Willie and Korie Robertson’s entertaining book. So it’s refreshing to see a family that loves each other through thick and thin. How could a bunch of intelligent bearded rednecks who talk about God and guns all the time possibly be so popular? Um, maybe it’s because a large portion of Americans love God and their 2 nd Amendment right to bear arms, and they are tired of most of the trash that comes on TV. Many folks are upset that the Robertsons are “forcing their religion on them.” As Uncle Si might say, “Hey Jack, if you don’t like it, change the channel.” Some liberals in the media have been shocked by the success of the program. The Robertsons have come under fire for being so open about their faith. And I love that they are so willing to talk about their faith and end nearly every show with a prayer “in Jesus’ name.” I love the family values portrayed on the screen at a time when most shows tear down the family. I don’t like so-called “reality television,” but I have to admit that I have truly enjoyed nearly every episode of Duck Dynasty. I watched the program for the first time back in January, and I’ve been hooked ever since-I’ve even read Phil’s book ( Happy, Happy, Happy ), and Willie and Korie’s book ( The Duck Commander Family ), and I still plan to pick up Uncle Si’s book. In most episodes, these self-proclaimed rednecks goof around for twenty minutes or so before closing in prayer around the dinner table.

The Duck Dynasty program that focuses on the Robertson family and its Duck Commander duck call business has become a cultural phenomenon. Unless you live under the proverbial rock, you’ve heard about and/or seen the Robertsons.
