It’s Another Ozzy Osbourne Ad. We’re Sorry.

Samsung enlists the head of the Osbourne household yet again to debut its Jack personal assistant handset.

In the spot, Ozzy makes almost-funny jokes about how the phone is more attuned to his needs than previous human assistants, which respectively had hearing problems (for obvious reasons) and kept odd hours (the daytime ones).

It is surprisingly not horrible. But in the event that brands race out right now with a mad hankering to book a seat on the Ozzy train, we’re at pains to remind you he’s got a full docket: World of Warcraft’s already aboard, plus Samsung’s planning still more spots.

The one-time dauphin-of-Darkness must be a helluva prince to work with.
