    So that's what the stupid ad is all about. I wasnt quite sure what was going on.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,274 ✭✭✭de5p0i1er


    I heard nothing but good things about that show it's suposed to be very funny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,154 ✭✭✭✭Neil3030


    Oh it hurts. WHY do I get a sharp stabbing pain in my head everytime i think about this upcoming series? Well if it is anything like the time cribs visited the ozzbournes where we learned that:

    his wife is shy as ****,
    he is a loser
    his kids are weeners



    Its obviously subliminal advertising for the ozzfest tour.

    I know MTV is tripe but seriously, a fly on the wall series on the lives of a family of freaks? C'mon!

    Oi! They're an inspiration to the rest of us freaks! You know you wish you were them!! If everyone in the world was like the Osbournes the world would be bliss! But no, the world decided to be skangers!

    ive managed to download few episodes and from what ive seen its gonna be great. Ozzy trying to operate a remote control is priceless and his gawking at the mobile phone when it rings is like it was some kind of a extra terrestrial. :)

    "WHY IS IT STOOK ON THE WEATHER CHANNEL" and "WHY CANT WE GERRA NORMAL FOOKIN TV"

    ive predicted this was gonna be huge few months ago when the yanks started talking about it, so i decided to put all my money* in popex on Ozzy Osbourne shares. :) there is NO way i can lose. haha

    *standard 1000 shares on Kylie not affected

    LOL :p:p
    i saw that clip on that Friday Night With Ross programme on the BBC and it was hillarious. this show is going to be a classic. i hope the MTV UK + Ireland don't ruin it by bleeping out bad words

    Reading the EPG info from the Osbornes night on sunday im not 100% theyll actually show the programme.It says something like"MTV celebrates thge osborne phonemon that is a hiut in the states".But its not exactly"Tonight the premiere of the osbornes".And it goes on till 1am.Surely they would be showinjg an ep every week or every night instead of a pile altogether.
    Never EVER trust anything those bastards at MTV say.They havent a f-uckin clue.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    they're showing several programmes featuring Ozzy Osbourne. stuff like Cribs and Behind The Music but The Osbournes is definately being shown this Sunday at 10pm. the MTV press release said so anyway


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    sadly my last post was a load of rubbish. due to contractual reasons MTV UK + Ireland have had to postpone The Osbournes :mad: . 2 fingers to them, i'm going to watch it on MTV Central :)

    Never a truer word spoken. I blame lack of competition for mtv being so crappy.

    I blame MTV. Those bástards play about 10mins of music per day. It's just like every other channel now with jackass, tom green show, cribs etc. etc. etc.

    [hippy]I thought it was about the music man! When did it stop being about the music??....man i got the munchies![/hippy]

    Damn you MTV UK and Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,967 ✭✭✭adnans

    This show is SUPERB. Best fly-on-the-wall style docudrama I've seen in years. The whole family is dysfunctional but yet strangely likeable... It's basically a quite dysfunctional European family transplanted to LA, and you can't help but like a character like Ozzy while at the same time laughing at him.

    Fantastic show. Well worth watching on a whole load of levels.

    I hope MTVUK remove some of the ott bleeping of swearwords when they show it though, that's bloody annoying in the american broadcasts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,004 ✭✭✭The Gopher


    I fail to see how the same company can have contracural problems with itself:confused: Its probably just a stalling tactic-knowing MTV UK they probably lost all the tapes of the series i some routine fluck up that we have all come to associate them with.I think its about time that the main MTV channel was either axed or seriously made over.The only MTV chanels that serve REAL music fans are MTV Base and MTV2.MTV Hits is a load of gay pop songs and other such ****e.MTV main channel is just a joke,a parody of itself.I feel sorry for all the Dubliners on NTL who must put up with this channel.They should drop MTV on analogue and replace it with Kiss,MTV Base or MTV2.Channels that real music fans actually want.Not 24 hours of nsync anD god knows what else ****e on MTV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    i saw that coming soon ad again today. some how i feel coming soon is not soon at all. more like we'll show it when we want to.

    anyone who has a dish pointed at 19.2 degrees east can watch The Osbournes at 9pm tomorrow night (Saturday 18th) with no censoring of bad language. it is on MTV Central


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    Just saw it there, it's bloody great. Man that bit the remote control is something special "space age shit", priceless.

    Brilliant.

    Although worryingly, my mother also loves it. She's now decided to swear as much as Sharon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,274 ✭✭✭de5p0i1er


    Missed it tonight I was bumed about that if it lives up to the hype it should be good.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper


    omg this was just class. loved every bit of it. nice to see it was shown uncut.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 999 ✭✭✭DrunkLeprachaun


    I watched it. It was alright. It was hardly the second coming od christ(or the antichrist), like some of you seem to think it was. I'll probably watch it again next week, but I waon't have a hernia if I miss it.
