Whatever footage those omnipresent cameras caught of the medical and substance abuse travails that landed the Osbournes in the tabloids and the gossip columns must have wound up on the cutting room floor. Instead, these 10 episodes that concluded the Emmy-nominated season 2 amp the Osbournes' hysterical dysfunctions to 11. The internecine warfare between siblings Jack and Kelly goes Fallujah in "What a Boy Wants" and "Fists of Fury," an episode that, according to one website, features 135 bleeped obscenities, which must be a series benchmark. But in time-honored, reassuring sitcom convention, family ties are reinforced by episode's end. When the dust has settled in "Fists," Jack and Kelly bond in the kitchen over Easy Mac. Nothing unites the fractious Osbournes like obnoxious neighbors, but in "Tennis Racket," not even Jack's drumming or Ozzy's stereo blasts can stop their incessant tennis-playing neighbors. Jack enjoys something of a breakout half season. He turns 17 and goes Medieval (Times) in "What a Boy Wants." He hooks up with Kurt Cobain's sister in "A Little Ditty About Jack and Brianne" (which also features the surreal sight of a panty-clad Courtney Love reciting Shakespeare!). Another snapshot for the Osbourne family album is Ozzy and Jack disrupting a fishing trip by lobbing firecrackers at birds in "Angler Management." Throughout, Ozzy is his delightful, addled self. In "Run Ozzy Run," his new car's voice-recognition system can't understand him (for viewers with the same problem, this DVD includes the helpful Ozzy Translator). In "What a Boy Wants," a dentist administers the "Ozzy level" of nitrous oxide, with debilitating results. The season ends with a Dallas-esque mind-bleep of Bobby-in-the-shower proportions that calls the reality of the series in question. How brilliant to give the Osbournes the last laugh on us. --Donald Liebenson

Series 2 1/2 (Not sure why they called it this; it is just as long as the other two) is so very, very good. We get to see more of the England house and all of the Oz's gold records. WOW! The series is typical of the family and is great fun. The only issue I have with it is the final episode, and I won't discuss it here. I am not sure if this was supposed to be a joke or a spoof of other reality TV series. I only hope that there are more shows in the future. NOT FOR KIDS!
Awsome DVD! May 30, 2004

The episodes are great as usual but are alittle slow at times. The last two seasons are better I think. The DVD's bonus material is what takes this DVD to the next level including bonus footage, a game, TV spots with Tenacious D, commentaries and a great photo gallery. The main reason why I wanted to buy this DVD was because Amazon.com listed that it would have a bonus episode:"Catching Up with the Osbournes". But yet it isnt on the DVD. I thought it would be a hidden easter egg, but never found it. Does anybody know about this??
wheres the rest of the season dvds??? November 28, 2005

It is another great season of the Osbourne family. I discovered the phenomena of the show late during February of 2004. The reruns brought me up to speed and influenced me to open up my heart to the bigger picture. If you are fond of the Osbourne family, you will want to collect the entire series. Wonderful ideas for a TV show and brilliantly edited. The tragedies and the triumphant joys are shared with all. Since their last season has yet to air as I am writing this, we may not know if the last two seasons are also going to be released either individually or as a special boxed set for some time to come. Enjoy.
 Not that good December 15, 2009

the funniest episode was the one with Cortney Love. The rest are more like deleted scenes that where put together into episodes. Some parts funny some not at all.
