Hello Janis!

13 May 14 01:29, you wrote to me:

 >> Duck Commander and Buck Commander are in fact real companies...

 JK> Sure they are, that doesn't mean the work they do isn't just a bunch
 JK> of theatrics..

You better start checking out the sporting goods stores and such if you think
their products are fake?

 >> The beard thing is more than likely part of that brand.. But again
 >> those peopl are quite real..

 JK> Oh come on.. it's a TV show :)

Oh come on, you dont know what a brand is????????

I already said that the antics on the TV show are an embellishment, just like
the other reality shows, lets not forget that hardcore pawn probably carries
alot of embellishment..

But alas you have no idea what a brand is...

Girls wearing tight shirts, could be considered a hooters brand...

Remember McDonalds of of yesteryear when the help wore those silly paper chef
type hats, yes that was a brand...

Best Buys geek squad, white shirt, tie, black shoes and pant, nerdy look, a
brand!!


Those beards, a brand!

 >> Now the TV show as a "reality" show might depict them in situations
 >> that might not ordinarily occur without the cameras, but that does
 >> not make them unreal..

 JK> No, but but what they do on the show is all theatrics, just like any
 JK> reality show.. Those shows may not be "scripted" like a play, but all
 JK> of it is theatrics.  If it wasn't, it wouldn't be on TV <g>

But this wasnt your original contention..

The TV show most certainly bolstered their business, so much so that they had
to hire staff to keep up with production.

Your contention was that the bearded ones were fake.




 >> So except for the silliness of the TV show, whats not real about
 >> them?

 >> Oh wait, they are Christian bible thumpers, not card carrying
 >> lieberals!

 JK> And regardless, what I said about pictures existing of these guys
 JK> "pre-duckdynasty" in suits and close cropped haircuts is the damn
 JK> truth :) The characters they created for Duck Dynasty are  all staged
 JK> - if they weren't, there would probably be no audience :)


I've seen them too, its from their college and early married life days, before
"the brand"..  Hey you need schoolong on brands again, dont you???  Goto Home
Depot, those orange aprons, yes Janis a brand!
