Best show on TV in my opinion. Of the three seasons I have been watching this show, I have heard one, thats ONE, bleed out of a curse word. Thats just the way the show is. I told my wife it would never last. Why? No pregnant teenagers, no drunken foul-mouthed rich kids on a 24/7 party. No nakedness. No teens glorifying slutty behavior on primetime TV. And they pray each episode over supper. GASP!!! Good Christian family people PRAYING on TV! I don't have Tivo or DVR or other such fancy TV things but my cable will allow me to "look back" or "OnDemand" previous shows. I watch it anytime nothing suits me on TV. Thats just about every day. I could go on and on with quips and "remember when Si..." for hours. It is VERY refreshing to see a family oriented show... with laid back attitudes and TRADITIONAL CHRISTIAN AMERICAN MORALS. Its success proves that not everyone wants to see a drunken pregnant teen.

A week or so ago some musician refused to go on the Jimmy Kimmel show because the Robertsons were to be on the same show. he is a vegitarian and said the Robertsons are “animal mass murders”. When Kimmel asked Phil Robertson about it he said people been eating animals since the dawn of mankind, but we'll pray for our neighbor anyway..That was a great comeback IMO. Kimmel then arranged for the Robertsons to do a spoof commercial for a new “carrot call”, look for it on youtube it's a nice dig on the idiot musician.

Brilliant show!

We thoroughly enjoy it for all the reasons you outlined and the fact that it promotes the American dream.

Dittos to that! It’s top of the list of the very few programs I watch.

Of course I also like Full Throttle Saloon, Honey BooBoo, and right now I have a Bonanza rerun on one channel and am flipping between that and live Racing At The Meadows, our local harness racing track south of Pittsburgh, on another.

I did not watch the Beards the first season. I decided it was just not my style. 2nd season ditto. then last fall, I decided to record one of the reruns. I'm hooked.

My wife and I tuned into the season 3 premiere to see what all the fuss was about, and after it was over she said “we have to keep watching this!”

These “reality” shows are always scripted and/or edited to within an inch of their life, but what isn’t scripted here is that you have a good old-fashioned US success story. Shows how evil the whole 1% rhetoric is - this family is now in the cursed 1% (and then some) and they got there by virtue of a good idea, hard work, and family values.

missed, or honestly, didn’t get into seasons 1 and part of 2, but HOOKED now! I love how the show ends - family around the table thanking the good lord for everything that they have. Great all around show, Jack!

I love this show! Glad I’m not the only one. Most of what I watch anymore is on the cable channels...Duck Dynasty, Storage Wars, Swamp Men, Axe Men and gold Rush...

“Viewers who have ducked this show thus far, assuming it’s just another mocking redneck display on the order of “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,” have it all wrong”

that’s what I assumed when I first heard about it. same old dysfunctional family and manufactured drama.

only been watching a few weeks. it’s a fun show, but it is very different to see a group of people on TV getting along with each other.

DD is my all time favorite show! I bought their book “The Duck Commander Family” ... or something close to that title. It tells all about the family and the early struggles and doesn’t sugar coat anything. The word bleep was a setup by A&E ... the Robertson’s don’t cuss per Jase (I believe). This is the best show on TV and ‘that’s a fact Jack’!
