Quirky "Quack Pack"

( source:Wikipedia)

             

Duck Dynasty is the hit A&E reality show about a family of millionaire duck caller manufacturers from West Monroe, Louisiana. It's the number one non-scripted television series that People Magazine dubbed, "The Quack Pack." Patriarch Phil Robertson created the business forty years ago, and  his son Willie took over the reigns. Phil's brother Si works there along with his two other sons Jase and Jep. He married his wife when she was only sixteen, and his boys' beautiful wives were also their high school sweethearts.

 

The series is centered around the family business, as well as their eccentric hobbies. The Robertsons would sooner shave off their long and unruly beards than buy their meats, as hunting and fishing is in their blood. In one episode, Uncle Si and Jace created a special turkey caller, and set up a female decoy to lure the turkeys in. Afterward, they brought home two turkeys for a men versus women family cook-off.

 

Although their business is extremely successful, they can't seem to break old habits. Once Jase  pulled over to pick up some roadkill. The going rate was five bucks a tail, and he didn't want to miss out. In another episode, their mother Miss Kay insisted that her son Willie buy her goats from a petting zoo. When he initially refused she said,"You're not a real woman if you don't have a goat." Not only did Willie drive two goats home for her in his luxury Cadillac Escalade, but he turned his brother Jase's new office into a goat pen. 

 

They are never at a loss for side splitting quotes. Some website favorites include:
"First it's pretty tires, then it's pretty guns. Next thing you know, you're shaving your legs and wearing capri pants." - Si Robertson

"Where I come from you don't mess with another man's woman or his hat." - Jase Robertson

"There are two kinds of people in this world...the educated and the unducated." - Si Robertson.

 

Every episode has a message. For example, when their dad Phil was preparing his special frog legs recipe, he discussed his views on the perfect wife. He said that it didn't matter if she was homely, as long as she was a good cook. Fortunately, his attractive wife wasn't in the room at the time; otherwise, she would've dragged him by his beard, and fed him to her goats.
