The Osbournes Announce Reality TV Return

The Osbournes are headed back to our TV screens. Ozzy, Sharon and the kids will return to reality TV for the first time since The Osbournes wrapped in 2005, with the launch of the new reality series Home To Roost. 

The ten-part series, Home To Roost will see the family return to the UK, after twenty years of living in the USA. It will follow the family as they celebrate one of their most important years yet - with everything from Sharon’s 70th birthday to Kelly’s soon-to-be-born baby, Ozzy’s tour, and of course the big move itself.

Offering a slightly different approach to the groundbreaking and often chaotic original series The Osbournes, Home To Roost promises a more genuine portrait of Sharon and Ozzy as they face up to the challenges of getting older, but with the usual Osbourne eccentricities, humour, warmth and love.   

Home to Roost is being produced by Expectation and will air via the BBC across broadcast and digital outlets.  In a statement, Claire Sillery, the Head of Commissioning, Documentaries at the BBC shared “I’m delighted that the Osbournes will be sharing this next chapter in their lives with BBC viewers in what promises to be a funny, moving and honest insight into their new life in the UK.”

Home To Roost will be a collboration between Expectation’s Factual and Entertainment teams, Ben Wicks and Colin Barr, Creative Directors, Expectation say: “Rejoining the Osbournes as they return to the UK is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Twenty years ago, they shaped television for all of us - now they’re coming home at a different stage in their lives but with the promise of the same laughter, love and tears. We can’t wait to work with them and to share it with BBC One viewers in 2023.”
