The Osbournes' decision to stop by a sitcom comes a few weeks after Ozzy and his family revealed he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. The "Crazy Train" singer said he was diagnosed back in 2003, but he only recently decided it was time to share the secret.
"I'm no good with secrets," he said on Good Morning America. "I cannot walk around with it anymore 'cause it's like I'm running out of excuses, you know?I'm no good with secrets. I cannot walk around with it anymore 'cause it's like I'm running out of excuses, you know?"
Osbourne also postponed his North American tour to give him time to recover from his health issues. His plan was to travel to Switzerland for treatment, which would last until April. Last year, he took a scary fall, which aggravated the injuries from a 2003 quad bike accident.
"I've never had a year off in my life! I've never been home this long in 50 years! It's driving me mad, and I'm driving my family f— mad," Osbourne recently told the Daily Mail.
Sharon Osbourne has been a mainstay on CBS' The Talk, and is now the only remaining original panelist. Gilbert left in August 2019 to focus on other projects, including The Conners. She was replaced by Marie Osmond.
"Last season, I did The Conners and was also producing and [hosted] here," Gilbert said when revealing her plans to leave in April 2019. "I loved it and felt totally empowered, but also, if I'm being honest about it, my life was slightly out of balance. I wasn't able to spend as much time with my three kids as I'd like, or time for myself."
The Conners has become a popular one-episode stop for guest stars. Cheryl Hines, Clark Gregg, Jennifer Grey, Noel Fisher and Dan Aykroyd are among the actors who have stopped by.
"Woot! I absolutely adore these two!" one fan wrote on Instagram.
"This should be very funny! Love ya Ozzy & Sharon," another chimed in.
"How amazing," another added.
"The best news I've heard all day," another fan wrote on Instagram.
"NO WAY!" another wrote.
"Can't wait to see," another chimed in.
