I think he's a better source of entertainment than most of what's on MTV to tell the truth. You don't see Ozzy have banana licking or wet T-shirt contests do you? You don't see Ozzy doing most of the stuff that is rampant on MTV. Did he use drugs? At one time, yes. Does he drink a bit too much? Probably. Does he curse too much? Maybe, but really it's in his speech as expletives more than it is as a suggestion to someone of the opposite sex compared to how the language is used on most MTV shows. Are his kids strange? Heck yes, but again compared to some of the rap artists and half naked teen queens on MTV, I'd consider them normal.

Point being, rock and roll might be a bit over the top, it might even be a little crazy, but compared to today's music and attitude, Ozzy is more like a 50s show than something on MTV

Except for the Osbournes ,I HAVE given up on MTV. Beavis and Butthead ran it's course. Except for the Osbournes, MTV is unfortunately a big source of gay propaganda lately...quite sickening. Unfortunately by watching Ozzy it may even further their cause. Back in the old days, MTV used to play music videos...then eventually it was everything but music videos. Jackass is pretty funny as well.

MTV stands for anything goes. All bets are off. Comparing some content there to other doesn't provide much value to me.

That's a frightening thought. Doesn't say much for the nation then if he is considered "lite" entertainment.
