Television and film
Jase Robertson is one of the stars of A&E's reality show Duck Dynasty. He is portrayed as a foil for Willie Robertson, and often acts as a mischief maker. Jase said he thought that the show would never take off as a popular series. He stated in an interview with Fox News's Todd Starnes that:
I was one of the ones who said the reality show would never work...We were in the hunting world. I had this perception of reality shows that you had to have all this friction and fits of rage and four-letter words...We're pretty calm compared to that...We've got some crazy characters in our family — but I didn't think people would want to see that.[http://nation.foxnews.com/2013/06/14/starnes-exclusive-duck-dynasty-faith-family-and-facial-hair "Starnes Exclusive: 'Duck Dynasty' on Faith, Family and Facial Hair"], foxnews.com; retrieved June 26, 2013.
