The Other Osbournes
By Amy Carlson
It's not surprising that the Osbournes have captured the hearts of Americans. After all, those foul-mouthed Brits have everything needed to pique our curiosity -- a pair of challenging teen-agers, a brilliant mother, dogs relieving themselves all over their million-dollar home and a fried, heavy-metal dad who could be the anti-drug campaign's
best weapon.
Rumors are flying about the show's fate next season. The Osbournes want to re-up, but only if the price is right. If they don't, there are plenty of other musicians waiting for their chance in the reality TV spotlight. P. Diddy? Sting? Please -- not unless we get to see an actual gunfight or Tantric sex session. But here are some stars we'd like to spy on next, and the way we imagine the shows would play out:
THE BONOS
Family: Bono with wife Ali Hewson, and kids Jordan, Memphis Eve, Elijah Bob Patricius Guggi Q and John Abraham
Rating: PG
Pilot: The camera follows Bono as he continues on his quest to feed the world, write another rock gem and drink as many pints of Guinness as humanly possible.
Emerging star of the show: God, in his first earthly appearance, snubs the Pope and says to Bono, "Yes, you are my favorite."
