| The Osbournes | comment |
The Osbournes was a Reality Show which aired on MTV for three seasons, 2002-2005. It followed the misadventures of the namesake family Ozzy, his wife Sharon and their children Kelly and son Jack. In the second season, Jack and Kelly's friend Rob (Robert Marcato) joins the family; the Osbournes take him in after his mother dies of cancer. Also appearing on the show was Melinda, Sharon's personal assistant. Not appearing on the show was Ozzy and Sharon's eldest daughter Aimee, who refused to be involved; Aimee Osbourne was never mentioned and when the cameras occasionally caught family photos that included her, her face was blurred out. | |

Kayfabe: The cast of the original show prided themselves on the fact their show was not scripted like most of the ones that followed. However, The Osbournes is a large reason why most of them are now, since filming in this style took a lot more time (and money) to get enough usable footage. | |

Only Sane Man | |
| The Osbournes / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Ozzy, surprisingly enough. He often reflects on how excessive the family's spending is, how senseless his children's nightlife behavior is, how they have too many animals, how nobody takes his wishes and opinions seriously and how unnecessarily hi-tech his house is ("Fucking space age shit!"). His only desires seem to be relaxing and watching The History Channel while the rest of the family indulges in their fame and fortune. | |

The Scrooge | |
| The Osbournes / int_2b851bd4 | comment |
The Scrooge: Ozzy shits himself when he knows Sharon and Kelly are going shopping and for the early part of the series how much money that Sharon spent on their house is brought up as a bone of contention. Even on his birthday, which occurred when he was away on tour, when Sharon asked him if he wanted them to come visit him on his birthday he simply said "Can't afford it, got no dough." He did grow up poor, so it kind of makes sense. And on the other, it's probably responsible for him being able to live as well as he does rather than being literally filthy rich one day and losing it all the next (like what happened to a lot of Hair Metal bands who made it, then broke it - Twisted Sister comes to mind). | |

Jaded Washout | |
| The Osbournes / int_33f095a8 | comment |
Jaded Washout: The show portrays Ozzy as a millionaire version of this. Ozzy frequently appears to be disrespected by his family, especially his wife, and comes off as actually being more sane than the rest of them. An example is when the cat gets out of the house and Ozzy, with a broken leg, chases it through trees and bushes because he doesn't want the coyotes to eat it. Kelly claims she can't do it because she has a broken leg, Jack either doesn't know or care whats going on and Sharon purposely ignores him when he asks someone to go save the cat (its revealed in the DVD commentary that Sharon could hear his cries for help the whole time). | |

Cluster F-Bomb: Everywhere.note We're talking about the show here, not Ozzy himself. HE averts this in his own music, but that has nothing to do with the show. Sound-Effect Bleep: Incredibly enough Ozzy prefers this version, due to the cursing being more noticeable thanks to the bleeps. | |

Drowning My Sorrows: Sharon's cancer and the huge success of the show took their toll. Ozzy relapsed when filming the beginning of season two and Jack and Kelly's partying developed into heavy addictions that sent them both to rehab. | |

Take That!: The last episode of the second season "Ozz Well That Ends Welll was all staged. In the episode, Jack kills Minnie in his sleep and he, Kelly and Sharon leave the house for good, leaving Ozzy all on his own. At the end of the episode, we hear a director yell "Cut!" and we see the whole crew and Sharon, Kelly and Jack with them. On the DVD Commentary, Sharon said that this was to get back at people complaining that the show was scripted and staged. | |

Loud of War: Sharon and the kids started one with their noisy neighbors in season one. Ozzy proceeds to end it by throwing a chunk of firewood over the fence into the noisy neighbor's yard. Glass shatters, Ozzy wanders out of the bushes, and the episode ends with police car sirens wailing in the background. | |
