Breaking the Rules
PJ Lifestyle » 5 Reasons Why Duck Dynasty Is a Great All-American Show: This is a nice summary of why I like them but don't really watch the show: they are in on their own joke. The thing that makes a reality show work is that the subject of the show does not realize how they are perceived. But on the Duck Dynasty I get the feeling that they are aware of the way they come off and play it up for laughs. The audience is supposed to laugh at them, not with them. They are too hip for their own show.
