    A&E's "Duck Dynasty" to be set in Scotland for upcoming Season

    So, the Duck Dynasty Facebook page posted a video about their upcoming season (which is set in Scotland), showing Willie Robertson galavanting around in a Royal Mile-piece-of--garbage. Ironically enough, (Though not very surprising) he's wearing the Royal Stewart tartan. He is wearing a sporran, but lest we all be relieved, it's a blue-based "dress" sporran with white and red tassels ('Murica). We can all be thankful he's at very least wearing the pleats in the back! Aside from the Irish music, and the Clan MacWalmart kilt, it should be very interesting. Hopefully, proper kilt-wearing can be displayed through this show's upcoming season, and maybe even feature some decent pipers.

    You can watch it here:

    I'm sorry to hear this. While I have never watched the show, I've heard/seen enough about it to fear that no good can come of this.

    Living in an area that absolutely loves DD, I am both scared and hopeful about this.

    In the preview (the "charge" scene) I see camo pants under the kilts of all but one DD member. However its apparent by the white hose, lack of flashes or sgian, there was no consulting the X Marks for tips. I must remind myself, television is for entertainment purposes only. But I soundly refuse to accept that any press (even bad press) is good exposure. Just the thoughts of a Southern born redneck with cultured tendencies.

    I have never heard of the Duck Dynasty and tried to open the link out of curiosity.
    The link is not available for viewing here in Scotland.
    Perhaps just as well.

    A dream come true!

    Out of the Louisiana bayous, into the Highland lochs. Drinking homemade single malt from Mason jars. From jambalaya to neeps and tatties. From duck calls to tin whistles. Another major cultural advance for all mankind! What more could we ask for?

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    OMG! Say it isn't so. It is a joke, right?

    Living in redneck arkansas this is a God-send. These people here practically worship DD and hopefully this will at least help them understand the usage of the kilt.
