First of all I love this show. Sure we all know it's not true reality but it showcases good values and clean entertainment which I don't see how anyone could be against.
I just don't see how they arn't smart...like the man you quoted said it takes intelligence to hunt/trap and, in this case as well, create an instrument that mimics the sound of an animal to better efficiently hunt.
I find so many people hate on this lifestyle just because it clashes with their's.
More than that, Phil, Jase, and Willie all have their 4 year university degrees (LSU iirc). Looks can be deceiving, but I'd challenge anyone who thinks they are "dumb hicks" to try and replicate their success.

Wait, I thought it was only Wilie who had a college degree. Jase I'm fairly certain doesn't, and Phil I believe only graduated from high school.
(I think those three are still pretty mentally apt regardless of their education.)

Kinda hard to only graduate high school if you were ahead of Terry Bradshaw in college football.
In fact, this is a picture of a younger Phil, pre-beard era.
Bradshaw wrote in his autobiography, It’s Only a Game: “The quarterback playing ahead of me, Phil Robertson, loved hunting more than he loved football, he’d come to practice directly from the woods, squirrel tails hanging out of his pockets, duck feathers on his clothes. Clearly he was a fine shot, so no one complained too much.”

So can someone explain to me what kind of stuff I'd see in an episode? Is it family stuff, business, or hunting? If it's hunting, do they ever hunt anything interesting or hunt in an interesting way?

It's mostly family/business. It's a show more than most reality shows, a lot of it seems staged. Yet once you get to know the characters, it's actually pretty funny. Some of the stuff they say is hilarious. You need to give it a few shows before it grows on you.

I know I'm generalizing just as much as he is but seriously...why is it that every other canadian that posts on this website hates america and anything they have to do with. And i'll stop before this turns into a "Blow some steam" post and derails the thread but seriously...It's just a trend i've noticed

I didn't watch it for the longest time because I just had no desire to. It didn't sound like something interesting to me so I avoided it. It's my opinion that I watch too much t.v. as it is so I try not to watch everything that is recommended to me.
However, after being pushed again and again to watch it, it wasn't what I imagined. I don't think it could be properly explained without watching a couple episodes. I can't vouch for anything past the first season as I've only seen the first handful of episodes, but I found them to be hilarious - and pretty interesting.
I just started watching, only on episode 4 but I love it. Will definitely watch out the rest. I wouldn't have found out about it if not for this thread so thank you OP.
