What’s better than a reality television cooking show based on duck hunting season? A reality television cooking show based on duck hunting season AND high-fructose corn syrup consumption—two time-honored American pastimes rolled into one!
Further proving that more is more, and that when it comes to Hollywood, success always has a formula, cable’s latest reality cooking show offering, Duke of Ducks, has just announced that a duck-themed cupcake contest spin-off is in the works for the fall lineup: Duck Cake Wars, starring Duke of Duck’s own Joelynne Wabash!
“I love cupcakes and hunting season and just getting out there and doing my public-speaking stuff, so this is a dream come true,” said Joelynne Wabash (rocking beaded bangles and matching bead-and-feather earrings, both by Walmart), who will now be moving to Hollywood for her new show. “And this is a big middle finger to everyone who told me I’d never get famous unless I got braces.”
Teeth aside, when you’re hot you’re hot, and when you’re not you’re not, and unfortunately for Hollywood’s longest-running reality cabler, Rolling with the Royces, there isn’t even a duck on the menu—unless you count the lame duck the show has become in the Lifespan lineup.
“I’m confident the Roycers will come out to support us for a sixth season, just as they have for the past five,” Mercedes Royce said, in a statement issued by her representatives. “Lifespan is part of our family, and the definition of family is the people who stand by you throughout the ups and downs. Isn’t it?”
Jeff Grunburg, Lifespan’s top exec, was unavailable for comment at the time of printing. His assistant, Dirk Daniels, did say this: “Rolling with the Royces is all about THE JOURNEY. And of course THE FEELS. And the CLIMB.” When pressed for clarification, he had no comment.23
