A lot of exciting things are in store for "Duck Dynasty" when the Christian reality TV show returns to A&E for its ninth season on Jan. 13, Wednesday.

So far, preview clips are teasing that the series "isn't all fun and games." According to the Gospel Herald, the ninth season is called "Inlawful Entry" and will feature a visit from Missy's parents. Her father asks her husband Jase to take him on a quail hunt, but they were unable to catch a lot of quail. Their "bonding hunt," however, managed to strengthen the ties of the in-laws.

On the other hand, patriarch Willie is teaching his son John Luke how to develop some good business savvy. The two actually partnered up to create a snow cone business, but there are several hurdles the father and son tandem must face first before reaping success.

There will also be an episode where Jase struggles to care for his daughter Mia (who has cleft lip and palate) because his wife's plane has been delayed. Jase thought that all he had to do was drive his daughter to cheerleading practice, but his daughter informed him that he also had to do her hair and make-up.

"This duck dad may not know much about cheerleading & make up, but he'll always be there for Mia no matter what," the family writes on their Facebook page.

Fans are all eager for the show to return to television. A Facebook user named Chris Mears writes, "Love these people!!! Wish the world had a lot more folks like the Robertson family in it!! It's would be a lot better place!! Can't wait till Wednesday!!!! Duck Dynasty is my favorite show."

Timmy Pinkley adds, "I can hardly wait! 'Duck Dynasty' is the best thing on TV!"

A lot of people also appreciate how the Robertsons uphold their Christian values. "Even though I'm blind, I still like hearing Duck Dynasty and really enjoy all the Robertsons and their Christian values!" Billy Lewis comments.
