The popular Duck Dynasty sitcom seems pretty off-the-wall to me, with its four scraggly-bearded “stars” and their otherwise Leave It To Beaver suburban homes, wives and children. Not to mention the family prayers. Yes.
Not that I have anything against prayer or redneck shows on the rube, even when the rednecks are Hollyweirdos only pretending to be rednecks—or, in this case, the likely sons and cousins of ZZ Top—but this one is bizarre. It has the spirit of gun-and-knife fanciers while chasing the peculiar ambiance of Seinfeld.
Very strange this 21st century thus far. But I knew that when Obozo got elected president the second time. On principle, I will resist the temptation to watch DD anywhere but at the link above, or keep up with it at this unofficial blog, and then only seldom.
