Watch Duck Dynasty Season 5 Premiere Online, Free Streaming Video
Fans can watch the Duck Dynasty Season 5 premiere live online and see how the show addresses the offseason controversy regarding star Phil Robertson.
Robertson ignited a wave of controversy with an interview he gave to GQ late last year. In the interview, he said that men who have sex with men are sinful and implied that blacks were happy in the South during the pre-Civil Rights era. The interview prompted A&E to suspend Robertson, though his suspension was eventually lifted before any actual filming took place.
The episode is airing on Wednesday, January 15, at 10 pm on A&E, but will also be available online after the episode has aired. It can be found here.
Fans who watch the Duck Dynasty Season 5 premiere online will get a chance to see if the show gives a nod to the controversy, though it would not be included in the subject matter. The episode was filmed before the ill-fated interview, so any mention of Phil Robertson would likely come in the form of a disclaimer or special message before or after the episode.
Instead, those who watch the episode will get to see the typical Robertson family issues that have led to record-breaking ratings in the first four season, only this time with a new family member being introduced. A description for the season premiere read:
“When Rebecca returns home from her internship in Los Angeles, the Robertson family plans a big surprise party to welcome her back. But when Willie thinks Rebecca has no plan for her future, he becomes concerned, and decides to find out how Rebecca plans to earn her keep as a member of his household. However, Willie is happily surprised to discover that Rebecca is a real go-getter, much like him. Meanwhile, when Uncle Si gets sick, he seeks the help of Ms. Kay to take care of him, but when Si takes over her living room, Phil takes issue with his new houseguest.”
