The Osbournes, First Family of Darkness is an absurd take on the animated family-sitcom asunconventional as the family upon which it's based, raising the question - what is a normalfamily? The Osbournes are an animated bunch - over-the-top personalities that wear their heartson their sleeves and love each other almost as much as they love pushing each other’s buttons.

Rounding out the cast is a world !lled with weird and wonderful characters that make theOsbournes seem almost normal by comparison - including a couch-sur!ng demon named Davewho lives in the basement, a family of undercover aliens living next door that nobody suspectsexcept Ozzy, and, of course, a house crawling with countless scheming dogs - each with theirown personality and agenda.

The Osbournes, First Family of Darkness combines the lovable charm of The Simpsons and thetake-no-prisoners attitude of Family Guy with the bold and bizarre humour of British hits likeThe Young Ones and Peep Show and current American sitcoms like Modern Family and TheLeague.

Stylistically, this is a stop-motion series that employs a range of devices; such as breaking thefourth wall and commenting to camera, POV shots with character voiceovers, "ashbacks togreat moments in Osbourne history and animated bloopers. This is a show as uniquely frenetic,!erce and especially funny as the characters it portrays - with storylines inspired by their real lifequotes, events or points of view. But while loosely inspired by reality, the storylines spin wildlyout of control in an animated world where anything can happen…

First Family of DarknessOZZY: I'm a family man. A husband. A father. I've been a lot of other things over the years,which we don't really want to talk about...

Ozzy Osbourne; Loving husband, devoted father, Godfather of Heavy Metal. Fortunately, he’sused to biting o! more than he can chew - with a list of transgressions long enough to stretchfrom here to the Alamo, upon the shrine of which he so famously relieved himself. Let's justsay that Ozzy is a man with demons. More speci"cally, a demon named Dave, who lives inthe basement and constantly tries to get Ozzy to return to his wicked ways. But although Ozzysometimes walks the line, he always eventually makes the right choice - because it’s hard to dothe right thing when you’re the Prince of darkness and admittedly still crazy - but damned if hedoesn't give it one hell of a try…

SHARON: As the fabulous and feisty managing matriarch of the Osbourne clan, Sharon hasmade a career out of saying exactly what she thinks - whether you like it or not. Sharon knowsthat it’s important to look your best and to be fabulous at all times, and she’s not adverse to anip and tuck to make sure that everything stays in it’s place - and speaking of putting things intheir place, you’d better not f**k with her family or she will eat you alive.

KELLY: As a best selling author, aspiring actor, ballroom sensation, advice columnist andall-round inspiration to girls around the world, Kelly "nally has it all - and there’s no way in Hellshe’s going to let her crazy family ruin it for her! Unfortunately, keeping them in line is a fulltime job in and of itself, leaving precious little time for a myriad of other projects. Oh well, itsnot easy being "erce - or for Kelly, doing two things at once! Which means she’ll sometimesshow up at a celebrity charity marathon wearing her ballroom dress and heels, or turn up ata book signing in costume thinking that she’s auditioning for a "lm role.

JACK: While some were worried about how young Jack would turn out, Jack has found ahealthy outlet for his thrill-seeking personality, and now spends most of his time chasing thehigh that only comes from freefalling with a grand piano strapped to your back into a poolfull of genetically modi"ed bear-sharks. The now clean-living Jack, is an adrenaline-chasingsurvivalist who knows that the only appropriate response to being attacked by a cougar is to"ght back. He’s the type of guy that is ready for the world to end - and probably the guywhose house you want to be at the day he’s "nally correct.

Supporting CharactersDAVE:Ozzy is a man with demons, or rather one demon - a demon named Dave. Dave is like an oldcouch sur!ng college buddy who just won't leave. He thinks Ozzy has gone soft and missesthe good old days, when he could just whisper any idea into Ozzy’s ear and it would beembraced. For example, he’s always suggesting new lyrics for Ozzy’s songs, which turn out tobe demonic messages when played backwards, and when Ozzy rejects them, o"ering up less evilcompromises like “run with scissors” and “always pet stray dogs”. Jack thinks Dave is kind ofcool, while Kelly !nds him a bit creepy and overly #irtatious. And despite his phony attemptsto get in Sharon's good graces, Sharon detests Dave, but was brought up to be a good hostess.Instead she treats him with polite disdain, which Dave almost never picks up on.

THE PROCTORS:Dr. Procter, a proctologist from Maine, is the patriarch of perhaps the most normal family inAmerica. Too normal - if you ask Ozzy, who is convinced that they are undercover aliens, hereto prepare for the coming invasion by studying the earthlings, outside and in! Everything aboutthem seems forced and fabricated - as if the aliens learned everything they could about ourcivilization from radio waves that took years to decades to reach them - which is why everythingabout them seems inspired by 70s & 80s TV shows. Like their 2.5 kids, Joanie, Chachi and Alf(Alf is the .5 kid, a genetic experiment gone wrong.)

THE BAND:No self-respecting rock-icon is complete without a great supporting band, and Ozzy is noexception. His basement recording studio hosts some of the greatest up-and-coming heavymetal rockers, that all come with their own baggage. For example, Blaze Burnside, a skinny rakeof a guitar player with a propensity for starting !res. During gigs, Ozzy must always have anextinguisher on hand, as Twitch can barely wait for the encore to set his guitar ablaze. And ofcourse, there’s old Geezer Garside, former Sabbath roadie, and now the worlds oldest giggingdrummer - his midset drum solos are something to behold and frequently put him into cardiacarrest. Fortunately he is permanently hooked up to a de!brillator.
