I like them because they are not afraid to stand for what they believe in,

People like them because they have the Judeo-Christian values this nation was founded on instead of spinless crap we get out of hollywood and Capitol Hill

I think Americans are starting to miss the old pre-”diversity” and pre-”multicultural” America. It takes us back to when America was America and not the sewer for the world that it has become.

From golfing at a private club and returning that nite to raid a water trap for it’s abundant Amphibian inhabitants,
that’s funny right there!

Because the Robertsons and the Simpsons are the only functional families on TV. And the Simpsons are cartoon characters. Its good to watch a show that has happy, loving people for a change. And no homos.

Phil recounts a miserable episode early in his marriage to “Miss Kay” when his drinking and all-night partying almost ruined the lives of the whole family.

And so the attacks begin...

1. They are a real FAMILY who sticks together and

2. Built their own business, doing what they love doing

3. They’re CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES who believe in the same things our founders did and STILL live that way.

-I for one wish I could be them.

They are just traditional American normal, sincere and earnest men and women of their word.

With American culture having devolved into such a vomit-inducing sewer, it’s probably like a refreshing liferaft to encounter something that actually speaks to some traditional values and mid-american sensibilities. Qualities the entertainment industry long ago deserted, other than to condescendingly savage. That’s my guess.

....because they are not phony. They are who and what they are without shame, with confidence with simple unpretentious pride mixed with a good deal of humility.

The following is an article from ESPN with comments from several people that knew Phil
from college forward. It gives a little more perspective of Phil and what he really was like.

How good was Phil Robertson at football?

Mrs Biased and I don’t like the show... I like that those guys are family oriented and self employeed millioniares and have Christian values... but the show is just another reality show and I don’t like it cause reality shows are just scripted and the scripting in this one is worse than most.

I've tried watching it, got through the first 5 episodes so far. Its "ok", and I will watch more episodes as I find the time, but its not something I would make time to watch.

I really like Phil, the patriarch of the show, he has that backwoods Zen kind of sense to him, and the way he talks.

I do think that much like most "reality" TV, a lot is contrived. I have heard that the family members have really altered there appearance in order to better fit the idea of the show. Also, you hear them talk, and you can tell that none of them are as "dumb" as they might be trying to portray.

All in all though, I like them, and I like the program, just not my favorite thing on TV, but I give it a thumbs up.

I saw it for the first time last night and thought it was hilarious, and good, and fun. I really enjoyed it.

I saw about half an episode and I didn’t get it either. Just ordinary people doing ordinary stuff. Maybe I should start a show.
