WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON????????

The whole show is all scripted from my understanding. That means for the last two years, I have been watching a scripted reality show. That means all the stuff we have been watching has been fake. But how much of this stuff actually is real? All the stuff going on seems so real. For the last two years, I thought thats how the Osbournes actually lived. So they tape an episode a week, and then the crew goes away? If all this is true, and everything is scripted, then that means that their Emmy must be revoked because reality shows are not scripted and this show is scripted. Someone has to explain this whole situation to me!

I dont think all the seasons were scripted,just this one episode.I think it was kind of a joke;to go out in a bang for the season finale.I could be wrong but I don't think that it was all fake.The real life occurences (Sharon's cancer,Kelly's career(if you could call it that),Sharon and ozzy going to the White House),all match the tv show.It would have to be a very elaborate hoax for the whole thing to be faked.

I remember reading a long time ago that situations are staged but the family's reactions and dialogue is real. Like the execs say "ozzy, call a family meeting. Jack be pissed about it". However a few of their lines must be fake cuz of the outakes last night or maybe they just make ozzy repeat himself cuz hes so hard to understand. In other words its about in the middle of a reality show and an improv show (curb ur enthusiasm).
Who cares anyway? It hasnt been funny since halfway through season 1 when mtv started plastering their faces everywhere.

But take into consideration: They only showed ONE outtake. If they had shown several, I think there would be definite speculation over the show's reality. But I don't think any of it, besides the last episode, was scripted.

We were all PUNKED. Don't be fooled, Sharon is the one running the show and she is one smart cookie. Think about it, they only did that to spark just this kind of debate. Now you question is this real? Of course it is (real). Look, if my kids acted that shitty all the time, I would want to put doubt into peoples mind that that was really how they act too. I mean NO ONE needs to see how family works. No one pays any attention to Ozzy as he stumbles about, Kelly is so spoiled you just want someone to slap her, Jack (wow) is a high school drop out who sleeps all day and mooches. Yes, I feel sure I would want eveyone to think that that was being written, cause if they really are they way, albeit we don't question the love there, you have to question what these kids have gained with the exception of weight.

Yeah I was wondering if that was going to be it of the Osbournes or that was just the season finale of season two and they are going to make season three thanks.
