Whether you love nature and the outdoors or prefer
sidewalks and skyscrapers, you are
pretty much guaranteed to love Duck Dynasty. If you are anything like me, and
just the thought of being in the woods or a marsh makes your skin crawl, then
Duck Dynasty will give you a taste of what it would be like to be a true
outdoorsman. The show focuses on the Robertson family, who became wealthy through
their family-operated business, Duck Commander, which makes products for duck hunters.
Since airing on A&E, Duck Dynasty has become extremely popular among even
the least-experienced hunters.
The cast of the show includes the Robertson men, Phil and
Si, and Phil’s sons Jase, Willie and Jep. All have long flowing beards and wild
untamed hair, which has become part of their image. The show follows them as
they make duck calls, go hunting and usually get themselves into a sticky
situation.
My favourite character is arguably Uncle Si. He always has
something hilarious to add to the conversation, and his comments usually come
out of nowhere. Besides his crazy hair and beard, he’s know for drinking hot
tea from a plastic cup and telling outlandish war stories. My favourite Uncle
Si moment has to be when he went to the kid’s school dressed as an elf at
Christmas, and explained to the kindergarten kids that Santa and the elves had
to eat a reindeer to survive after the sleigh crashed one year.
Duck Dynasty earns a solid 8.5/10 on the entertainment
scale. If you haven’t seen it yet, you are bound to come across a Duck Dynasty
Marathon one day soon.
