“Duck Dynasty” reality star brothers Jase and Jep Robertson are headed back to TV with the “Duck Family Treasure” show on Fox Nation where they will be joined by other family members.
“Each episode will feature the Robertson family as they search for precious treasures, rare artifacts, and hidden gems,” the official logline reads, reported Deadline magazine in a piece published Wednesday.
“Throughout their journey, the Robertsons will also showcase the people, places, and lessons they encounter along the way,” it added. “Missy and Jessica Robertson, Jase and Jep’s wives, and other members of the Robertson family will also be featured on the show.”
The sons of patriarch Phil Robertson will also be joined by fan-favorite Uncle Si Robertson as they go on a treasure hunt on the 10-part series this summer. Judging by the original “Duck Dynasty” series it’s guaranteed to be full of crazy adventures.

“Since adding the coveted Duck Dynasty series to our platform in 2020, the response from our subscribers proved they were in the market for more,” Fox Nation president Jason Klarman shared in a statement.
“We’re proud to offer this original one-of-a-kind show in addition to our already extensive library of lifestyle and entertainment content,” the statement added.
The Robertson’s reality series first debuted on the A&E network in 2012 and ran until 2017. It followed the experiences of a Louisiana family known for their duck-hunting business, which they started from the ground up. They weren’t politically correct, and they celebrated family and God. It was a huge success.
The patriarch of the family, Phil, has never been afraid to speak about issues that might lead to being canceled — something he experienced early on in the show. He ended up being put on a brief hiatus following calls to have him taken off the air over an interview he gave to GQ Magazine in 2013 in which he labeled homosexuality sinful, reported the outlet. The 75-year-old reality star said he had “just quoted a Bible verse,” reported Fox News at the time.
Robertson recently spoke to Daily Wire’s “Morning Wire” podcast to discuss that incident and his newest book — “Uncanceled: Finding Meaning and Peace in a Culture of Accusations, Shame, and Condemnation.”
The Daily Wire reported:
Robertson explained he was “fired” from “Duck Dynasty” in 2014 for quoting the Bible in response to a question about whether gay marriage was a sin. He was accused of hating all gay people, and lost advertisers due to boycotts, costing A&E $10 million. He was placed on “indefinite hiatus” and he did not retaliate against his enemies, but turned to the Bible for guidance.
“Duck Family Treasure” will air on Fox Nation in June.
