How Ozzy Osbourne has become the most authentic TV on “The Osbournes”

I grew up in Texas, Ozki Osborne and his imagination waved on the horizon for me.

Did you know that he was arrested in 1982 UrinOne of the most holy historical sites of Texas, which led to his ban that lasted for a decade of San Antonio (called “The Alamo City”)? If I grew up where I did, about 90 miles south of San Antonio, this strange relationship between him and the city was well known, and made him either a source of inconvenience or a few of the popular hero. He did something reckless with a cultural teacher, but when he was an angry teenager, he loved rock music and eager to the rebels, this did not make much impression of his music.

Fortunately, I also had an older sister who also loved Ozzy and would allow me to reach concerts, including OzzFest, who stops almost every summer – I have guessed – Saint Antonio. So when we heard that the prince of the darkness and his clan will get a realistic TV program for their MTV, a channel that was added to the main cable collection in our hometown only a few years, we knew that we had to listen. Thus we went with us, our daughter, and millions of viewers. Osborn. ”

What made the show different was that he did not hide the family really: they were loud, cursed, and cried, they were different – but it was clear that they care about each other a lot. We allowed us to see a new kind of TV, which was not appropriate for the template. When the show ended in 2005, this was the conclusion of the phenomenon of pop culture that launched television professions of Sharon, Kelly and Jack Osborn, making them family names in itself. Other rock stars followed Ozzy by launching their reality programs, but none of them approached the same attention.

Now with the news of Ozi’s death on Tuesday, I remember the great television writer, iPhone Villarreal, his television heritage and why he became a popular character.

Mira Garcia: Many years have passed since I went back to watch “The Osbournes”, but the cutting of them is still in my memory, perhaps because it was one of the first reality TV programs that I remember by watching religiously and something I am arranged and my sister. As a person who came from a very noisy family, Osborne’s hair is familiar to me. When there is a group of us together, the decibel readings pass through the ceiling – the dynamic of the family was dependent on the width. IPhone, do you remember when you first saw “Osborne”? How much do you know with Ozi as a music before the show?

IPhone Villarreal: My brother had people who had recently ended to watch the broadcast at the concert, which represents the end of both the Black Saturday and its professional life alone, and the vision of Osborn, fragile but on alert, with an emotional farewell to his fans from the throne where he sat on the stage, left me with an overwhelming desire to reconsider the MTV series. Heavy metal, I may not know, but reality TV … the reality TV I know. I found this on a major video and burned during the first season on the same night, as the rock star family, which was unusual and uninterrupted, was like 2002 again. Like you, Maira, I was part of the scenes that made the show a great success during its original run – sorry, right? I am still sure. However, after all these years, I was reminded that Ozzy, despite the well -being of the well -made prince of darkness, was the sun that brought brightness and warmth to the family chaos that revolve around it.

There was just a father with a skilled red hair, in an attempt to relax by coloring with some signs, as his daughter, Kelly, was from her brother Jack with the credit in the band she presented to him-“If you cannot work, ignore her. What can you do about that? What do you want me to do about that?” There was just my father was mixed in the kitchen, and Kelly told Kelly to ignore only the unwanted OB-Gyn appointment that her older sister, who made her on her behalf-“told her that she will reserve me as a date for a gynecologist; I do not mind.” There was just my father throwing F bombs around one of the numerous pets that you urinated or urinated on the ground for a hundred time-“Who was urinating on my carpet in the corpses? This bastard dog.

It was often without a shirt, and often angry with everything (which, now as an adult, I find it reliable), and made him many researchers, the ritual side by side with his stumbling, sometimes incomprehensible. For me – a child addicted to alcohol who was aware of the interlocking emotions of love my father, hated his shallows and thwarting the speed of this anger that the second could be made by that made me honestly laugh, and who was often – I felt Ozzy as if I was watching a copy of my father. He had his mistakes and was his past, but he was loved and loved back. More than Danny Tanner, HUXTABLE or Dan Conner, in for me A chaotic fact, Ozzy felt strange as the most authentic TV father.

Garcia: My father, like any human being, is incomplete, but he was always dedicated and calm – in full contrast to Ozzy. Perhaps this is what made “Osporen” attractive to me. He was a different father from me, and certainly a lot of wilderness, and he was not afraid to show warts and all of them, including his addiction issues. It was also great to see how he and Charun raised Kelly and Jack – who were constantly fought in the show – which may seem different from my upbringing, but he was actually universal. He was worried about what Kelly and Jack was wearing (I still remember him screaming in Jack to wear a shirt that said “cocaine” through the front), what they did, and those who commented with him and how they spent their time. They traveled with him on a tour, while holding on to rock stars behind the scenes, but they are still on the ground.

Some people criticized Ozzy to show this aspect of himself because as a rock star, there was a specific type of personality or mystery that people believed to be sticking to it. Frankly, he did not care. This is what I was and I could respect that, and I think it made me more aware that all families are different and there is no strict way to be one of the parents. We just all do our best, the curse on it.

IPhone, while looking back, was there a moment or a favorite episode that stands out for you?

Villarreal: I am still not continuing to monitor my country, so my memory is mostly formed from the small moments that occupy a valuable space in my memory-for example when I struggled to get a cloche on the position of pastries after the grabbing of cake They are made. Absolutely, he became disappointed because of its inability to make TV pass through Weather, to be completely confusing through the resonance phone at the same moment. The family play made it on its own. Of course, the link of the Show’s Run (2002-2005) has declined, and she was not immune to controversy and doubtful moments in the years that followed. But for thousands of years, the date was offered. As the first family -based reality offer, it became planned.

Is there a moment that stands out for you? How do you feel about the family sign of this type of reality TV and what they called, for the better or for the worst?

Garcia: Like you a lot, it’s these little moments like Ozzy Screaming, “Sharoooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn For a million time when he needs a hand or he cannot discover something. But they are also sweet moments such as when it helps in directing the Kelly profession of music or duet of “changes” in Black Sabbath (there are strong opinions about that song, but I loved it), moments of spending time with Jack and his elderly, Lewis. I don’t know what looks like to grow with a very famous father; I am sure it’s not easy. They seem to have achieved the best of it, although many disturbances.

I started following Jack and Kelly on social media most likely about a year ago because the algorithm fed me with one of their videos, and it was like getting to know these people who grew up. The siblings have matured, and they have their families and live a separate life from their parents. Sharon, who had her own dialogue program at some point, and later joined the “The Talk”, from which she left heterogeneous after an exchange with her teammate Sherrill Anderwood related to comments about Megan, the Duchess of Sussex, said things or participated in the opinions that I do not agree with. Kelly was criticized about her comments about Latin immigrants when trying to clarify Trump’s immigration policies in “The View”, though this I apologized “I will take responsibility for my bad choice of words,” he said.

But I believe that “Osbournes” made it clear to us that there is an appetite for people and families who do not comply with the cookie cutting template, and that was revolutionary at that time. I had a lot with Ozzy Osbourne, who paved the way that paved the way, which made the strange look … natural. This was the call.

Now we have lost not only the legend of music, but the reality TV star – and my father – who broke the mold.

Villarreal: Perhaps we should ask for borrito or Chuck a large piece of bone pork through some shrubs in his honor?
