There is one thing, however that cannot be ignored: the fact that the show's ratings dropped drastically in , after Phil publicly aired his views on homosexuality and his perception of the pre-Civil Rights era. The numbers don't lie, and viewers were simply tuning out following the controversy. The GQ piece ran between seasons 4 and 5; by the end of that fifth season, viewership had dropped by 2.
With their beliefs taking on a whole new light in the eyes of the public, the duck hunting family from Louisiana simply weren't the benign presence that they had once been in the homes of their audience. However, the Robertson family members, in these situations, are real people and not paid actors.
The New York Times has noted that their reporter spent some time with the Robertsons between the first and second seasons. The series portrays the lives of the Robertson family, who became successful from their family-operated business, Duck Commander. The West Monroe, Louisiana business makes products for duck hunters, primarily a duck call called Duck Commander…. It takes him about two to three minutes to make one duck call.
They are made by the Robertson family in Louisiana. Parts are sourced from other manufacturers, I do not know if any of them come from China as mine does not have made in China anywhere on it. Do you find this helpful? They make them in Louisiana at Duck Commander. Put simply it is all because of Duck Calls. The calls made by Duck Commander have proven that they have the most realistic sounds, are easy to use, and probably one of the better selling points is that each one is still put together by hand and quality tested at the warehouse in West Monroe, Louisiana.
He persevered at marketing, and his hard work paid off. Today, Duck Commander products, including a successful line of videos, are sold in all 50 states and in several countries.
Phil Robertson has also built a reputation all over the country for his faith and belief in the Lord God Almighty. He speaks to hundreds of different churches and organizations every year, explaining what the Lord has done for him, and can do for them.
Miss Kay is the revered matriarch of the Duck Dynasty family. What she says goes. Miss Kay believes her cooking talents are a gift which she must share, so she often ends up feeding all of the family and most of the neighborhood.
Her most famous dishes are banana pudding, fried deer steak, crawfish pie, and sticky frog legs. Using this degree, Willie has grown the company from a living room operation by the river to an outdoors corporate giant. Willie has been CEO of the company for about 10 years. Korie met Willie in the third grade, and got married a year after high school. While Willie enjoys making deals behind the desk, Jase would much rather be out in the swamp hunting ducks. Jase has been married for 21 years to Missy , whom he met in high school.
Jase and Missy have three children, one of whom, Cole, has been featured on the show. Phil affectionately calls this grandson "Cole Man". Si fashions the reeds that are inserted in every patented duck call.
He starts many sentences with his now well-known line " Hey! Jeptha "Jep" Robertson is the youngest of Phil and Kay's four sons, and the video expert in the family. He's married to Jessica , and they have four children.
The show mostly follows Willie and his beautiful wife Korie -- who claims Willie was "preppy" when she married him but she hasn't seen his face without its long beard in 30 years -- as the couple tries to keep up the business his father built from scratch. And this actually isn't the Robertson family's first soiree into television. Back in the '80s, Phil Robertson produce Duck Commander videos that featured his best duck hunts. His brother Jep still edits them.
Those videos and especially their long breads made the family minor celebrities in the hunting world. This way it's just more hospitable. We just invite the cameras and say, this is how we do it--like it or not!
