Toddy

You had an orgasm over nothing. Which it appears is how you have all your orgasms, but I digress.
quote:

NEW YORK (AP) -- Nielsen says "Duck Dynasty" drew 8.5 million viewers for its fifth-season premiere.

That audience was slightly higher than for October's fourth-season finale of the A&E reality show.

So when the 4th season ended in October 8.2 million viewers tuned in. Then after Phils comments and the spineless response by A&E, 300,000 MORE viewers watched the season 5 premiere.

And you interpret that as the gays are winning? Because 'only' 300k more tuned in?

Unfortunately, toddy is right about one thing. Gays are winning. The courts just forced same sex marriage on Oklahoma, even though the people of that state voted to ban ssm by a 3 to 1 margin.

The controversy didn't help, but it wasn't going to last much longer anyway. All they had going for them was the novelty of it, and they had run that into the ground.

8.5 million watched this season premier, vs 12 million who watched last season premier.

So?

300,000 more watched in Jan than in Oct

Those others had left before the controversy even started. 300k came back in support

Try again. American Idol premiere ratings were the lowest on record.
So what? How did American Idol do on its season premiere competing against DD?

Its 4.7 rating, 15.2 million viewers still leads night, is higher than show's most recent finale

Why are you so heterophobic??? And ignorant?

We Tivo it and watch every episode eventually. Haven't seen any of the new season's stuff. Lucy will wake up in an hour and we'll watch Judge Judy from Friday and Duck Dynasty.

When she's on her off week she'll watch the 20 episodes of "How to kill your husband...true crime stories."

She never watches those when I'm in the house but I see them on the Tivo List.

After reading this whole thread, im pretty sure the poliboard has gone full retard for the day.


We need to all get off our computers/phones and go relax with a cold one. Take the night off and return in the morning.

Never watched the show. Don't care about duck hunting rednecks or butt pirates. But I care enough to post my position.

A lot of cable shows would kill for 8.5 million viewers.

I think it really has more to do with the fact that the show has lost its luster

It really isn't that witty or funny anymore. Boring imo

because Duck Dynasty is fake, these dudes are yuppies from the club playing dress up, nothing more, and now more people are finding that out.

Possibly. Also possible that people scared of the LGBT bullies didn't want to admit to the poll takers they were watching the show.
