Ohio Family Plays Role In New OSBOURNE Show

November 18, 2008

Aaron Beck of The Columbus Dispatch reports that the Osbournes' yet-to-be-named variety show, which a Fox spokesman said would air early next year, marks the return of the first family of heavy metal to reality-TV land.

Part of the program involves the Osbourne clan living in the world of other families who share the Osbourne name — or a name spelled almost the same.

"They said they were picking six families to do . . . (shows) with," said Ohio's Brenda Landrum, whose son, 28-year-old Joe Osborne, is a professional bull rider. "They found Joey and then found us out of everybody in this whole world."

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, with children Jack and Kelly, "and one of their dogs and about 25 crew people," arrived at 10 a.m., said Landrum, whose mother's house served as the meal site.

"Ozzy looked good!" said the homemaker, 46. "Oh, my gosh! I'm serious."
