On July 31st, Marilyn Manson and his wife Lindsay Warner were among 110 invited guests of Ozzy Osbourne's nearest and dearest to attend his private funeral at his 250-acre estate near Gerrards Cross. Guests were sent a simple black invitation with a picture of a cross that read: “In loving memory of Ozzy Osbourne.” They were transported from The Crowne Plaza and The Bull in Gerrards Cross to the house at 2pm, with the service starting at 3pm. Pictures of Ozzy were dotted throughout the house and a photograph of him was given to everyone who attended to take home with them. A huge floral tribute was seen at the mansion that spelled out “Ozzy fucking Osbourne.” Fans left tributes at the gate of the estate. The ceremony comes just one day after Osbourne’s family and friends came together in Birmingham, England, for a funeral procession. At the private funeral on Thursday, a slew of famous musicians paid tribute to the heavy metal icon, including Osbourne’s Black Sabbath bandmat...
In October 2023, it was officially announced that a three-part docuseries on Marilyn Manson was in production and due to be released in 2024. This docuseries, called Marilyn Manson Unmasked, is produced by Lightbox, co-financed by Channel 4 and FIFTH SEASON, and produced in partnership with Rolling Stone Films, with FIFTH SEASON also handling worldwide distribution rights.
Most people who wanted to see Marilyn Manson Unmasked have probably already seen it, because for some odd reason it was released this past September through streaming services in Canada, New Zealand and Finland. However, a schedule through tvzoneuk.com was just released which informs us that Marilyn Manson Unmasked will finally be shown on television in the United Kingdom on Channel 4 on Tuesday, January 14th at 10pm. Whether the entire nearly three hour docuseries will air that night or over the course of a few days or weeks is not known right now, but it seems the January 14th date is the first day. I expect that after this initial television release the docuseries will be more widely available through some streaming service(s) for wider audiences.
I've been holding off writing a review of Marilyn Manson Unmasked until we heard this news, so expect my review before the release on January 14th.

Update 1/7/25:
Multiple media publications are finally reporting on the fact that Channel 4 in the United Kingdom will be showing the three-part docuseries Marilyn Manson: Unmasked over the course of three consecutive nights, from Tuesday January 14th - Thursday January 16th. A press statement from Channel 4 has the following synopsis:
"From his
meteoric rise as the self-proclaimed 'Antichrist Superstar' to the
chilling abuse allegations that have engulfed his career, this series
dives deep into Manson’s world to separate fact from fiction."
Of course, anyone can already see the documentary online if they want to, and the less people watch it live the better.
I will also post my review for each of the three parts over the course of those three days the morning prior to each showing.
Channel 4 also released a trailer to go along with the series, which you can see below:
