The Osblands - 
by madeyoulaugh
Tonight at 10 o'clock on A&E Gene Simmons Family Jewels makes its debut as we finally get to see what goes on in an aged rock stars home as he deals with an ambitious wife and children growing up in the show of a rock star family. How is this not The Osborne's? The Osborne's had funny accents. Ok, well that and The Osborne's first season was warm and awkwardly likeable and uninhibited as where the first episode of Family Jewels feels incredibly scripted, from the first time we see Gene designing his son's band's logo, to his 13 year-old daughter getting picked up on by much older men while playmate mom makes jailbait jokes.
If I clearly seem turned off by the show, why am I mentioning it? Because, the good people at A&E's PR company, have offered me some goodies to give away to you all. I have some key chains (lame) and autographed Gene Simmons Books (kinda cool) to give out to our readers. How do you win them?
In honor of Gene Simmons' KISSstorical past, lets paint faces. Send in a photo of your, your kids , or even your favorite gorilla showing TVgasm some love in the way of face paint. most creative entries will be featured on receive Gene Simmons autograph in a book!
Send entries in to madeyoulaugh@tvgasm.com. Family Jewels premieres at 10 o'clock tonight on A&E. (though after this show, they could probably lose the "E")

I commend anyone who paints their face as "the inner workings of the Chenbot".

MYL, I think it's safe to say that A&E lost the A when someone gave this show the greenlight. They can now be referred to simply as "&"

I never even knew until know Gene Simmons settled down and had a family. That's crazy. I thought he would be a bachelor all his life, and coming up with new marketing ideas. Metal Sludge trashed his "tongue" magazine.
