A&E's breakout pro-hunting hit "Duck Dynasty" returned Wednesday night to record ratings. The season three premiere delivered 8.6 million viewers.I didn't even know who Morrissey is - or was. I had to google the dude. Here's what I found.
That's huge. It's not only the most-watched "Duck Dynasty" episode ever, it's A&E's most-watched telecast ever and ranks as cable's biggest reality show telecast so far this year. The 10 p.m. episode (the first of two back-to-back airings) was up 132 percent vs. the second season premiere. Plus, a full 5 million of the viewers were in the adults 18-49 demo.
The return of "Duck Dynasty" benefited from an unexpected gift-from-the-PR-gods when British singer and animal rights activist Morrissey cancelled his planned Feb. 26 performance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" at the last minute in protest of the "Duck Dynasty" stars appearing the same episode. Morrissey called the show's stars — who own a family business that makes products for hunters — "animal serial killers."
He is a beautiful, poignant poet/lyricist. Essentially, a Dr. Marten-donning pied piper to masses of brooding, romantic fatalists.WTF?
Another source:
He is a vegetarian and an avid supporter of PETA and animal rights. He once boycotted the country of Canada (yes, the ENTIRE country) for their practice of seal clubbing.I'm beginning to understand.
Popular opinion amongst fans and critics alike is that Morrissey developed his famous wail and "lonely, misunderstood outsider" persona quite early in life. Steven Patrick Morrissey was born on May 22nd, in Davyhulme, Manchester, to working-class Irish-Catholic immigrant parents. The doctors and nurses all agreed: Ma and Pa Morrissey's baby boy let out the finest crying any of them had ever heard. Surely this boy would grow up to utilize his skill to make a name for himself in a profession where whining and self-indulgent blubbering are welcomed and encouraged: the entertainment industry.Now it all makes sense.
So who would you rather hang out with? A depressed, self-indulgent vegan who wants to spoil everyone else's fun...
... or a bunch of bearded rednecks who hunt, fish, shoot, and drink?

Meat is murder. Tasty, tasty murder.
This Morrissey dude sounds like he fell outta the idiot tree and hit every branch on the way down, then had the tree fall on him.
Hey Bear - I like the "tasty, tasty murder" line.
Besides, plants have feelings too.
Morrissey is a tool of the highest order.
CenTex, you would love this shirt. I wear mine to BBQ cook offs. You should see the looks I get until they get up close. ;~)
Luv it. Do they come in XXL?
