h Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 CTV strikes deal for 'The Osbournes' By JOHN MCKAY Canadian Press TORONTO -- CTV has acquired the coveted conventional TV rights to digital television's runaway hit reality show The Osbournes, the network confirmed Tuesday. The wonky docu-drama, which is imported from MTV in the U.S., chronicles the behind-the-scenes lives of faded goth rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his dysfunctional but loving family. It will air on CTV beginning this fall. "The Osbournes are outrageous. They're compelling. They're original and they're hilarious," says Susanne Boyce, CTV's programming president. "They're TV's newest nuclear family and television may never be the same again." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimoe Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 I've seen most of the first 2 years of The Osbournes and the swearing is always bleeped out. MTV shows are always edited for swearing. It doesn't matter anyway. You always know what they're saying; it's kinda like watching the series Bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
