As well as devoted Duck Dynasty viewers think they know the Robertson family, there has been one key member missing from the show during its first three increasingly successful seasons. But that all changes in Season 4 (slated to premiere in August) when Alan Robertson — the oldest son of Phil and Kay — finally joins the cast, the New York Post reports.
