The Osbournes

The Osbournes is a reality television program broadcast by MTV in the U.S. and broadcast uncensored by CTV in Canada. The show features the domestic life of Ozzy Osbourne and his family. It premiered on March 5, 2002, and in its first season, was cited as the most-viewed series ever on MTV.

In addition to famous Black Sabbath star Ozzy, the show features his wife Sharon; his son Jack; his daughter, fledgling singer Kelly; and, since the second season, his adopted son Rob. His other daughter, Aimee, has refused to participate in the show, and publicly criticizes her parents for their antics on the show. In most family photos shown on the show, she is either absent or blurred.
