    I watch it and it is a pretty funny show although I am not a reality tv fan and it isn't really reality but anyway it has become such a hit on tv and it is everywhere right now and I have a resemblance to one of the characters on it that my wife is starting to refuse to go off with me. We went to Target and the cashier likes the show and ask if I would take a picture with her. I went to Alabama last weekend with a friend that plays music and didn't have to buy a beer because the 2 bars they played everyone was joking about me looking like "Willie" the character on there and buying me beer. Today my dad and I went to a car show and all he could do is laugh I took a picture with a family with 2 young kids 7 and 9 and a young lady selling raffle tickets at the car show. My dad told my wife and she said "That's why I hate going off with him!" I think it's funny and having my 15 minutes of fame being a local celebrity impersonator. My wife said "You like that, huh?" I said, "NO! I hate taking pictures with pretty woman!" :D

    Dynasty For Duck lovers

    This is another reason why our TV at home is not plugged in. We watched it a few time while with daughters family and again at son's place. The only character I like is the old man. He's funny and reminds me of some of the station wagon bunch. They must have about a million Chinese duck calls in that warehouse. No way they can carve them fast enough to fill that place.
    We had a family back in Pekin, Illinois who made Olt duck calls. Sort of famous with the hunters.
    Also I like the show about the swamp guy, the Turtleman, the car repo crews, and even Pawn Stars and Storage Wars. But after six weeks off and on I can wait another year for more.:rofl2:

    Not sure why, but I have absolutely no desire to see this show - even though everybody keeps talking about it like it's the best thing since Johnny Carson. I don't do duck huntin'. I don't do any shootin'. I don't try to imitate ducks. Nothing in it for me.

    I do think they should move the guys to maybe the Silicon Valley or somewheres though.

    I'm with you Krash. It amazes me of all the shows on now and yet the good comedies get deleted in a few episodes.
    There's another on about low bidding long haul truckers that is sometimes interesting. Only because I wished I'd done that after retiring.

    Watched the new season premiere on Exfinity today during lunch.
    Good episode and brought a tear to my eye while they were doing the wedding. Very special group of people. I can see why the producers thought this would work in this very degenerate and crass world.

    Anyone notice that they don't need to bleep out any bad words?
    Prayer on television, well I am all FOR it!

    Take it for the entertainment value and not as reality and it is funny. They do have great family values and at the end of every show they share the lesson of the episode as they are sitting down and saying grace at family dinner.

    My boss is crazy over the show so he no longer gives me a hard time about my hair and beard...people have a new respect for someone who looks like me since the show! :rofl2:

    For the record I looked this way long before the show.
