The Robertson family are excited to continue filming Duck Dynasty after it was announced yesterday that network A&E would be lifting the ban placed on patriarch Phil Robertson less than two weeks ago over homophobic comments he made in a GQ article. In a statement to FoxNews.com, the family said they are 'excited to keep making a quality TV show for our dedicated fans, who have showed us wonderful support. We will continue to represent our faith and values in a positive way through "Duck Dynasty" and our many projects that we are currently working on.' 'The outpouring of support and prayers has encouraged and emboldened us greatly,' the family added.
