Sorry to say I missed it tonight but it's a pretty good show. Ozzy and Sharon actually try hard to be good parents and it's fun to watch.

Anyone who would presume to impose his taste on others should shut the hell up.

If you choose calling watching that tripe taste, well you have none to tell me about what taste is.

Keep trying to convince yourselves that they are the losers, while you pack your lunches for tomorrow's work day in your cubicles.

Ah, you've stumbled upon it!! We're all jealous

Take note of this kids, whenever you dislike an entertainer or anyone who has a better lifestyle than you that makes you envious. Class dismissed. Oh, nevermind. Only complete idiots would accept that...

Yes, it was very puzzling. Especially the comments regarding "Can we go go home now" (Sharon) and "I don't have to say the f-word anymore?" (Ozzy)

I, too, am awaiting an explanation (MTV? Critics? Anyone?)...

Don't let the thread crappers bother you :)

So, it's official? The show really is fake??

Sweet justice! I can make an even bigger mockery of the fools who watch crap like that on tv.

And you know this how?

If only this last episode was scripted, why was the scene of Ozzy redoing lines until he got them correct aired weeks ago?

Next!

I know this how because if you've been following the news you'd know about their recent attacks by the media that the entire show is fake. The reason that they showed Ozzy redoing his lines from an episode way back when is because they have done simliar stints before, although they were alot less ambitious.

Next! </dork>

Your all really going to be in for a surprise when you find out Leno/Letterman/Connan/Kimmel and virtually every late night talk show in the world is SCRIPTED. Everything from the monolouge to the interviews. To me, that is more disappointing :brokenheart:

People People...

When someone calls you a name, don't lash out at them...

Just tell them...
"Oh yea... Well I'm rubber and you're glue... Everything you say bounces off me and sticks to you" :p

That will put them in their place and show them who the man is!

They even do retakes on some quiz shows.

Oh no! The sky is falling down! Everyone take cover!

pretty much every late night host makes jokes about reading from cue cards all the time. wheres the big suprise?

and everyone who replied just to say the osbornes sucks -- go get a life. if you pull that sh*t in a hardware forum you will get your ass handed to you, so why are you doing it here?

No, reading from the cue-card for a monolouge is expected. Whats odd is that the conversations they have have already been pre-rehearsed and made up before hand :eek:

They also do retakes on "Who's line is that anyway" for the most part it's improv but if the person stumbles or can't think of anything they start over again. (I was in the audience once)

Also, I don't think the osbournes are fake. if they were trying to hide the fact that the show is scripted, why would they air such obvious things to show that the show is fake? of course it was a joke on all the people who think the show is fake! besides, i think the show would be a lot more interesting if it was scripted. as of now, it's REALLY BORING TO ME. :p

Oh my god, you honestly mean to tell me that is fake? I cant believe it~! Im so :brokenheart:

I'm speechless..

Is it really possible for something on Prime Time TV to be fake, scripted, or bogus? OMG~! :( :(

Next thing you'll tell me Wrestling is scripted too..

I cant believe people like that sh!t. "oh i cant wait to get home and watch a cracked out family talk BS all day. oh how I wish my life was just like theirs"

I really couldnt care less pretty much every show is scripted and just because you found out its scripted does it really cut your enjoyment (If you had any)?

Sorry but I am really going to upset you now. Proffesional Wrestling is also fake and there is no Santa Claus and Easter Rabbit.

Yeah, I DO think this is a matter of taste. I don't agree with people who eat Hostess cakes, listen to Aerosmith, watch The View, read the National Enquirer, like Adam Sandler movies, etc., because their taste is different than mine. I also don't like Bergman films, Oprah, Michael Bolton, clowns, cottage cheese, Buicks, Kid Rock, the Lord of the Rings movies, or most sitcoms. None of this means I am smarter than people who DO like these things, or them smarter than me. Further, I don't think they have any more or less taste than I have. I like things as disparate as Howard Stern, Henry James, the Simpsons, Cambodian food, India Pale Ale, handmade lugged steel bicycles, the Coen brothers, Godfather I and II (hence my nick), and, yes, the Osbornes. I have a lot of education and life experience, and refuse to make any aplogies for my tastes to your or anyone else.

I just really take issue with anyone who believes that his personal preferences in entertainment makes him better than anyone else. If you hate the Osbournes so much, why even click on this thread, except for purposes of promoting your obvious agenda of self-aggrandizement? You aren't impressing me, for whatever that's worth.

Never wasted my time on the show nor do I ever intend to ever see it.

The Osbornes are perhaps the biggest bunch of low life no talent assclowns I have ever had the sad experience of watching.
