It has values! They begin and end with prayer. They don’t cuss and blaspheme. They teach their kids traditional values.
They are disguised as a bunch of grizzled Mt. men, but they have a message that America is longing to hear in comparison to the filth of the rest off reality TV!

I have tried three times to watch this show but for some reason I just cannot get intellectually involved/entertained. The only reality show I can watch is Deadliest Catch. Some of it is scripted but the actual work part is not and I have come to the conclusion they are crazy to do that work.

Heck a friend from La. told me even the gator shows are scripted and I would have thought it wasn’t. Dirtiest Jobs was a good one and Mike Rowe is a pretty good sport to do some of the crap he did. Money will only get me to do just so much as I will draw the line.

Don’t be surprised at the criticisms. Remember Jesus had his nit-pickers as well.

Correct. Every family has a few bad apples, but I don't see any, which is pretty remarkable.

I know that bad behavior could be edited out, but the producers' incentive is to keep bad behavior in.

They all seem down-to-earth, despite their financial success. The real "tell" is the grandchildren, who seem very sweet, especially Willie's kids.

At this point, I don't know what else they can show us. But I'm happy for the show's success.
