(Sleazeroxx) British rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his raucous family, former stars of MTV, are headed back to U.S. television as hosts of a prime-time variety hour in the works for the Fox network.

No precise air date has been set. But a spokesman for the News Corp-owned broadcaster said on Monday the show, featuring musical performances and comedy sketches, is planned for sometime in the upcoming 2008-2009 season.

Fox alternative programming president, Mike Darnell, told Daily Variety he hopes to launch the series with a Christmas special. Envisioned as a throwback to variety classics hosted in the 1970s by Sonny and Cher and by Donny and Marie Osmond, the show will reunite Ozzy Osbourne and his wife, Sharon, with daughter Kelly, 23, and son Jack, 22, last seen together on the MTV reality show "The Osbournes." - more on this story
