Well the truth of the matter is that Season 4 had already been filmed and edited with Phil before all this happened, and A&E doesn’t want to lose its big investment. My guess is that there won’t be a Season 5 since I can’t image the Robertsons signing a new contract after the way they were treated by the network brass.

Put me down for a fiver on this, too.

The tide is turning back again, and you need only look at Australia, India, Uganda, Croatia, Nigeria, Russia, and now possibly Kazakhstan, to realize that’s the truth. It’s exactly why the sodomy lobby here in the USA are using flagrant Roland Freisler levels of judicial tyranny as seen in Utah in order to ram their agenda through as fast as possible.

Unfortunately, they are backed up by the blowhard Republican picnic class. Example today on Special Report.

George Will - “it’s inevitable! Republicans are DOOMED if they don’t endorse sodomy!”

Charles Krauthammer - “Old white people are going to die and young people love gays!”

Just pathetic. Thank God these guys got drowned out back in the 80s.

I reckon they don’t call ‘em a “dynasty” for nothing!

I’ve watched a few episodes of this show to see what all the rage is about. It was boring. Why is this show so popular? Yes,it is a good,clean show and the family is admirable but it wasn’t entertaining for me.

That being said, I support Phil and I admire his stance. He has guts. I’m glad he’s not backing down.

“I’ve watched a few episodes of this show to see what all the rage is about. It was boring. Why is this show so popular?”

Because it’s like having a beer or a coffee with your best friend after working with a bunch of assclowns all day. Not particularly exciting or interesting, but comfortable, relaxing and a relief to get away from the unrelenting crap that we are surrounded with on all sides.

BINGO! Season 4 with Phil is going to be shown when filming for Season 5 resumes. However, the A&E ban on Phil was for ALL FUTURE FILMING. They have not apologized nor have they announced that they are reinstating Phil.

A&E is trying to obfuscate the issue, but us poor, dumb rednecks is jest too stupid to figger out them smart city folk.

If these people continue their association with A&E, they have no further credibility. There are plenty of other networks, Glenn Becks for starters, that would take them in a heartbeat. And let them have greater latitude as to their content, religious and political.

If he does apologize the series will suffer an audience diminution, I think. I would hope they will just ride out their conract thn take it to a different network.

A&E better not make him apologize on air.

A&E doesn't have enough clout by several orders of magnitude to get Phil to apologize on the air.

I really like the guy. He's a man, not a metrosexual. And I would be totally shocked if he apologized for anything he said.

Or sit down the the UNGLAD clowns for re-education.

A&E has yet to make the hard decision on season 5 of DD. If they throw Phil Robertson under the bus, I am certain the Robertson family will walk. The problem for A&E and their advertisers: (1) the gays aren't going to replace all the money they stand to lose over this idiotic pandering to GLAAD and other homosexual groups; (2) the Robertsons have something that the suits at A&E don't — Christian family and moral values; (3) A&E needs to keep the Robertsons — especially Phil — or they take huge revenue losses; (4) the Robertson family does not need A&E because their success is assured. If push comes to shove, the Robertsons will throw A&E under the bus and the fans and customers will applaud their decision.

Yep, they poked a bear and didn’t like the result.

“Just pathetic. Thank God these guys got drowned out back in the 80s.”

Charles Krauthammer wrote speeches for Walter Mondale back in the 80s. He preferred Mondale over Reagan. He’s hardly a conservative- he just plays one like a lot of other neocon frauds.

He was excellent as Jim Jones. He’s one of those actors who is so natural in front of the camera,as if he’s not acting at all.
