The Osbournes get ready to rock with Banijay FAST channel in US, UK, Canada

The Osbournes channel includes fly-on-the-wall series The Basement Tapes

Distributor Banijay Rights is launching the first FAST channel dedicated to reality show The Osbournes across the US, UK and Canada.

The 24/7 channel will feature all seasons of the original MTV reality series, featuring heavy metal icon Ozzy Osbourne, manager wife Sharon and their children Jack and Kelly.

It will also host new fly-on-the-wall series The Basement Tapes, which sees comedian Amy Miller join the family as they rewatch all the episodes, taking a comedic look at their lives 20 years ago.

The Osbournes channel launches this month on Rakuten TV, LG Channels, Xumo Play, TCL, VIZIO, Sling Freestream, Plex, Anoki and VIDAA.

The launch builds on Banijay Rights’ recent activity in the FAST space, following last year’s roll-out of The Mr Bean Animated and Live Action channels.

Shaun Keeble, VP digital, Banijay Rights, said: “The Osbournes are not only one of the world’s most influential families, but their series is one of the most important reality series of all time – providing some of the most outrageous and entertaining TV moments of the last few decades.

“To leverage this show’s catalogue and launch the family to the FAST stratosphere is an exciting moment for us at Banijay Rights. We are sure new audiences will enjoy discovering this iconic family while fans of the original series will enjoy reliving their incredible television moments.”
