Looks can be deceiving

I've mentioned one of our favorite TV shows before. Duck Dynasty is the real life story of the Robertson Family. The Robertson Family owns a company called Duck Commander in West Monroe, Louisiana. Duck Commander specializes in hand made duck calls and a multitude of other duck hunting equipment and accessories. The company is a huge success and the television show about this large family is a smash hit. Those two things combined make these people very, very wealthy.

At first glance, these people look like a bunch ignorant, backwoods hicks. Looks can definitely be deceiving. If you watch this show for any length of time, you will quickly see how intelligent these people are. These people have more insight into life than most people I know. The show itself is entertaining enough, but it's also refreshing because it's squeaky clean and they close the show each week with the family around the supper table praying. You don't see that much anymore. TV nowadays is full of sex, potty humor, blood and guts and a huge push of the gay agenda. What a breath of fresh air it is to see a family of God fearing people not afraid to be themselves living a simple lifestyle, not having to resort to trashiness to sell their show and to see them making millions of dollars doing it. I think this just shows there is a large (yet silent) portion of our country's population who do not support the current state of most television programming.

You go, Duck Dynasty!
