I just finished reading Phil’s book “Happy, Happy, Happy” and highly recommend it. (My tagline was chosen before I knew he had a book by that name.)
Duck Dynasty is one of my favorite shows. I have a massive crush on Jace, but they are all hilarious. Coming from Georgia, with hunters and fishermen surrounding me all my life, they remind me of my own family.
And I love that it has become so popular! Shows me most people do appreciate good, clean, and wholesome entertainment--if the TV producers would just have the GUTS to offer it! That's why I love PR's prayer for his producers!
I also recommend reading his book, Happy Happy Happy.
Long before Phil got the Duck Dynasty show there was an article in the La Tech alumni about him. He said he could always find a way to connect ducks and Jesus in reaching out to men. So he is the real deal and has been at this for a long time.
I like the folks a lot and own some early calls
But they play up the cliches a bit much
And border on silly
But they damn sure all married well
Southern women
Worlds best
I bought the DVD’s of the Duck Dynasty shows since we turned off Directv we don’t get any trash coming into the house.
I that alcohol is rarely consumed on the show going counter to the redneck stereotype as seen on “Moonshiners”.
Duck Dynasty videos and items available on line many places, including Amazon.com. Buy stuff and stick it to the bastards who consider them racist.
Here you can see what they all looked like before the beards: http://fb-troublemakers.com/duck-dynasty-before-and-after-the-beards-25-pics-20192/
Won't give it away, but he quotes Ronald Reagan more than once.
The family is a Christian family. Phil has done video interviews giving his testimony (not sure where they are but you can probably find them with google.)
Someone bought me the book Happy,Happy,Happy a few days ago. I read it in a couple of hours (yea, I can do that) and THOROUGHLY enjoyed it. Phil Robertson is a lot like my dad except for his misadventures at a younger age. Because of that I don’t think the Robertson family is a big deal because my family is a lot like them. What I do think is a big deal is that their ways and values are on television and THAT is a breath of fresh air.
DD bump
I don’t know which show is worse for society Honey Boo Boo or Duck Dynasty. I guess Duck Dynasty has some stupid humor with it.
Why is Duck Dynasty stupid?
They aren’t dumb rednecks, just rednecks.
The father and all but one son completed college. Willie has an MBA in business.
I never said that Duck Dynasty was stupid. I said it was bad for society and that some of the scenes are stupid. Huge difference. Honey Boo Boo is about the same as this show. The only good thing is only about 4 million watch the show over various sources.
The company? Obviously many more persons work there as well. Thus they have time to make a show. Looking at the size of the building and inventory I'd guess about 15-25 not including the brothers. Is the family sincere in their beliefs? Yea I think so and thus they do the show for money and to provide a show which families can watch.
It certainly beats the bombardment of naked morons placing themselves in remote areas which seems to be a show both History and Discovery are competing with.
Tonight I'll watch Mountain Men. One person I consider a flat out phoney. He goes out of his way to make simple things difficult. He also took a pair of horses into a busy city. After that is Ice Road Truckers. I like Alex on that show. The guy with the cowboy hat who realizes his danger and prays. Later on in the week Deadliest Catch comes on and I'll watch it.
