Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 15–18

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Although the Osbournes are unconventional, they're a close-knit family, and you can tell they're having fun together. But the simple truth is that there's a lot of bad behavior here. In one segment, for example, when Ozzy's working in the drive-thru window of a fast-food restaurant, he lets his gum fall into some french fries and throws food at the customers.
  • Violence:

    Not an issue.
  • Sex:

    Skits and sketches sometimes contain sexually charged and/or suggestive material. In a "mystery guest" segment, Pamela Anderson "loses" the top of her dress, exposing her breasts (which are blurred out). In another segment, a grandmother strips behind a scrim that exposes her naked silhouette but shields sensitive body parts, etc.
  • Language:

    "F--k" (and variations like "f--king," "f--ked," and "f--ker") is used often but bleeped. "S--t" is bleeped, too. Audible words include "t-ts," "ass," "balls," "bitch," and "piss," as well as eyebow-raising phrases like "used condoms" and "like a whore in church." The family also throws the middle finger, although it's blocked by a small icon.
  • Consumerism:

    The show regularly promotes the Osbourne family brand, as well as Ozzy and Kelly's music.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Osbournes: Reloaded

Parents need to know that, although Sharon Obourne has described this variety series in interviews as "family entertainment," it's nothing like family-centric variety shows of yesteryear such as The Sonny and Cher Show or Donny & Marie. For one thing, there's a ton of cursing, and even though words like "s--t" and "f--k" are bleeped, they're used frequently by every member of the Osbourne family. There's a healthy dose of sexual content, too, as well as not-so-subtle advertising for the Osbourne family brand and plenty of situations that make the butts of the family's jokes look painfully ridiculous.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about whether this show is OK for families to watch together. Do you think it's really meant for viewers of all ages? Do the Osbournes remind you of your own family or any other families you know? If you've ever seen The Osbournes, the family's Emmy Award-winning reality series that aired on MTV from 2002 to 2005, how do the antics on this show compare with that one?

    Ozzy rocks! This show is great. A bit inappropriate but your kids should know about everything that happens in the show, so don't freak :) But, if your child is a bit younger, I'd recommend watching the episode yourself first.

    This a just a show showing The Osbourne's true child side...and believe me it is FABULOUS!!!!! This show is a lot of fun to watch and Ozzy is the bomb! There is a lot of cussing but most is bleeped out and the middle finger is blocked out. There is sexual references but i say appropriate for teens 14+
