"Duck Dynasty" is a reality show on the A&E network that millions of people watch each week.
It follows the story of the Robertson family, which runs a company called Duck Commander. Duck Commander makes some of the best duck calls in the world.
This week, the show was the center of a huge controversy because the Robertson family patriarch Phil made some very derogatory comments about homosexuals. As a result, A&E suspended Phil from the show.
I had never heard of "Duck Dynasty" until everyone started writing and tweeting and theorizing about the show this week following Phil's comments. I had to check out what the fuss was about.
And guess what? The show is super entertaining. Ultimately, "Duck Dynasty" is a show about family, entrepreneurship, and killing animals.
I watched the first episode, which you can stream on Amazon Instant or buy on iTunes.
This is the Robertson family. They made a fortune with their company Duck Commander, which makes some of the best duck calls in the world.
This is Willie. He's the CEO of Duck Commander and Phil's son.
This is Phil. He's the one who made those controversial comments about gays. And just wait. He says some misogynistic things about women in this episode.
