Duck Dynasty stars receive big salary raises right before Season 4 premieres

Duck Dynasty new season premiered last night on A&E TV with a surprise episode Till Duck Do Us Part.

Everyone comes together to plan a surprise wedding for Phil and Miss Kay Robertson, setting up a special ceremony on their land, which the whole family attends.

Si Robertson distracts Phil and Kay by taking them on a “trip down memory lane” to different places that were meaningful in their relationship.

It was also reported that the cast of A&E’s runaway hit reality series Duck Dynasty has received big raises right before Season 4 premieres.

After prolonged talks, the Robertsons will earn approximately $200,000 an episode to be divided among the nine adults and 11 kids. This is about four times more than what the family banked previously. The new deal also includes additional seasons of the series, and series/cast options.

Talks for a new agreement began in early 2013 and initially delayed production on Season 4. Duck Dynasty eventually began production while negotiations were still underway.

The Season 3 finale of Duck Dynasty was the most-watched A&E series telecast in network history, grabbing 9.6 million viewers and 5.5 million viewers in the adults ages 18-49 demographic.
