1. You have to hand it to these guys...

they got themselves a ton of publicity aimed directly at the people most likely to buy their products.

4. I'm just surprised they haven't started marketing their line of "wife-beater"

camo undershirts.



Someone posted a side-by side comparison of the family patriarch and Al Qaida beliefs... I wish someone with money would post that as billboards nationwide... It was truly compelling.

5. They've become the "Palin family" of the moment

2. Gee, if we keep up the protests

Those duck doofus guys might just go from Millionaires, to Billionaires.

3. Sweet

Love my Mossy

6. They learned the "Pawn Stars" lesson

Pawn Stars and Deadliest Catch before it were THE hottest reality shows but they didn't get much merchandise out. I think the Robertsons (and A&E) realized that they needed to get what they can while they can- the show has max 3 seasons left in it. It will peeter out, someone will get arrested, or the new thing will come along.

7. That might be true of the 'reality'

television show and related merchandise, but they have had a successful manufacturing company for many years.

(I do not watch their show nor do I own any of their duck or buck calls.)

11. Yes they also had a hunting show before this

I think they realized that the window for selling stuff could close at any time so they flooded the shelves

12. I was aware of the hunting show

but I have not seen it. I have a Mossberg shotgun. The only way I would buy one of the Duck Commander guns is if it was marked down to a low price.

13. In the Barbara Walters profile/interview of the top 10 folks of the year...

...or whatever that program was called - it said that they have OVER 2000 merchandize items

Tons of stuff: Clothes (pants shirts ties underwear baby-onesies boots/shoe/slippers, etc), jewelery, sunglasses, keychains, books, dvds, Christmas album, umbrellas, flashlights, cookie jars, cutting boards, aprons, wine glasses, dolls, Chia Pets, beards, camouflage recliner chairs, even a Duck Dynasty SEGWAY, and much much more.

Some of it is here: http://duckcommander.com/store

8. Somehow they have to find a way to get George Zimmerman involved in this show

They'd sell a quadrillion of whatever they wanted to sell.

The world is a very depressing place sometimes.

9. Oh, perfect.

Maybe the duck murdering fans of those duck murdering frauds will prove Darwin right and take themselves out.

10. It's all about the money
