We find ourselves watching repeats, just because it makes us laugh and feel good.
Sting like a butterfly, punch like a flea....(((ping)))
I like Jace and Phil.
I keep DD on for background. Moved this weekend and no cable yet... Not doing very well without DD.
Love Duck Dynasty. Now ask yourself, is there any connection — any connection whatsoever — between the core values of Duck Dynasty and that other smash hit TV show, “Gold Rush”?
Anything?
Bueller?
Gentlemanly ping to onyx.
I wanted to see what all the hubbub was about in what I was reading and convinced the wife we should watch an episode to find out. She scrunched her face but since nothing else of any value was on DirecTV that night, she relented controls of the entertainment wand (remote) and switched it over.
She has now made it her desire to own all of the season DVD’s and she retains control and sets up to all hours watching the re-runs.
The funniest I have seen is when Uncle Si handcuffs himself to Willy.
After about a month now of watching it, I looked to my wife and said, this is the new I Love Lucy.
—— . If anyone in America clings to God, guns, and religion, and did build that, it’s the Robertson clan. ——
Three things.
1) hehehehe...
2) Clans are cool. And it’s where we will have to go in post apocalypse America.
3) Willie was photographed with Sarah and Todd recently.
Hehehehe...
Tried to watch this twice. Can’t get in to it. Just another “staged” reality show.
They are my favorites too (Although I light up whenever Mountain Man makes an appearance. I could listen to him talk all day long.)
One of my Religious Ed students (5th grader) said ‘Happy, happy, happy’ to me yesterday. She’s a big DD fan too.
It is about the only show the whole family can sit down and watch without worrying about language or other objectionable material.
Exactly, cannot even watch ESPN or any chatter during sporting events with hearing about sodomites and how courageous they are...
We have a daughter who turns 15 next month. Too old for cartoons—too young for a lot of the stuff that constitutes ‘tv’ these days. She loves ‘Duck Dynasty.’
The Robertson’s and their friends and co-workers are good people. That is what sets them apart from other “staged” reality shows. They are the American dream writ large. They promote good moral behavior, love of God and family, and do it while having fun.
Sure the situations are mostly planned by producers and Uncle Si’s lines are probably fed to him, but like GWB, they are people you would like to have an iced tea with or bbq with or hunt with.
Never seen it but I do like Backyard Oil.
I personally know and have trained with and scritched the ears of said poodle. Said poodle is UH HRCH MHR Southern Standards Red Creole MH, first poodle to hold the top hunting retriever title in all four associations. His owner/trainer, Rich Louter, is the most patient dog trainer I know. All the dogs in that episode are his or his client dogs. When he started this gig, everybody laughed at the hunting poodles. They're not laughing now.
IIRC, poodles were originally bred as french retrievers. Over the past 100 years or so they have probably been bred for looks instead of hunting instincts, but it wouldn’t be hard to bring back that hunting drive.
I think the best was when Jase took off in the Motor Home to pick up Willy’s new ATVs.
He took a couple of workers and Si with him. They pick up the ATVs and they are hungry. Si looks thru the cubbards and mixes up a slurry of Pork and Beans, Tobasco Sauce and a few other methane producers. Next thing you know the gas leaks are so bad Si straps on a helmet and rides home sitting on of the ATVs that is trailered behind the Motor Home.
Of course explaining that to the cops that pulled them over was a laugh also.
I swear I was watching one of my Family Reunions...
