How's Duck Dynasty a success story? For the channel, certainly. For the actual hillbillies in a way, since they got the opportunity of making a shitload of money they never dreamed about making. But don't kid yourself. The channel was looking for freaks in a freak show. If they hadn't fit the profile they would be the same as they were. It's not as if they achieved anything on their own. On that grounds it's no achievement at all.
You need to do your research. They had an outdoor show prior to DD. The year before the DD show aired they sold 60,000 duck calls (at $20/call = $1.2 mill gross). And that's only the calls. Didn't achieve anything on their own? Stick your uninformed opinions where the sun don't shine.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
