"Duck Dynasty," the hit show following Louisiana bayou royalty, is quacking back to A&E this summer, with two new seasons planned.

It was music to the ears of fans of the show and family, but there was some heartbreaking news that came out of the announcement, too. Per Deadline, Phil Robertson, the patriarch of the family, won’t appear on the series after it was announced late last year that he is battling Alzheimer’s and other health issues.

After eight years off the air, “Duck Dynasty” is returning to A&E with the new series “ Duck Dynasty: The Revival.”
