qoute from fan mail feb/march 2005: " suppose I could also have started with the subject that had the most
people talking for the past month... "WHAT THE HECK IS DEVIN DOING ON
MTV/HBO/VH1 !!!" which has been a very common comment in recent days. In
early December we received an email from the MTV people that they would like
Devin to "star" in the ad campaign for the final season of The Osbournes.
After the obvious "Pardon??" and "Why me???" questions, he agreed to fly to
New York a few days later for the filming. It is a series of five ads where
Devin plays himself as an elementary school teacher directing a school play.
The first clip is Devin introducing himself and the play as a tribute to
Ozzy, the "Prince of Darkness". It proceeds with a team of child Osbourne
look-alikes acting out scenes from the TV program. Devin does not appear in
the third of the series but is back for the fourth. Here he is in a tuxedo
as the conductor of the school "choir" leading them in a vigorous rendition
of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs". The fifth ad has Devin conducting the same
children in singing SYL's "Bring on the Young." The whole experience was fun
and a little mind-blowing. He has an all-new respect for actors and highly
praises the kids he performed with."

Did anyone ever get the other 4 on the net? It seems strange that no one ever taped any of the others.
