[TV] Duck Dynasty

In the Bayou State's backwoods, no family is more renowned than the Robertson clan. Years ago, Duck Commander, a grassroots company that sold hand-crafted, super-effective duck calls for avid hunters, was founded by a Phil Robertson. Something about his calls brought out more than game; raving customers have enlarged the business to a veritable empire in the hunting world.

Now, the company is headed by Phil's son, Willie, the current CEO of Duck Commander, and employed by the whole family and a fair portion of the local neighborhood. But it's tough to get down to business when the entire Robertson clan just wants to run hog wild. This is how Duck Dynasty is precluded, and where their ongoing story continues: about a family with adventures to unfold, opportunities to attend to, and enough money to make everything happen.

Willie is in charge of running Duck Commander. Much of his time is spent in the office making deals with potential clients or scheming some way to nab more money. He is frequently teased by the rest of the family for his prominent use of technology, and supposed lack of interest that would require being out in the wild or manual labor. Willie is married to Korie, and is father to Rebecca, John Luke, Sadie, Will, and Bella Robertson (though John Luke and Sadie are the only ones that get much air time).

Jase is Willie's greatest antagonist. A through-and-through redneck at heart, nature flows through his veins and "duckanese" runs off his tongue. Jase's favorite pastime is frog-catching, which he is highly proficient at, and is employed as the company's duck call "designer," if you will; he is a master at creating the best calls for the business. Whenever Willie appears too inundated with his technology, Jase is there to make a point about ridiculing his brother or challenging him to a trite contest between brothers. Jase is married to Missy, who are parents to Reed, Cole, and Mia Robertson.

Phil is the founder of Duck Commander, though he's passed the business down to Willie to run. Retired, he spends many of his days out on a duck hunt with Si, tasting his wife Miss Kay's delicious home cooking, or resting and quietly observing in his personal reclining chair. Based on his own experience, he believes the old, traditional ways of doing things have an uncanny way of working out in the end; he always seems to have an old adage or proverb to apply to a given situation, and he tries his best to teach his young grandchildren his wisdom and advice. However, because of this, he has a nasty disinclination towards change of any type. Phil is married to Kay, and is "Papa" to Alan, Jase, Willie, and Jep Robertson. (Alan is never on-air and Jep makes very minor appearances in episodes)

Unforgettable Uncle Si is the craziest of the Robertson bunch. A Vietnam War veteran, he constantly recalls war stories (which he insists he tells with “95% truthfulness”) or old quips that he believes are current, but have really died away decades ago, such as “Cowabunga!” or “It’s on like Donkey Kong!” Kind of like a reverse hipster. + Show Spoiler + Si is a man of mystery, constantly surprising even the eldest of the Robertsons with his quirks and odd talents. Like, he can sew, he can pontificate, heck he can even... uh... yeah. Si is Phil’s brother, and uncle to Willie, Jase, and Jep.

Miss Kay is not quite as “active” as the other members of the family. You won’t find her trouncing through the woods looking for beaver dams or hunting squirrels in the treetops. Where you will find her, however, is in the kitchen. Miss Kay is the master chef of the family, and most of her time is spent, admittedly, cooking up lots and lots of tasty food from the kitchen. While some see this as a deplorable occupation, Miss Kay truly enjoys it, thrives on it even; Phil married her not for her looks, but for her cooking, and she can cook reeeeaaaal good. Miss Kay has been the wife of Phil Robertson since the age of 16, and is mother to Alan, Willie, Jase, and Jep.
