Once upon a time, TV stood in awe of Duck Dynasty pulling in significantly higher ratings than some non-reality shows, to the point that one member’s exile from the series made national headlines. Now, after five years and eleven seasons, the Robertson clan will finally hang up their duck whistles, at least on TV.
Just when you thought the whole Duck Dynasty thing was over, another controversy has erupted! Just recently the Robertson clan announced that they'll be leaving A&E, at this time no real information has been given as far as which, or what network will pick up the franchise.
'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson's suspension has ended barely a week after it began, and Ted Nugent is one of the many protesters he can thank for his reinstatement.
Well, so much for that. Following A&E's controversial move to "ban" 'Duck Dynasty' patriarch Phil Robertson from future filming after his comments on homosexuality in a recent GQ interview, and the resulting media circus, the cable network has officially reneged on its decision to bar the reality star from the highly-rated series.
Some fans of Phil Robertson plan to show their support for the embattled Duck Dynasty patriarch by eating at Chick-fil-A on January 21. They're calling their campaign "National Chick-PHIL-A Day," though the restaurant chain says it is not involved.
After making anti-gay comments in the most recent issue of GQ magazine, 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson has been indefiniately suspended from the show by the A&E Network.
Phil Robertson, the patriarch of the family of Louisiana hunters on A&E's massive hit show 'Duck Dynasty,' recently gave an interview to GQ in which he made some controversial remarks on topics such as homosexuality, world religions and race relations in his home state.
I read that headline and thought "Whaaaa?" OK, I will admit it to the world, I don't watch Duck Dynasty! I know, I know...you can't believe I don't watch "the BEST show on television right now." Seriously, I don't understand the fascination.
