* CreatorBacklash: Ozzy admitted in a 2009 interview that he was "stoned during the entire filming of ''The Osbournes"'' and can't bear to watch the show for this reason.



* DVDCommentary: From various family members. Season 1 features Jack and Sharon. Season 2 features Kelly and Sharon, until Kelly apparently quits halfway through and is replaced by Ozzy and Aimee, the daughter who didn't appear on the show. Season 2 and a half is back to Jack and Sharon. The commentary itself is generally made up of the commentators laughing at the show, telling the audience who the various and otherwise unknown people on screen are, and reflecting on how much has changed in the year since the season was filmed. The two outsiders, Ozzy and Aimee, are very different in their commentary however. Ozzy refuses to discuss anything outside of what is going on in the episode because, after all, its a [[ExactWords commentary]]. Aimee often berates her family for agreeing to be on the show and what effect it has on how the public perceive them. A good portion of the commentary could serve as a radio-play version of the show.
** It isn't much of a commentary though, because they haven't seen the show before and just watch it. You can tell because Sharon mostly says "Oh, I haven't seen this." over and over again. Ozzy tells Sharon to shut up and watch the show. Aimee asks why didn't they watch the show before doing the commentary. It could very well be one of the worst DVD commentaries ever.



* OldShame: Ozzy is ashamed of this show, and refuses to watch its episodes.



* RealSongThemeTune / CoverVersion: Pat Boone's version of "Crazy Train".

* Kayfabe: The cast of the original show prided themselves on the fact their show was not scripted like most of the ones that followed. However, The Osbournes is a large reason why most of them are now, since filming in this style took a lot more time (and money) to get enough usable footage.

* TakeThat: The last episode of the second season "Ozz well that ends well" was all staged. In the episode, Jack kills Minnie in his sleep and he, Kelly and Sharon left the house for good, leaving Ozzy all on his own. At the end of the episode, we hear a director yell "Cut!" and we see the whole crew and Sharon, Kelly and Jack with them. On the DVD Commentary, Sharon said that this was to get back at people complaining that the show was scripted and staged.
