I decided I was going to try and survive what would surely be the biggest prime-time stink-bomb since the Brady Bunch Variety Hour but I didn't make it past the first commercial break. It was every bit the torture I expected and looked like it was just going to get worse. Sharon must know their days are numbered and is just saying "Yes" to any damn thing they throw out at them. This show was literally like a gigantic middle finger stuck right out at every decent human being and then shoved right up our collective poop-chutes with no lube.
Did any braver souls than I make it through the whole episode?

OK -- I've never seen The Osborne's first show (nor had any interest), but you made this sound so bad, and when I read at IMDB that various stations refused to show this thing, I figured I'd look it up on HULU. I could barely get to the six minute mark of this abomination. It makes me want take my brain out of my skull and scrub it clean.
It's as if someone watched IDIOCRACY and said: "Let's make this REAL".

Yikes. I sincerely apologize. I have to cop to actually enjoying the old Osbornes reality show; it was a train wreck but it was funny- at least at the start- and had some heart to it. But let me state for the record that based on the above testimony this current show is something that should not be sought out if you were wise enough to avoid it.

I managed to go the distance. I just had to remind myself that I'd made it through the Paul Lynde Halloween Special, and I found the strength to carry on.
God it hurt. And not the good hurt. I really didn't get anything positive from the whole experience.
I think i got one laugh, and one smile, out of the whole damn thing. The rest of the time I was too busy gritting my teeth and ducking things the lady of the house was tossing at me for convincing her to watch it. I don't know what her excuse was for watching all of it with me instead of fleeing the room. Maybe she's a closet masochist.
