Tksoard | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 11:03 am     I've taped The Osbourns and everytime Ozzy falls in the chair, I laugh so hard I hurt!! It never fails!!  |
Kaili | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 12:36 pm     I bet Ozzy's concerts will have much higher sales after this show- I look at him in a totally different light now. |
Yycgirl | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 02:16 pm     once the series is done, if anyone has a copy of it, i would be very interested in purchasing a copy... yah, i AM new to the board |
Soeur | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 04:05 pm     I can't wait to watch this show (on tape or when they finally sell the rights to Canada). His concerts are already very well attended. When we were buying tickets back in January the local ticketmaster was giving out chits in a lottery system and the people who got a chit were then able to buy tickets. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. We thought it was a perfect show and the feeling of love from the audience to Ozzy and back was palpable. Ozzy still shuffled around onstage but with brio. His singing voice is so beautiful and rich, it filled the coliseum. It has been a long time since I have been to a show where the afterglow lasted for days and days. Guys, I highly recommend going to an Ozzy concert. The tickets were $65./ea (flat rate) and it we got our money's worth. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 05:31 pm     On last night's show, after all the arguing, when sharon and the kids were in the hotel room and kelly was worrying that Ozzy really didn't want them there and said why are we doing this? and I thought it was cool when Jack and Sharon, but first Jack, said.. "for LOVE!" I also loved when Ozzy said the cat bowl was in the wrong place and Sharon said he was the only one who ever knocked it over.. and of course you KNEW what was coming I know he gripes about the house, but the one time they showed Sharon trying to vaccuum, Ozzy went ballistic about the noise. Could anyone tell what Ozzy was reading on the bathroom floor? |
Madelane | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 05:34 pm     It was something-OCK magazine, hoping to death it was ROCK. |
Kaili | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 06:29 pm     It was a music magazine- I can't remember the name but I have seen it before for sale. |
Misslibra | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 07:29 pm     Webkitty, thanks for the info. So his concerts are good. I guess MTV is showing towards the end of his concerts that is possibly why he looks so tired. |
Grooch | Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 08:05 pm     Ozzie & family is on the Howard Stern show right now on the E channel. |
Tksoard | Thursday, April 18, 2002 - 11:18 am     The Osbournes Pomeranian puppy, Pipi, has been missing for a month. They think someone stole it. Ozzy's put up a $500 reward for it. I hope someone has it and it wasn't hurt and couldn't get home. I hope they get it back!!  |
Grooch | Friday, April 19, 2002 - 08:44 am     From the NY Post: $10M FOR OZZY, $500 FOR PIPI By MICHAEL STARR April 19, 2002 -- ROCKER Ozzy Osbourne wants close to $10 million for another season of "The Osbournes" - but is offering only a paltry $500 for the return of his pet pooch, Pipi. The dog, a black Pomeranian which belongs to eldest daughter Aimee Osbourne - not seen on the show - has been missing from the family's Beverly Hills mansion for about two months. According to MTV's "Osbournes" website, the family is offering $500 "for any information leading to the canine's retrieval." Even MTV, which runs the site, is cocking an eyebrow at the so-called "reward" money. "The multimillion-dollar Osbournes might want to think about inflating the figure a little," reads the narrative. "Considering the celebrity status the entire family has been anointed with thanks to its popular reality program, the dog could probably fetch a higher price on [Internet auction site] eBay." Alas, a check of eBay late yesterday revealed that Pipi is not listed on the site. The MTV "Osbournes" site includes an e-mail link for anyone with any information on Pipi's whereabouts. AOL will also establish a special e-mail address for Pipi information -pipiosbourne@aol.com - sources say. Sharon and Kelly Osbourne broke the news about Pipi's disappearance during an appearance on Wednesday's "Live with Regis & Kelly." Sharon Osbourne said she would give "anything" for Pipi's return. |
Grooch | Friday, April 19, 2002 - 10:35 am     Has Sharon Osbourne Joined Rosie O’Donnell On Howard Stern’s Ess List? -- Jim Brachman Did Howard Stern have anything to do with the creation of the tremendously successful “The Osbournes” on MTV? Howard certainly seems to think so. Information is sketchy as of this writing, but there’s some kind of feud brewing between the wife of rocker Ozzy Osbourne and Howard Stern. Sharon Osbourne is credited with creating the highly original and entertaining program (“The Osbournes” is currently the most popular program on cable, reaching into between six and seven million American homes every Tuesday night). During a recent Stern broadcast, a number of callers informed Stern that he had gotten “ripped off” and that Sharon Osbourne (whose frequent presence on “The Osbournes” is a critical element of its success) took full credit for creating the program during a recent interview with Rosie O’Donnell (Sharon Osbourne is listed in “The Osbournes” closing credits). Stern didn’t exactly disagree with these callers. He refused to discuss it, though he kept taking calls from those who said it was so. The issue, of course, isn’t whether Stern said something like, “Hey Sharon, Hey Ozzy, how about doing a television show about what your lives are like at home?” Such a casual comment, offhand, doesn’t sound like it could possibly be protected. However, it Stern came up with an outline, or documents were passed back and forth – or if Stern suggested his own production company would do the pilot – some kind of contribution beyond “casual,” then perhaps there’s an issue as to just where the idea for this little gem of a television show came from. Stay tuned. |
Misslibra | Sunday, April 21, 2002 - 03:13 am     I hope some of you watch SNL (Saturday Night Live). They did a skit about the Osbournes, it was so funny I was crying laughing. The girl that played his wife Sharon sounded and acted just like his wife. Very funny stuff!  |
Suebee | Sunday, April 21, 2002 - 09:12 pm     Yea she even looked like Sharon |
Twiggyish | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 05:39 am     I loved the SNL skit, too. The "Ozzy" could only be understood when he sang..LOL |
Seamonkey | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 11:50 am     They will be on 20/20 soon.. wasn't clear if it was this week, but think it is closer to mother's day. |
Seamonkey | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 12:53 pm     Small article from the paper: 'The Osbournes' officially becomes MTV's biggest Hit "The Osbournes," the reality sitcom about rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his colorful family life, is officially the biggest hit series in MTV's 21-year history. Just under 6.3 million people watched Tuesday's episode,up from 6 million the week before as the series continues to grow. No MTV series -- even cultural touchstones such as "Beavis & Butt-Head" and "Real World" -- has reached such heights. MTV has been trying to take advantage of the hit, playing series episodes 15 times a week. "The Osbournes" has pushed aside professional wrestling as cable televisions biggest show, according to Nielsen Media research. MTV has prepared three more original episodes before its season ends. But it may try to use footage to create up to three additional ones. Every additional viewer just improves Osbourne's negotiating position. MTV is talking to the family about filming another season's worth of shows, but the Osbournes are reportedly concerned about tourists at their California home and may film part of a new season in their second home in England. |
Julieboo | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 01:23 pm     Does anyone know how long the family has been living in CA? I assume the kids grew up in England. Anyone know more? |
Ocean_Islands | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 01:59 pm     Why can't people understand what he's saying? I understand him just fine. |
Bbintervention | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 11:07 pm     I absolutely LOVE this show. I lmao every time! Just what I needed. |
Twiggyish | Tuesday, April 23, 2002 - 09:27 am     I was at the MTV site and toured their California home.. (shaking head) it's very unique. http://www.mtv.com/onair/osbournes/tour/kitchen.jhtml (Click on the "MORE" pictures link) I can't wait to see their home in England. |
Urgrace | Tuesday, April 23, 2002 - 07:49 pm     Ozzy and Sharon are too nice to throw out a bunch of squatter friends of Jacks! |
Misslibra | Tuesday, April 23, 2002 - 07:56 pm     I was just going to say Jack and the dog look so cute until the dog threw up... yuck!! Dill is a great example of a free loader. Jack tell him he is a free loader. Why is Jack inviting him back??? |
Hippyt | Tuesday, April 23, 2002 - 09:19 pm     I lost it watching the SNL skit. She sounded just like Sharon. I can too,my hubby loves it! It isn't that hard to sound like an English harpy! I can understand him too,Oceans!You just have to listen! Realllllly listen. I loved the discussion about Kelly going to the Gynecologist.Ozzy,"You brought it up!" |
