbournes is six months' worth of living 24/7 with MTV's cameras, a real-life adventure in 13 bleep-filled episodes. Like MTV's Real World, it's unscripted but edited into a story line, of sorts, to lure you back for more. The Ozzy of this un-Ozzie & Harriet household is so totally bewitched, addled and bewildered that his TV's stuck on the Weather Channel and he can't work the remote. "I'm a very simple man, and you gotta have a computer to turn this (bleep) thing on and off, man!" Ozzy shouts. Ozzy is the king of the Osbourne castle. He lolls around the house, shirtless and tattoo-strewn, watching TV, raiding the fridge and muttering mostly unintelligible comments, punctuated by his expletives. As the Oz himself commented to TV Guide after witnessing a rough cut of tonight's premiere, "It's like 25 minutes of bleeps." click for entire article
If you watch the trailer, you'll the see the Weather Channel thing. Ozzy got the remote stuck on the map of the US so whenever he tried to change the channel, another state would highlight. Then he got pissed
I want to become an Osbourne! They rule! Since I'm married, I think Ozzy will have to adopt me, but I am not picky..awesome house, too.
The funniest show I have seen on TV for years. I laughed through the entire thing. From the Remote Control thing, to the Makeup Chair fiasco, to the Security Guards face when he saw Ozzy on TV, to him dealing with his kids.. It is a Sad thing to think that Ozzy is the voice of reason in that house. He seems to be the only one that is somewhat sane! LOL The editing that MTV did was why the showed worked though. I hope that they keep it up for the rest of the shows, because if they do then this will be my new MUST SEE show.
Damnit, I missed it. I saw the cribs where they went to their house. It was awesome! The majority of the conversations went like so: Daughter to son: Get out of the way bugger. Son: Why dont you just **** off? Ozzy: You need to [incoherent babble] thats why [incoherent babble] risa muh ron oh ................... Absolute gold.
'Listen. I love you all more than life itself, but yall are f'ing mad' 'Don't get drunk or stoned' Ozzy
Yeah he said "Don't get drunk or stoned" like 5 times, but he finished it off with "And if you have sex, make sure you wear a condom."
dang, i set my vcr to tape this while i was watching the rockets game but it never turned on. i guess i need tivo. ozzy always cracks me up when he's on howard stern. knowing mtv i'll see this 10 times this week though.
It's funny because it's real. Here is this family with tons of money and fame and they're just like everyone else (well, maybe not "just" like). Lynus and I were cracking up. What a great show!
How much you want to bet that he made his kids dress up like that? They probably go to a private school and wear Tommy Hilfiger all the time....

Dunno about Jack, but Kelly really knows her sh*t, stylewise. Ozzy, much as I love him, wouldn't have the faintest idea how to steer her in that kind of direction. Her clothes and accessories are often *fantastic* vintage stuff, and according to the most recent Cribs she has *brilliant* taste in furniture - she has a fully circular sixties sectional red lounge suite! Totally mod! And a chair from the set of 2001! Envy envy envy. If I had that kind of money she and I would fight it out in LA's overpriced vintage boutiques!
