Sharon Finally #1 in Talk

Posted Aug 31st 2006 11:42AM by TMZ Staff

After trying with limited success in the talk show world in the U.S., Sharon Osbourne has finally broken through overseas.

Sharon's new talk show on England's ITV1 shot to first place in it's debut, with an average of 1.9 million viewers, peaking with 2.1 million. Afternoon chat rivals Richard and Judy averaged 1.6 million viewers. For her first episode, Sharon sat down with Penny Lancaster and "Coronation Street" star Debra Stephenson.

You may remember Sharon's talk show on this side of the pond, "The Sharon Osbourne Show." It lasted just one season.

2. Sharon is an ugly hag that has been redone by a plastic surgeon, Ozzy can sing but is otherwise a brain-damaged burnout, Jack is a stubby, ugly little dork, Kelly is a porky, stumpy , chipmunk-cheeked little noise maker... what a fucked-up family.

5. Actually, I LOVED Sharon's US talk show...she says what's on her mind and if you don't like it, that's not HER problem. I wish more people were that forthcoming. I found her quite refreshing, and her kids are like anyone else's kids. Anyone who doesn't realize that is in serious denial. She's honest about how she feels and what she says and that's what I LOVE about her. The insults I'm seeing here are just plain sad and uninformed...you ROCK, Sharon...

8. Bravo Andy ..honesty is usually criticized ...although everyone here is opinionated....they seem to have a problem with a celebrity who is!!! Makes me wonder when they speak both sides of their face..By the way...although we know Ozzy has had major drug problems.. ...if you really know the story you can research it.....MTV news...[can't recall what exactly it was now] he has severe neurolgical damage..stuttering..and shuffling when he walks...and seems to be hereditary...in his family....so give the guy a break...every star out there is a druggie...Sharon is great......love her.....

10. Sharon Rocks. The only reason her show didn't do so well in US was promotion... the A listers got signed to do Ellen - it premeired the same year as Sharon's show. And Sharon got left with UPN and WB stars. It would have been nice if she could have capitalized on the appropriate demographics for an Osbourne fan... She has insane ties into the rock and metal business... if she could have gotten more guests like ZAKK WYLDE (yeah, I know, he was on the show - but only for a song - not an interview). And when she had to take a LOA for Ozzy's accident. That didn't help. Anyways, she tried. She more than Rocks - she IS a rock. Best Wishes Sharon.

12. This bitch raised two rude drunks and drug addicts for kids. She has no business in the public eye! She should be ashamed of herself.

13. man, most of you got it right............this woman needs to be exiled from the united states and those messed up little brats fed to the taliban.....ozzy is weird, but at least it was his, he owned it......the rest of the family is a bunch of no talent hanger oners....the mother..if you can call her that , messed up on those kids big time. kelly should just run away and hope some circus will take her...and the boy,,,well, i suspect he will end up like marlon brandos bunch, just a messed up life....but that mother just keeps annoying people , now on that side of the globe...wish some plastic surgeon would finish the job...give her a penis and send her on her way, she can move in with rosie and live happily ever after
