At least 16 affiliates didn't air it and another 10 delayed it until late night (including the Salt Lake affiliate, for those who guessed Utah).

The show sucked which was no surprise since it was on FOX.

I wished Zakk Wylde would have come from behind the stage and hoisted his Les Paul and smashed it on the dude kissing the old lady for $500.


they should have done the show on MTV but with no comedy and focus on hard rock and heavy metal acts but MTV would never air a show about music.

Was this just a one-off special or is this an ongoing series?

Fox 4 in Kansas City didn't air it until 1 AM the night it premiered, because WDAF 4 was airing a 60th aniversary retrospective of their station. Kind of unfiar I wanted to watch it, but didn't want to stay up that late.

Maybe the stations who boycott such shows can start a trend & eliminate crap tv.

So are the ratings in for this? Was it canceled yet?

Looks like it was canceled before it aired.

FOX ordered six "episodes" of this, which I believe they planned on airing as occasional specials. Who knows if they'll actually air the rest.

FOX delivered its usual ratings win Tuesday, despite suffering a precipitous post-"American Idol" ratings drop with the premiere of its variety show "Osbournes: Reloaded which tumbled to 5.5/8, giving FOX a 9.3/14 average and second place.

According to zapit.com

Perception is bad in ratings, and this show did not deliver. They might burn off taped episodes they have. Glad I turned it off during the credits.

It didn't get 9.33m - that included 25 minutes of Idol. The "final" number for Osbournes is 8.4m, which would be decent except it dropped 2/3 of its lead-in (Idol did 24.41m). Between that and the fact that 10% of FOX affiliates either pre-empted the show or delayed it until late night, I question whether or not they'll continue airing them. I don't know if any others were even filmed yet. If not, FOX may decide not to spend the money on them.
